Prince Still Reigns in Super Bowl Halftime Rankings as New Era Approaches

A culture writer ranks every Super Bowl halftime show since 1991 using a four-category rubric (Music & Dance, Staging, Performance Relative to Circumstance, and Performance Relative to Stature), crowning Prince’s 2007 performance as the best and placing U2 (2002) and Michael Jackson (1993) among the top, with Coldplay/Beyoncé/Bruno Mars (2016) and Dr. Dre’s 2022 lineup close behind; Kendrick Lamar’s 2025 show is highlighted and Bad Bunny is on deck for Santa Clara, signaling an evolving, Easter-egg-filled era for the spectacle.
