While NFL fans were delighted by the unexpected performance, some were wondering whether or not the celebrated New York rapper lip-synced his Super Bowl performance. Actor David Spade wondered that blunt question aloud on Twitter, but many others were already contemplating whether or not 50 Cent his fellow artists sang their performance.
Real question. Is this lip syncâd?

Solid #HalfTimeShow, but Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and 50 Cent were clearly lip synching. #SuperBowl

A super bowl #HalfTimeShow with non-playing musicians and 50 Cent lip syncing is just pathetic. This can end any time now.

Alright letâs see. I think snoop dogg and Dre was singing legit. 50 cent was lip syncing 120%. Blige Iâm leaning towards real. Eminem Iâm leaning towards lip sync.

Did 50 Cent lip sync his SUper Bowl Halftime Show performance?
Whether or not 50 Cent truly lip synced hasnât been determined by exhaustive play-by-play analysis, but many people seem to think his and the other Super Bowl performances werenât performed live.
However, the responses were mixed among viewers. One person thought the 46-year-old rapper looked âout of breathâ within moments of his performance.
I think snoop is lip syncing.

Mary j blidges voice sounds deep and raspy and not good. 50 cent was out of breath one line in. Eminem was ehh
Others think 50 Cent sounded real as he sang his early 2000s hit.
50 cent doesn't sound like he's lip synching

Good for him
What seems to be the prevailing opinion among viewers commenting on the authenticity of the vocals is that many were not satisfied with the Super Bowl Halftime performance. Despite the differing opinions and the different artists, that is one constant in the Super Bowl: people are guaranteed to complain about the halftime show and say it wasnât good enough.
