Super Bowl LIV saw Jennifer Lopez and Shakira putting out a powerful performance during the halftime show. The superstars made sure they honored their heritage while also making ensuring everyone grooved to their beats. While the songs kept TV viewers and the live audience entertained throughout half-time, many were disappointed with their choice of attire. 

Some people thought their outfits were unsuitable at an event that families watch on television. "The Superbowl is supposed to be an event families can watch together. Why, then, are we subjected to Shakira's constant twerking & J Lo's ultra-revealing outfits? Whatever happened to performers whose TALENT was entertaining instead of needing sex to keep people's interest?" read one comment.

"Was the Super Bowl halftime not dress rehearsal? These “outfits” by J. Lo are obscene," another questioned. Others thought that someone should have paid close attention to what JLo decided to wear during her performance as the comment read, "What the fuck am I watching #SuperBowl halftime show. J lo can someone get her an outfit next time where it doesn't look like she has duct tape on her ass..."

Meanwhile, there were others who were not happy about how Jennifer decided to incorporate pole dancing into her performance. Some wondered if it was necessary and took to social media to express their thoughts.

"A pole? Could women just perform and not channel strippers? Consider that J Lo and Shakira had to remove hair to wear those outfits. They are sexy enough. Could we have music/dance without it looking like a sex act? What are we teaching girls?" read the comment. 

However, there were some people who came to their defense and thought that the ladies put on a tremendous show. Meanwhile, there were others who were spellbound and admired how young both of them looked.
