Many sat in anticipation as both Beyoncé and Bruno Mars returned to the Super Bowl Halftime Show. Although Coldplay was the headliner, Bey and Bruno pulled a 2015 Missy Elliott on Katy Perry.
Twitter was on the play-by-play.

Dear future entertainers: If you want people only talking about your halftime show, never give up your floor to better artists. #SB50

I like Coldplay and the first part of the show I liked. But they coming back in once the show was Bey and Bruno was like gentrification.😂😂😂

Bruno Mars is INCREDIBLY talented. He can sing, dance, write, perform.. There’s nothing that he can’t do, musically.
