Wicken may not have dreamed that his Super Bowl halftime show would be like this. Whether it is the fans on the scene or the fans watching TV at home, they are dizzy. Although the 30-year-old singer sang heart-wrenchingly, the male dancers wore red jackets like him, bandages wrapped around their faces, and continued to beat the music of Wicken's scars, but the audience listened like needles.
"Wicken made me dizzy and I had to close my eyes and take a break." A fan tweeted. "Can we get Jennifer Lopez and Shakira back?" The Wicken stage backdrop is too dizzying. Another fan was clearly supportive of his claims.
The Golden Room is apparently a reference to Wicken's earlier performance at the Florida Raymond James Gymnasium, which he liked for this golden wall effect. He joined the red dancers, and the camera avoided touching their faces. Fans joked that it was like following the female host to the Chi Lok Fong restaurant.
Comedian Michelle Collins also joined the spit team. "If the halftime show is going to feed me soda, I think it's disgusting."
Others were complaining about the poor sound, "Turn up Mike a little bit, I can barely hear him." ”
A few months ago, Wicken fans began to look forward to this halftime show, and a few weeks ago they began counting down, expecting what surprises the Canadian singer would bring to everyone and what kind of mysterious guests would appear. However, on February 4, Wicken revealed that he said there was no room for storytelling and no special guests.
Before the performance, It is inevitable that Wicken will feel anxious, because in the history of the Super Bowl, there have been very legendary performances. In 1996, Miss Diana Ross ended her performance by helicopter. Eleven years later, Prince began to rain purple at the Super Bowl.
Due to the epidemic, Wicken has limited operating space. But at least one celebrity praised his performance. Legendary R&B singer Dionne Warwick praised Wicken. "Very good value for money" She wrote, "Love this stage and the Pyro, you look all sound great, give you big hugs, warm applause. A fan left a message asking if she was joking, and she replied: "Jesse, I'm serious, if I'm joking, I'll let you know." ”
Wicken single-handedly performed some of his albums on the Super Bowl halftime show, including Starboy, Can't Feel My Face, The Hills, the Hills, and more, a performance that became a musical review of his different career stages. In the final song, he follows the aesthetic features of his latest album After Hours, in which some male dancers wear bandages on their faces.
Puzzled that he did not invite guest fans. "I love Wicken, I love it very much, but why would he want to do a halftime show alone? Beyoncé hired Chris Martin, the chilli peppers invited Bruno Mars, Katy Perry invited Lenny Kravitz and Missy Elliott. ”
A day ago, when the media asked Wicken if he would continue his scar performance at the Super Bowl, he sold a stunt, saying he didn't know, and asked him about the role he played. Now that the truth is clear, in fact, Wicken will use the elements that the song used to sing, and since this is a performance that runs through his professional stage, it is naturally indispensable to his latest work.
The Super Bowl halftime show is no less popular in the United States than the Spring Festival Gala in China, and it is a great honor for the singer to perform at the Super Bowl. Although Wicken's performance has shortcomings of one kind or another, it is also an important milestone in his musical path.
