Shakira and J.LO Unite for a Throwback Masterpiece

What makes the Superbowl such a huge event is the ability to bring something for everyone, and Superbowl LIV was no different. For the die-hard sports fans, it provides a perfect stage for the blow-off game of the season. As for everyone else, we get a chance to get sucked into the spectacle of the whole night. Including, of course, the Half-Time show. Taking the stage this year was none other than Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, a.k.a J.LO a far cry from Al Hirt, and marching bands from the University of Arizona and Grambling State University who perform for Super Bowl I in 1967.


Each performer brought their A+ game to the show, both highlighting their greatest hits from their long amazing careers.

Shakira started her performance by quickly reminding the audience that she found the secret to eternal youth because she has somehow not aged a day. Her music remains just as timeless, providing the perfect nostalgia hit, along with empowering messages. Shakira’s playlist included:

  1. She Wolf

  2. Empire

  3. Whenever, Wherever

  4. I Like It Like That, ft. Bad Bunny

  5. Chantaje

  6. Hips Don’t Lie

  7. Waka Waka

Jennifer Lopez kept the momentum going with her performance, which calls for unity. All of J.LO’s songs fill you with pride for your heritage. The performance comes together with the striking visual of J.LO, along with her daughter, performing a rendition of “Born in the USA,” by Bruce Springsteen, while holding the Puerto Rican flag.


J.LO also brought her A-game with her own throwback playlist:

  1. Jenny from the Block

  2. Get Right

  3. Waiting for Tonight

  4. Love Don’t Cost a Thing

  5. Mi Gente, ft J Balvin

  6. On the Floor

  7. Born in the USA, ft. daughter Emme Maribel Muniz

  8. Let’s Get Loud

The hook throughout the week leading to the big event was two of the biggest Latina artist are coming together to light up the stage. With such a statement, the pressure was truly on for both Shakira and J.LO. While it is easy to say that they played it safe playing their greatest hits. It says a lot about their talent and the longevity of their music that despite not being the first time you heard these songs, you still feel the same excitement whenever performed.
