Super Bowl 2016: All The Best Moments

by Erin Bunch

Super Bowl 50 was one for the books: Beyoncé crushed halftime, Helen Mirren made a beer commercial, and the Broncos won (in case you somehow missed that). Amidst it all, A-listers of all stripes took to social media to share their snaps from the festivities. Here are some of the game’s biggest moments—from the field, the stage, and behind the scenes.

@beyonce

Beyoncé Slayed At Halftime

She paid homage to Michael Jackson and the Black Panthers, she danced so hard she nearly toppled over, and she announced a new world tour. We almost feel sorry for Coldplay, who were basically robbed of their place in Super Bowl history by Beyoncé's genius.
