Justin Timberlake took to the stage for the Pepsi Super Bowl LII Halftime Show. There are number of mixed reviews floating around – from the quality of the sound to Timberlake’s choice in wardrobe. Needless to say critics were high since it was the pop stars first time back to the NFL stage following his controversial “Rock Your Body,” performance with Janet Jackson at the 2004 Super Bowl. A big song for Timberlake being the first major solo hit of his career, but this time the pop star was sure to cut off the song just before the lyric that caused all the commotion back then. This time around the singer did a tribute to the legendary Prince that has some fans throwing a lot of shade. On the other had celebrity fans such as Ellen DeGeneres are showing nothing but praise. The most talked about had to have been the #selfiekid.

Prince once called the practice of using holograms of dead artists "absolutely demonic".#JustinTimberlake abused his legacy despite Prince's family's objections.#SuperBowl
