The Los Angeles Rams won the Super Bowl for the second time in history. The American football team beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 at home in California. The last time the Rams won the Super Bowl was 22 years ago. At that time, the team was still playing in St. Louis.
In front of more than 70,000 spectators, the California team made their lightning favorite in the 56th edition of the Super Bowl. Although the 13-20 deficit should have been adjusted for that, after the Rams just advanced 13-10 halfway through. Cuper Cobb was named Man of the Match.
This was the third time the Bengals had lost an NFL Final, after 1982 and 1989. In 2019, the Los Angeles Rams held the lead in the final fight. They then lost to the New England Patriots to star Tom Brady. This quarterback went on to win his Super Bowl seven with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2021. Brady recently ended his career at the age of 44.
In the United States, nearly 100 million Americans watch the Super Bowl each year. Thus, the most expensive commercial during the mid-game break has cost more than 6 million euros this year.
During this year’s Break program, six famous rappers performed: Dr. Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar, plus a surprising acting 50 Cent. They mainly played their old songs. Eminem knelt after his performance: the now known gesture against racism in American football made by former player and activist Colin Kaepernick.
This was the first time hip-hop artists had topped a Super Bowl halftime show. It is exciting every year to have great artist(s) on stage during a prestigious show. Previously, Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Prince, The Rolling Stones, U2, Beyoncé, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez and Lady Gaga performed during the break.
In a press conference before the Super Bowl, the rapper noted that it was time for hip-hop music during the Super Bowl. So said Dr. Dre: This should have happened much earlier. Hip hop is the biggest music genre in the world at the moment. So it’s crazy that it took us so long to be recognized.”
