The Super Bowl halftime shows are as famous and exciting as the game itself, and they’ve only gotten bigger and more grandiose over the years. Since 1967, the Super Bowl halftime shows have been an annual thing to look forward to.

But in this list we’re looking at fairly recent history, and how popular culture has influenced it.
