Footage shows J.Lo and Shakira rehearsing for Super Bowl halftime show


A rehearsal of the Super Bowl LIV halftime show has been caught on camera in footage exclusively obtained by DailyMailTV.

Jennifer Lopez and Shakira, the leading ladies in Sunday’s show, can be heard practicing a medley of their biggest hits while fireworks light up the sky in the video, which was shot from outside Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium on Wednesday night.

The footage gives a sneak preview of the show lineup, which has until now been a closely guarded secret, and is set to be watched by 100 million viewers this weekend.

Songs in the rehearsal captured on video include snatches of Shakira’s official song of the South Africa 2010 Fifa World Cup, Waka Waka (This Time for Africa), She Wolf, Whenever, Wherever and Hips Don’t Lie.

Lopez ran through her hits Jenny From the Block, Waiting for Tonight, Let’s Get loud, and her US top ten 2011 track featuring Pit Bull, On The Floor.

Red, blue, green and gold fireworks exploded above the 65,000-capacity stadium, with the seating lit up in yellow, green, pink, blue and red as thumping bass and drum beats echoed out speakers, elements designed to whip the fired-up football crowd into a frenzy for the high-energy halftime show.

The Super Bowl LIV will see the San Francisco 49ers face off against the Kansas City Chiefs, who would be making history with their first win in 50 years if they triumph, while the 49ers are trying for their sixth Lombardi Trophy. 

Among the tunes caught on the recording were strains of I Like It Like That by Tony Pabón, Manny Rodriguez and Benny Bonnilla, which was sampled in Cardi B, Bad Bunny & J Balvin’s 2018 song I Like It, as well as Reggaeton hit X by Nicky Jam and J. Balvin – adding to the Latino vibe of the halftime concert.

In an interview earlier this week, Lopez and Shakira said it meant a lot to them to have a double Latina lineup in the majority Spanish-speaking Miami.

‘Two Latinas doing this in this country at this time is very empowering for us,’ Lopez said.
