In late September 2019, the world was SHOOK when Pepsi announced via Twitter that Jennifer Lopez and Shakira would be the Super Bowl LIV halftime show performers. Since the announcement, some have wondered if the two have enough hits on their discography and talent to take on the half time show. With Shakira being a three time Grammy winner,and Lopez winning 315 awards throughout her career, we definitely think they are ready. So let us brush you up on their bops and talents!
Remember when J.Lo dropped Jenny From The Block and left us no choice but to stan?!
Speaking of Shakira, remember when she took over the world in 2006 with the help of Wyclef Jean with “Hips Don’t Lie”? Yeah, you do. The song was such an international hit, they were asked to perform it at the 2006 Fifa World Cup, 2006 MTV Movie Awards, and the 49th Grammy Awards in 2007. Her hips don’t lie, and neither does her talent!
In 2015, J.Lo hosted the American Music Awards and opened with a spectacular dance number featuring all the hits of that year. The performance now has over 7,000,000 views on YouTube. Can you say, LEGENDARY?
Remember “Chantaje” the viral hit from 2017 by Shakira and Maluma? It became Shakira’s eleventh numer-one song on charts, and currently has 2.4 billion views on Youtube. WE STAN!
Last but not least, J.Lo received the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award last year in 2018. She sits along icons such as U2, Beyonce, Missy Elliott, and Tommy Petty who have received this award, and performed at the Super Bowl. Interesting, huh?
In conclusion, Shakira and Jennifer Lopez are definitely a perfect fit for the Super Bowl halftime show. They have been training and preparing for this their entire careers. Now it’s time for them to have us shook, yet again.
