coco Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I think we are all guilty of underestimating Madonna's appeal sometimes, especially when she has been away from music for a while. She is an icon unmatched in the world at the moment. so true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest astonishing! Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I can't believe she pulled in more views than the game itself!! That's amazing! And ofcourse, she outdid the last few year's performers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nonoka Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 But by the way, are you guys really sure the whole performance was lip-synced? The little Open Your Heart / Express Yourself segment sounded live to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollhouse Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) So the network would've been better of with 4 hours just Madonna? maybe those players as her dancers or slaves.. Edited February 6, 2012 by dollhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmic_system Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 No, it wasn't live, it was pre-recorded. I don't give a shit about it anyway, the show was AMAZING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtzlplk Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 i bet everything is pre-recorded... even LAP... but we all know that MADONNA and other singers are belting their hearts out even with playbacks... I mean, how can you perform like that with just opening your lips and no voice coming out... that would be too distracting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbie Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Unfortunately the 2012 Super Bowl did not break any ratings records. However, Madonna's half time gig got higher ratings than the game... Super Bowl 2012: Madonna Does A Higher Rating Than The Game by Matt Verderame Madonna is apparently still quite popular. The past sensation out-rated the Super Bowl, as her halftime performance generated a 48.3 rating compared to a 47.8 for the game according to reports from John Ourand. Despite two very large market teams being involved in the affair, Super Bowl couldn't break its own ratings record which was set just last year by Green Bay and Pittsburgh. Part of that is undoubtedly the very nice weather that the East has seen this year. With a normally bitter time of year upon us, people are much more likely to stay inside and look forward to the game. It's truly amazing that Madonna is still as popular as she is. Many people were annoyed that the NFL was bringing in another older superstar to perform the halftime show, but clearly they made the right decision. This Super Bowl did outdraw the previous match-up between these two teams as the 2007 game did a 43.1 rating. http://newyork.sbnation.com/new-york-giants/2012/2/6/2774984/super-bowl-2012-madonna-rating Incredible!

scrapple Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 By Matthew Perpetua February 6, 2012 8:25 AM ET MIA halftime super bowl M.I.A. gives 'the finger' to the camera during the Bridgestone Super Bowl XLVI Halftime Show at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. NBC has apologized for airing footage of M.I.A. flipping off the cameras while delivering the line "I don't give a shit" during Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show. "The NFL hired the talent and produced the halftime show," NBC said in a statement to the Hollywood Reporter. "Our system was late to obscure the inappropriate gesture and we apologize to our viewers." The NFL have also issued an apology for the incident, but placed the blame on NBC's censors. "There was a failure in NBC's delay system," spokesman Brian McCarthy said in a statement. "The obscene gesture in the performance was completely inappropriate, very disappointing, and we apologize to our fans." According to McCarthy, M.I.A. did not use the gesture in dress rehearsals for the show. M.I.A., a well-known provocateur, has not yet commented on her performance or its aftermath. The rapper did not fully enunciate the word "shit" at the end of the verse, which keeps her – and the NBC and NFL – in the clear in terms of avoiding a fine from the FCC for inappropriate language. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/nfl-nbc-apologize-for-m-i-a-flipping-middle-finger-at-halftime-show-20120206 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That picture was shown for what a half a second? Hardly anyone realized it. Certainly not some little children (who can watch all kinds of more dangerous stuff on a daily basis). These assholes make a big fuss about nothing. Instead of apologizing officials at the NFL and NBC should tell them: "You are wasting my time, go fuck yourself".
