2011 Super Bowl Half-Time Show Recap: Black Eyed Peas, Usher and Slash Perform!
Plus: Video of Christina Aguilera's National Anthem Mistake!
There seemed to be some major acoustic issues as pop group Black Eyed Peas took the Super Bowl half-time show stage, and only Will.I.Am's mic seemed online at full capacity. Fergie's mic cut in and out a bit and the others were barely audible when they contributed to backing vocals, but this seemed to resolve itself after a while.
Black Eyed Peas, Slash and Usher Rock Super Bowl Half-Time Show 2011
The Black Eyed Peas Super Bowl half-time performance began with "I Got a Feeling", which dissolved into parts of "Boom Boom Pow". Dozens of dancers in LED light-infused outfits that changed colors surrounded the stage throughout the performance, and then suddenly, Slash appeared on stage. (Yes, that Slash.)

Next, Fergie half-sang, half-butchered the GNR classic, "Sweet Child Of Mine", as Slash jammed on his guitar. A moment later, R&B superstar Usher dropped in to save the day. Usher immediately launched into his hit, "OMG (Let Me Love You)", and performed a well-styled dance routine which actually turned out to be pretty much the highlight of the entire 2011 Super Bowl Half-Time Show.

Finally, Will.I.Am, Fergie and the rest of the Black Eyed Peas saved face with a really nice rendition of, "Where Is The Love", before performing parts of "Time Of My Life (Dirty Bit)" before bringing it back to the end of "I Got A Feeling".
