Sharing the halftime show with another artist was the worst idea in the world, according to a documentary by Jen Lopez.
She said that if it was going to be a double-headliner, they should have given them more time.
The representatives for the league didn't reply immediately.
At the premiere of her new documentary "Halftime" at the Tribeca Festival on Wednesday night, Lopez didn't hold back about her feelings about sharing the Super Bowl halftime stage with another Latinx singer.
In a scene planning her half of the performance with her music director Kim Burse, Lopez said it was the worst idea in the world to have two people share the main stage.
Lopez said in the film that she only had six minutes to sing a good portion of any song, though she had some hits she had to include in the show. We have to sing. It won't be a dance show. We need to say something.
Two people doing the Super Bowl is not a good idea. The singer said that it was the worst idea in the world.
In a scene in the movie, Lopez's manager supported his client's feelings.
The Super Bowl usually has one headliners. Should they choose to have other guests, that's their choice, according to Medina. You need two Latinas to do the job that one artist has done before.
Madonna and Lady Gaga were each given over 13 minutes to perform at the Super Bowl in 2012 and 2017.
Lopez and Shakira are shown in early scenes of "Halftime" getting ready to perform. According to Lopez, the parties at the NFL told her they would have about 12 minutes to perform, but that the length could be increased by a minute or two.
The Super Bowl Halftime Show ran for 14 minutes and gave Lopez and Shakira seven minutes each to perform their biggest hits.
Lopez said that they should have been given 20 minutes.
The representatives for the league didn't reply immediately.
There was controversy after the performance. According to the network, the FCC received over a thousand complaints after the show was performed.
Some viewers took issue with the fact that Lopez danced on a pole during her portion of the show, as well as the fact that she was dressed so skimpy.
Throughout her career as an actor, dancer, and Latinx pop star, Lopez has addressed her struggles.
She said in an interview that she was an "underdog" in an interview with Rolling Stone. I think I'm scrapping from the bottom. It's always.
The mother of two said that she felt like she was not in the room.
At the MTV Movie & TV Awards on Sunday, the "Hustlers" star received a Generation Award. She acknowledged the people who have made her road more difficult.
Lopez said "since you cannot create truth unless you've actually lived it, I have a different kind of list of thank-yous tonight." I would like to say thank you to all the people who have helped me. I would like to thank the people who gave me joy, the people who broke my heart, and the people who lied to me. I want to say thank you to both true love and the way that I lied to myself.
The "Selena" actor said he wanted to thank the people who taught him to love and be strong.
On June 14th, "Halftime" will be available on the streaming service.
