During the 1992 game, when Gloria Estefan was performing, Fox had its popular show In Living Color do a live Super Bowl spoof, complete with a game clock so viewers could see when the second half of the Super Bowl was going to start and switch back to CBS. The episode of In Living Color was a huge hit. Ratings for the second half of the Super Bowl crashed 10 points.
The NFL learned this lesson: Don’t skimp on your most-prized asset. Enter Michael Jackson for the Super Bowl’s 1993 halftime show on NBC. The biggest act on the planet for the biggest game. The Super Bowl’s ratings increased 8.6% over the previous year, and just as important, NBC kept its audience during halftime as well as the game’s second half.

And the OGH think the NFL booked Gaga for halftime just to kill time
I find it hilarious when people try and drag Shakira for doing the World Cup every 4 years. One of the biggest sporting events want you performing at their ceremonies every 4 years and that's supposed to be a drag? Why aren't the other girls getting booked? Legends only I guess!
It's a good thing Pepsi didn't watch the Telephone video
ddd;
Taylor got screwed because she has an ongoing deal with Coke, though. This was just one-off product placement (and I'm pretty sure Gaga said the Diet Coke cans weren't actually placement).
Shakira would work really well with a lot of guests. Whenever Wherever, Hips Don't Lie, Underneath Your Clothes, Waka Waka plus two guest tracks with old rock legends.

Queen Gloria still performed for a second time in 1999
I really wonder what LG5 would be like had ARTPOP done well commercially. I feel like she's forcing herself to make music that won't sell well so she can avoid the mental breakdowns.
I totally disagree. I think this is the album she should have made in 2013 instead of ARTPOP. A song like Million Reasons would sell, especially if she had released it as the lead instead of Perfect Illusion. But alas it is not a single, and Perfect Illusion sucks. So what can you do.
Gaga's halftime will be a CMA sized mess and no one is ready for it
I can alreadg imagine the country versions of Bad Romance and Poker Face with a tacky huge american flag waving behind her and a bald eagle on her shoulder
ARTPOP would have done better if the media didn't screw her over with the Katy comparisons. Gaga got a lot of negative press leading up to the release of the album.
Of course, the Katy comparisons could have been avoided if Gaga didn't rush-release Applause when it started to leak.
It was just a bad, mismanaged era all around. But the media made it worse.

She said herself that she's not going to do anything boring because she knows people will get pissed.
