Prior to 2020's Super Bowl, some were contending that Jennifer Lopez, the pre-declared halftime entertainer, didn't "need" Shakira at the halftime execution. It was an odd confining of the account, without a doubt: pretty much every Super Bowl halftime appear in later has incorporated an appearance execution, shock or something else. Including another unbelievably effective, Grammy-winning Latina entertainer should just have been viewed as an advantage to the show.

Be that as it may, did J.Lo really get surpassed at her own Super Bowl half time by Shakira? Lopez, age 50 (on the off chance that you can trust it), is a triple danger. The popular star has a long music vocation, she's prepared in move (and fills in as a judge on World of Dance), and her latest job in the film Hustlers accumulated Oscar buzz. J.Lo's fruitful Vegas residency demonstrated how well the artist can hang (she may be more fit as a fiddle than anybody you know).

Shakira is celebrated in the U.S. for bops like 2005's "Hips Don't Lie" and "Walka Walka" the official signature tune of the 2010 World Cup. Be that as it may, she's an absolute powerhouse of music in the Latin music world. (She's the most-gushed Latina craftsman on Spotify). She likewise instructed infant vocalists on The Voice and has won 13 Grammys.

While Lopez has greater conspicuousness in the States (Lopez experienced childhood in the Bronx; Shakira was conceived in Colombia), around the world, Shakira rules.

On the night of the Super Bowl LIV, we saw why. Shakira opened the show with a phase brimming with artists rotating alongside her to "She Wolf." It just improved from that point; there was a piece with a rope that made them sweat.

While Lopez is obviously prepared and practiced, Shakira's development is so common. (As we probably am aware, her hips don't lie; that is still exceptionally clear). Shakira's moving looks simple – which it's not, however it should. She additionally calmly begins playing the electric guitar on the subsequent melody? What's more, later, we see her shaking out the drums. This young lady has levels.

Shakira versus J.Lo is a close unimaginable correlation: the two can sing, move, and perform

At that point, Shakira goes into a front of "Like It" that makes the first tune sound like trash (OK, that is a misrepresentation). Men in red suits turn out with metal instruments and do salsa for "Chantaje." Then, soon after "Hips Don't Lie" begins, Shakira does a full trust fall into the crowd, while her artists simply bounce for their lives in front of an audience. At that point she does a wild commotion with her tongue out into the camera. Since why not?

Have you at any point seen anybody making some better memories?! Not until the finish of her set, where Shakira jumps out of her ocean of artists, and karate kicks into the air. What a legend.

In contrast with Lopez's half of the show, Shakira had a few additional minutes where she as an entertainer was included: Shakira's singing ability, her provocative, sharp move moves–and once more, the part with the rope that made them feel some sort of way. In any case, at that point, her artists are similarly as enjoyable to watch: they're all solid, savage, and appear as though they're having a great time.

Lopez had a solid set; the lady can move. She has snappy tunes. Be that as it may, she can't shake her hips like Shakira, and her melodies aren't exactly as pertinent or exceptional.

The contrast between the two vocalists' Super Bowl Halftime Appearances

That being stated, Lopez had this going for her: SPECTACLE. The male artists with their sparkling sticks slaughtered the game. Lopez does a full outfit change into an extremely sheer jumpsuit, and afterward climbs a shaft in it. She turns around the shaft easily as she begins to sing the strong return, "Waiting for Tonight."

Be that as it may, we as a whole know the unwritten guideline of Dancing With the Stars is: the more scene you have around you (foundation artists, props, as it were: interruptions from the moving), the less capable the VIP artist.

Talking about interruptions, after a major dance break, a lot of kids showed out!

Lopez's little girl and a lot of other small young ladies in white outfits sing "How about we Get Loud" with her. The infant salsa artists are extremely adorable. In any case, we need to concede, we were psyched to see Shakira's astonishing artists come back to the stage all clad in gold, for the World Cup banger, "Walka Walka."

Lopez's sparkling minute is most likely her manically quick salsa. We likewise salute Lopez for singing "Born in the U.S.A." while wearing a coat delineating Puerto Rico's banner. (Reminding anybody that required an update: Puerto Rico is the U.S.A.). While Lopez was conceived in New York, her folks are Puerto Rican.

The two vocalists close out the show together, shaking their hips as the firecrackers impact in the sky.
