Some viewers who commented on the TODAY Entertainment Facebook page liked the high-energy performance, but many noted that it was hardly G-rated.
Maggie Harris Tome wrote, " I would love a Destiny's Child reunion, but felt Beyonce was over the top trampy. I was embarrassed to watch it with my 9 year old son."
Snarked Timothy A. Dixon, "The only thing that was missing was a brass pole and a bouncer that threw out the person who touched her when she was gyrating on the edge of the stage."
The leather outfits, worn not just by Beyonce but by Destiny's Child's Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland as well as Beyonce's back-up dancers, came in for a good deal of criticism.

"You can have clothes on, and still perform well!" wrote Mary-Jane Schips.
Reader Amber Dawn Burton defended the costumes, writing, "Fierce, energetic, tight choreography. Great to see Destiny's Child on stage again together. As for the negative comment about the costumes: ironic given the cheerleading costumes in the NFL are pretty much the same level of coverage. Women who fall into the patriarchal "family show" BS sadden me. You feed the machine."
But some viewers were already imagining how the performance would have played with the group who protested Ellen DeGeneres' recent JC Penney commercial.
Wrote Twitter user Jessica Lauren,
"This half time show is going to give One Million Moms a stroke ... hopefully."

Funny that some people think this is a "family show",But YASSSSSS at the KING getting these gorls HOT & bothered.I mean NOT only was there a commercial of a man in nothing but drawers,but there were commercials of Bar Rafaeli kissing a chubby nerd type,and another Hardee's commercial (if you get the memo).Still,the KING gets most of the attention.
They are so crazy! Thank goodness there is no such influential group in England!
The mothers must have freaked out that their children were watching something so provocative.
whatever happened to relying on your talent.
