Fan crashes Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl LIX halftime show with Palestinian flag, tackled by security
A man snuck onto the field during the Kendrick Lamar halftime show waving a Palestinian flag before he was eventually intercepted by security and dragged off.
The man made it all the way onto the main stage where Lamar was performing when security finally noticed him.
At that point he fled the stage and ran onto the field, where he was chased by a different set of security officers. He made a full circle on the field before encountering more resistance, though. You can check it out below.
Prop bets abound for Kendrick Lamar halftime show
There were a number of prop bets available prior to the Kendrick Lamar halftime show for fans wanting to bet on how the performance would unfold. On Thursday, Odds Shark shared the betting lines for numerous prop bets surrounding Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show.
Super Bowl LIX was set to be Kendrick Lamar’s first Super Bowl halftime show as the headline performer. However, he also performed at Super Bowl LVI, along with fellow rap legends Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem and Mary J. Blige.
In his limited time in the spotlight, he performed his hit songs m.A.A.d city and Alright. Since then, the award-winning rapper has released two albums: Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers (2022) and GNX (2024). Alas, oddsmakers weren’t convinced that Lamar wouldn’t open up his performance on Sunday with one of his classic hits.

And what’s a Superbowl halftime show without a surprise feature? Last year, Usher had six guest appearances in his show, ranging from Alicia Keys to Ludacris. It’s not a stretch to assume that at least one unexpected artist will take the stage with Kendrick Lamar on Sunday.
In fairness, Lamar has plenty of hit songs that include featured artists. Most recently, his song “Luther” on GNX featured pop star SZA. However, Lamar has also had features with the likes of Jay-Z and Dr. Dre dating back to 2011.
There was no telling who would take the stage with Lamar during the Super Bowl halftime show but oddsmakers had several guesses.
| Option | Odds |
|---|---|
| Baby Keem To Appear On Stage | +110 |
| Future To Appear On Stage | +184 |
| Metro Boomin To Appear On Stage | +184 |
| Jay Rock To Appear On Stage | +205 |
| Doechii To Appear On Stage | +210 |
| Travis Scott To Appear On Stage | +250 |
| The Weeknd To Appear On Stage | +310 |
| Janet Jackson To Appear On Stage | +490 |
| Rihanna To Appear On Stage | +600 |
| A$AP Rocky To Appear On Stage | +750 |
