“There’s no diversity in the half time show. DEI only goes one direction and this horrible halftime show perfectly represents why DEI needs to die,” a user wrote.

    Look, I wasn’t a big fan of the half time show, either, but that’s because it was only one person and wasn’t a big spectacle. I think Kendrick absolutely crushed his performance, and the dancers and choreography were amazing; but it was like a really large music video and not a halftime show spectacle. If any other person had made a musical cameo besides the woman I didn’t know who sang two short lines, then it would have been better. The reason I say that is, in my unartistic opinion, Kendrick is a bit one-note; so adding another artist would have punched harder.

    I knew people would complain about the lack of diversity on stage, but I also think it was completely intentional to make a point. I loved that aspect of it.
