Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Sparks 125 FCC Complaints

In records acquired by The Hill through a Freedom of Information Act request, multiple viewers from various parts of the country expressed disapproval over the halftime show, claiming it was inappropriate for children. A viewer from Illinois criticized the language and gestures, stating, “The halftime show was dreadful. My young kids should not have been exposed to such content.” Meanwhile, a viewer from North Carolina described it as the worst halftime show they had ever seen, adding, “I’m grateful I didn’t understand much of what Kendrick Lamar was saying because I’ve read some of his song lyrics, and I am shocked. The performance was divisive, degrading, and filled with profanity. It is by no means suitable entertainment for all ages.
