The Super Bowl LIX halftime show starring Kendrick Lamar broke the all-time viewership record.

Lamar made history as the first solo rapper to headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show and, brought in 133.5 million viewers live during the event, and has since amassed over 38 million views on YouTube and other social media.

His performance, despite how many people felt, got more eyes than last year’s headliner, Usher, who had 129.3 million viewers, and Rihanna’s 121 million in 2023.

Kendrick Lamar did so well that he also surpassed Michael Jackson’s famous 1993 Halftime show, which had a record of 133.4 million viewers.

That is just incredible news. Unfortunately, not everybody is buying it.

“Kendrick Lamar surpassed Michael Jackson… OK. If you believe this, please unfollow me,” Jason Whitlock boldly stated.

“I was at the game when Michael performed. It was spectacular! No one left their seats during the halftime. This year, we had a watch party. Everyone went to the dining room for eats. Boring & everyone kept saying they couldn’t understand what he was saying,” another fan stated.

“People heard it was going to be patriotic and family-friendly. They all tuned in, but it wasn’t because of a mediocre rapper no one could understand. I’ll still take MJ or Bruno Mars Up-Town Funk any day,” a third fan added.

“If this is true, it would only be from the fact there are more ways to watch these days. I never even heard of Kendrick Lamar before the Super Bowl, and I don’t live in a cave or under a rock,” one x user commented.

One final fan stated: “It’s kind of a misleading stat. I left it on, but I wasn’t in the room. The 90s were also stacked with halftime alternatives competing with NFL, which isn’t really a thing anymore. Although it should be.”

VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”

Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts

During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.

The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.

This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.

One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.

He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.

He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
