What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Broadcasting intimate details and useless information from an undisclosed location in New York City. The Last Show with David Cooper We are here with Caitlin Green to discuss the topic on some people's minds, the halftime show in the Super Bowl. I was going to make some like superb owl, super bowel. I don't know. Caitlin, welcome in. Did you watch the halftime show?
Did I watch the halftime show? I waited not so patiently for it to begin. And I adored it. I watched the pre-show. I made it through the coin toss. And then I just said to myself, this sport's boring. And I watched some other stuff and waited for the halftime show. Then I tuned back in and then I said, see you later.
Why sandwich an amazing performance with a little bit of boring, what is it, football before and after? Why bother with that is the great question.
And I can watch sports.
What did Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show entail?
I'm not one of those people who's like, I can't watch any sport, but this one is really slow. It takes forever and nothing. I feel like nothing is happening in the, I know people would tell me otherwise, but anyways.
So it was the Seahawks. Did I get one team right?
Yeah, it was the Seahawks versus the New England Patriots. The Seahawks won. Oh, wow. I knew that. By, I'm told, quite a large margin. Yes.
Okay, who cares about the, yeah, bad bunny, or as I should say, the best bunny. My only issue with him is it's the wrong name. It was quite a show, all in, well, except for Lady Gaga stepping in there for a second, all in Spanish, which is new. Walk me through what you made of it. I imagine I didn't watch it.
I thought it was fantastic. So essentially he only said three words in English. He said, God bless America. And it was really like a smorgasbord of Latin Puerto Rican culture. And it was, you know, dancers and it was, it was touching moments. They had a couple, a real life couple got married. at the Superbowl. So there was a couple there that like you see kissing, you just figure they're a prop, but it was actually a real life couple that had reached out to him and done one of those, like shoot your shot, ask him to perform at their wedding. And then his people came back to them and instead said, no, why don't you get on stage and get married at the Superbowl? And so they did. So there was the Lady Gaga portion.
Now that also is like a functional need of most of these halftime show performers to have somebody else tap in so they can outfit change. And I thought she did a really good job. Him and her have good chemistry. Like, I mean, she's just she's so professional. I thought maybe she was going to perform Alejandro, just saying if we were going to keep it more on theme. But she did a really good job. And then he had a ton like Ricky Martin was there.
Yeah. Ricky Martin did like a like a Puerto Rican, I guess, like kind of like oldie. Yeah. Which was so nice to see. I had seen him in that TV show. What is it? The one set in Florida with Kristen Wiig. Oh, I'm losing my mind here. Yeah. palm royale okay he did kind of like so so in that i think and so i was like it was really nice to see him do an amazing performance because the last time i'd seen him he was just so so it was a lot of fun you know the grass that so it started with like like what was it uh fields with workers like working in the fields yep those each blade of grass shrub of grass was a person yes they all walked out that's amazing
I took issue with that. I wish I didn't know that they showed it. They showed them setting up the stage and they showed all the grass people like milling about and getting up into their places. And I, with my friends who I was watching with yelled at the TV and I was like, don't show us how the sausage gets made. I just need this stage to reveal. And then you'd like, don't know what's going on. That's kind of like one of my pet peeves in life. but I thought they did a fantastic job. The stage design, the energy, the dancers, and not just Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin were there, but at one point they have a house party at sort of look like it's happening, like a big boisterous house party and attending the house party, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Pedro Pascal, Carol G. And then someone saw Alex Earl there as well.
