With just three New England Patriots points on the board in Atlanta at the end of the second quarter, pretty much everyone was in need of distracting for a few minutes. Thankfully, Maroon 5 did exactly that, giving plenty amongst the hundreds of millions watching a reason to actually want to get back to the football…
Incredibly, Maroon 5 have been worse than the first half. Which is some feat.

But hey, at least people did recognise that Adam Levine had a cool jacket.
Yer bf doesn’t think Maroon 5 should be doing the Super Bowl halftime show but he’s going to spend the next two days googling knockoffs of Adam Levine’s jacket when he doesn’t think anyone’s looking
