Fans Are Reacting To Jack Harlow's Shocking NFL Thanksgiving Halftime Performance

    "Pretty sure my neighbors had a larger budget for their front yard nativity scene than the game did for Jack Harlow."

    The people are coming for Jack Harlow's halftime performance, and it's hilarious.

    Jack's music is catchy, so I was excited to hear he performed at the halftime show for the NFL's Thanksgiving Day game between the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers.

    But while the 25-year-old rapper's latest single, "Lovin' On Me, " was hot enough to become a viral hit, the live version didn't do it for me — or anyone.

    For starters, I can't handle this awkward paper mache-like igloo in the middle of the field.

    And then, there's this mystery hype person living their best life before they magically disappear after one song.

    Once the performance broke out, everyone danced on this tarp that was supposed to be snow but instead looked like they were about to paint a bedroom.

    And I could tell by this picture there was no way that the entire stadium could actually hear anything that was happening on the field.

    The same day, Dolly Parton performed during the halftime show of the Washington Commanders and Dallas Cowboys, which was featured on the NFL's YouTube page.

    The 77-year-old superstar's performance looked a lot different than Jack's.

    But, the NFL didn't post Jack's performance.

    Everyone had hilarious responses to Jack's performance. Here are some of the best reactions.

    One user on YouTube said, "Jack Harlow came out of a FEMA tent, surrounded by some hazmat tarps, and tried to call it a snow landscape. LOL."

    "They should have invested more than $40 into the set," one user wrote on TikTok.

    "Pretty sure my neighbors had a larger budget for their front yard nativity scene than the game did for Jack Harlow," another user wrote.

    "They just laid out a tarp and called it 'A Halftime Show,'" another TikTok user joked.

    If Jack Harlow was smart, he'd come on here and simply tweet, "Miss Dolly ate me TF up during halftime didn't she?" pic.twitter.com/dwXT2PxZSS
