DETROIT, MICHIGAN: Rapper Jack Harlow has been roasted mercilessly for his performance at the Lions-Packers NFL game at the Ford Field stadium in Detroit on November 23. The 25-year-old singer sang several of his hit tracks at the Thanksgiving game, but viewers were disappointed with his much-anticipated performance.

According to the New York Post, Harlow has been slammed since then for the "off-pitch performance, his bizarre backup dancer, and budget set." 

Here are some of the funniest memes roasting the singer.

The Detroit Lions lost to the Green Bay Packers 22-29. For many viewers, Harlow's halftime show was worse than the Lions' performance. One user tweeted, "Lions weren't the worst thing on the field." Another described the lackluster performance of the 'First Class' singer as an "atrocity." Viewers are annoyed with him for ruining their Thanksgiving.

Jack Harlow's miserable set

Users shared memes roasting the miserable set from which Harlow emerged for the halftime performance. He appeared from a white paper tent designed to look like an igloo, which was not up to the mark. Viewers think the NFL was ungenerous with the budget for the setting. One user trolled with a meme captioning, "Re-watching that Jack Harlow halftime show to make sure I didn't imagine that middle school set he was on."

Social media compares the crowd to Senator Mitch McConnell

Netizens shared a video of Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell freezing for a few moments during a press conference. One user shared the senator's video, saying, "The crowd during the Jack Harlow halftime show." According to the hilarious comparison, the crowd froze and could not speak anything, seeing Harlow's mediocre performance.

Bartlett police trolls Jack Harlow

Even the Bartlett police had their take on Harlow's unimpressive show. Sharing an image from the performance on X, the police gave a hilarious warning to the people, saying, "Please note anyone who doesn’t wear their seatbelt or speeds thru Bartlett this Thanksgiving will be forced to watch Jack Harlow’s halftime performance again - BARTLETT POLICE."

Comparisons with Dolly Parton's rocking NFL halftime show

Country music legend Dolly Parton put on a dazzling halftime performance on the same day for the Dallas Cowboys vs Washington Commanders game. The Internet wants Harlow to learn from the 77-year-old singer how to do a proper halftime performance. One user shared a meme mocking Harlow with the caption, "Dolly Parton Showing Jack Harlow How You Do A Proper Halftime Show."

Meanwhile, one user shared a video of Trump saying, "Take that son of b***** off the field right now. Out. He's Fired. He's fired." The user captioned the video, "Every grandparent watching this Jack Harlow halftime show."

Altogether, it appears the halftime show was unbearably boring to the crowd, who came expecting to enjoy a game at Ford Field. Two memes with the caption, "We watching this halftime show" and "Jack Harlow halftime show/crowd" showed the crowd's grim expressions.
