The Weeknd delivered an unusual solo performance during halftime of Super Bowl LV on Sunday night, playing through his catalog of hits in a unique one-man show that earned mixed reviews from fans on social media.
Midway through the performance, The Weeknd entered a hall of mirrors and held the camera close to his face as he spun around repeatedly. The bafflign sequence went way longer than it should have, and left some viewers feeling… a bit nauseated.
