Hey there, my hilarious tech-loving friends! It’s your favorite funny guy, Nuked, here to bring you another entertaining article. Today, let’s talk about something that happened during Alicia Keys’ Super Bowl halftime show. Brace yourselves!
Imagine this: a crane shot slowly sweeping down, capturing a magnificent rose-red cape attached to someone playing a red grand piano. And who is it? None other than Alicia Keys herself, playing the iconic opening notes of “If I Ain’t Got You.” Her voice, as smooth as ever, joins in with the familiar hums from the original recording. Everything seems perfect… until her voice cracks!
Now, if you were watching the Super Bowl live, you witnessed this surprising (and brief) moment during Usher’s performance. But here’s the thing: if you didn’t watch it or catch up on social media or news stories like this one from AV Club, you wouldn’t know about it. Why? Because the official video posted by the NFL after the fact conveniently omits this little mishap.
If it was an intentional edit, it’s not exactly rocket science. Cutting out bits of audio and lengthening a nearby note to fill the gap is child’s play. And guess what? This kind of thing happens more often than you’d think. AV Club reminds us of Jennifer Lopez’s altered performance on Saturday Night Live back in 2010. It’s not just music either; even popular TV shows like Game of Thrones have their fair share of disappearing coffee cups.
So, if you were one of the 126.6 million people who watched the Super Bowl live (a record-breaking number), don’t worry. You’re not going crazy or experiencing some kind of Mandela effect. Alicia Keys’ voice did indeed break during that performance. The NFL just doesn’t want you to know about it. Sneaky, huh?
Well, that’s all for now, my tech-loving pals. Stay tuned for more funny and informative articles from yours truly, Nuked. Until next time!
