Halftime Show Highlights: 50-Cent, Eminem Takes a Knee, and More

This year’s halftime show added a great performance to an already exciting game.

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, and Eminem took the stage at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium last night, entertaining fans all over the country with some of hip-hop’s greatest West Coast tracks, an elaborate architectural stage set-up, an incredible parade of talented dancers, and some unexpected highlights to make the performance unforgettable.

Some of those surprise moments of the show included an unexpected appearance from 50 Cent who performed his classic “In Da Club,” Eminem defying NFL organizers by taking a knee in support of Colin Kaepernick’s original protest in 2016, and a very happy Anderson .Paak on drums.

Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Blige, Lamar, and 50 Cent have now joined a list of impressive artists across genres who have played halftime shows, including Beyoncé, Madonna, Coldplay, Katy Perry, U2, Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, and Shakira.
