The documentary “Halftime” about Jennifer Lopez can be seen from Tuesday. In this, the singer is unhappy that the stage of the Super Bowl halftime show 2020 had to share with Shakira. A dispute has broken out online between the fan camps about who is the bigger star.
In her Netflix documentary “Halftime”, Jennifer Lopez revealed that she wasn’t exactly happy about the fact that she was on stage with colleague Shakira at the 2020 Super Bowl halftime show. A dispute has now broken out between the fan camps of the two singers on Twitter – Lopez in particular is not doing well.
The basis of the discussion is the question: who is the bigger star, Jennifer Lopez or Shakira? One of the first tweets on the subject reads, “Shakira has never been taller than J.Lo in her career. And I love Shakira.” Shakira’s fans are shooting back. One of her followers credits the singer’s accomplishments, including her numerous Latin Grammys, while Lopez is “only known for” having been in relationships with Alex Rodriguez, Marc Anthony and Ben Affleck. Another tweet said: “The fact that J.Lo is still complaining about having to perform with Shakira (the taller, humbler star) at the halftime show shows she’s just plain jealous.”
A Twitter user defended J.Lo: “This is the best example of how misinformation spreads. She’s never said anything negative about Shakira. She’s not bitter. She’s mad at the Super Bowl sponsors because They let TWO Latinas do the job that one mediocre guy does on the halftime show and get all the spotlight.”
The documentary, which is available on Netflix from Tuesday under the German title “Jennifer Lopez: Halftime”, is about the past 50 years of the artist’s life and ends with her Super Bowl halftime show with Shakira 2020. The documentary also shows private things, such as Lopez ‘ relationship with her 14-year-old twins Max and Emme.
J.Lo’s statements about the Super Bowl halftime show caused a scandal in advance. Several US media quote the singer: “It’s the worst idea in the world to let two people do the Super Bowl.” Lopez’s manager, Benny Medina, reportedly said, “It was an insult to think that it took two Latinas to do the job that only one artist could do in the past.” The two singers also allegedly argued before their performance.
