Like most Hip Hop fans, Britney Spears only wanted the West Coast rap celebration to go longer than the brief halftime stint during Super Bowl LVI. Sunday’s (February 13) entertaining showcase brought the inner-child out of the pop star as Eminem’s performance made her “feel 17 again.”
“Wow !!! Eminem last night at the Super Bowl … he should have had way more time,” she proclaimed. “He was everything to me when I was younger and it was so weird in the first two seconds I saw him on stage last night I felt like I was 17 again !!! It’s honestly kinda scary how certain artists and music can do that … we are so lucky to live in a world where music can give us hope … identity … acceptance …and love.”
Eminem hit the stage taking a knee in support of embattled former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and then performed his 2002 hit single “Lose Yourself” after Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg kicked off the show with their West Coast flair.
In addition to Em, Snoop and Dre, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige brought their showstopping theatrics to the acclaimed halftime performance gracing L.A.’s SoFi Stadium. Fittingly, Spears actually took the stage at Super Bowl XXXV 21 years ago, where Mary J. Blige also performed alongside Nelly, Aerosmith and *NSYNC.
Britney Spears and Slim Shady haven’t collaborated in an official capacity, but he has name-dropped the “Toxic” singer on tracks such as 2004’s “Ass Like That,” 2000’s “The Real Slim Shady” and dissed her on The Marshall Mathers LP‘s “Marshall Mathers.”
Em claimed he was “on a mission to destroy teen pop acts” on his way to topping the charts at the turn of the millennium. He even dressed up as Spears in her school-girl outfit from the video to her No. 1 “…Baby One More Time” smash hit for his “The Real Slim Shady” visual.
i didn’t watch all of it the fist ruined it for me. it is as if there is something wrong with being white.
The fist?
Yeah Evan received fist in his ass from his boyfriend.
deep deep down down, deep down in her ass
lol guess she didn’t hear the MMLP when he said “these f king brats can’t sing and Britney’s garbage, what is this b tch r e t a r d e d? Give me back my 16 dollars”
These people are crazy
Maybe she did hear it and outgrew it
Have you not seen and of the videos Britney Spears has been posting?.. B***h is crazy!!
I wonder if she’s ever heard Same Song and Dance.
Lol I forgot which song he mentioned her
She could’ve got that D (and it ain’t Detroit)
Ppl r mentioning em dissing Britney but it’s common knowledge that celebrities don’t really care. Regardless of anyone Em dissed or not, everyone seems to hold him in high regards due to his influence.
Those lines were really funny indeed! The Marshall Mathers LP were filled with hilarious lines like that.
Is this copy & paste news from complex? Eminem took the knee after he performed, he didn’t start off taking a knee. They said the same thing.
I hope Em inspires to her “Free Britney” on insta like she did the other time.
