During Super Bowl LII’s highly anticipated halftime show, Justin Timberlake tried to avoid any and all controversy following his last performance in 2004 with Janet Jackson. However, while he succeeded in avoiding another Nipplegate, he did not succeed with his Prince homage.
It was rumored prior to his halftime performance that Timberlake would share the stage with a Prince hologram at some point during the show, however, those rumors were quickly squashed. Instead, viewers were treated to a projection of Prince as Timberlake honored the late singer with a duet.
Actor and comedian Sinbad also had choice words for Timberlake following the performance. In a colorful tweet, he wrote, “Okay punkass justin (sic) Timberlake. You was cool till you pulled that Prince bullshit. You dissed Prince on a track of yours and you dissed him onstage when you lowered the mic stand onstage when prince won an award. Later for ya ass.”
