Under-the-Radar Stud No. 3 – Bruno Mars & Beyoncé
I couldn’t have been the only one who got a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach when it was announced that Bruno Mars was going to be a special guest during the Super Bowl 50 halftime show. It was Mars, after all, who headlined the event two years ago in a disastrous performance for the Broncos in New York.
Credit to Mars (and Beyoncé), though; they single handedly brought this year’s show back to life after Coldplay left the 114-plus million fans watching feeling like they were holding a cold fish. They were to the Super Bowl 50 halftime show what Kony Ealy‘s forced fumble was to the Panthers.
The Panthers offense went three and out on the ensuing drive; Coldplay eventually came back on stage and flatlined the show. But for a few fleeting moments, there were signs of life.
Don’t believe me? Just watch.
