Madonna and LMFAO perform at Super Bowl XLVI |
One word to describe Madonna's much-hyped Super Bowl XLVI Halftime Show Performance: Madjestic! The Queen of Pop may have had her worries about entertaining all of North America before their Television Sets/Computer Monitors tonight, but was she ever amaze!
Although mostly mimed, Madonna's performance was tight, fitting perfectly into the allotted 13 minutes which was complete with an army of Dancers, Gold Pom-Poms, some chart-topping Special Guests, and a Gospel Choir, as she zipped her way through a Medley of hits.
Madonna's Medley of hits included:
- Vogue performed in a Viking Queen ensemble
- Music including her doing Cartwheels, with a dash of Party Rock Anthem featuring LMFAO tossed in. Demonstrating her superior upper body strength, she did a couple leg kicks, holding the weight of her body up only with her often criticized muscular arms
- As expected, Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. joined Madonna on-stage for Give Me All Your Luvin' amidst of sea of dancers on bleachers.
- Cee Lo Green joined her on-stage for a snippet of Open Your Heart and Express Yourself with a Marching Band, before lending his soulful vocals on Like a Prayer, complete with a Gospel Choir.
Completely over-the-top. Completely necessary. People will be talking about this performance for years, even if some of the reviews online were mixed.
Oh yes, congratulations to the New York Giants! As I predicted on Twitter, the Team with the hottest outfits always win! Dare I say this is a double-win for Madonna, seeing that she's a New Yorker too?
