Bring Madonna's Super Bowl Givenchy From the Stage to the Streets

While football fanatics were focused on the fouls and scores at yesterday's Super Bowl, our eyes were peeled on Madonna's halftime-show outfit.

While football fanatics were focused on the fouls and scores at yesterday's Super Bowl, our eyes were peeled on Madonna's halftime-show outfit. Her black-and-gold Givenchy dress was an obvious showstopper, and the gold pompoms fed into her over-the-top performance. While this look was just right on stage, it would look too contrived on the sidewalks. But with just a few tweaks and additions, we can easily bring Madonna's stage ensemble to the streets. Start with a basic black tee, then jazz it up with a gold spiked necklace. Go simple with one strand of spikes, or go all out with a handful. Then for your bottoms, play around with a bouncy skirt like Madonna's, black skinny jeans for something more streamlined, a red leather skirt for a wowing effect, or boyfriend jeans to achieve an edgy casual vibe. Shop endless options below.

Andy Lewis Slacklines to Fame During Madonna's Halftime Show

During Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show, a performer jumping up and down on what appeared to be a tightrope had the crowd asking, "Who is that guy who looks like Will Ferrell, and what is he doing?"

During Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show, a performer jumping up and down on what appeared to be a tightrope had the crowd asking, "Who is that guy who looks like Will Ferrell, and what is he doing?" For anyone involved in rock climbing, you already know that it's athlete "Sketchy" Andy Lewis, the slackline king.

Besides being a lot of fun, slacklining is an incredible workout that challenges your core, agility, and balance. It may look similar to tightrope walking, but the differences are important. Unlike a tightrope, which uses a tautly-held rigid line, slacklining relies on the use of flat nylon webbing anchored with enough give to stretch and bounce. This give is what allowed Andy, who holds several world records in slacklining, to perform those acrobatic stunts during the halftime show. While it's grown into having a community all its own, modern-day slacklining is attributed to the Yosemite rock climbing community. In the '80s, rock climbers started killing time while camping by setting up slacklines using gear they already had — a tradition which still persists today. Some climbers even go slacklining thousands of feet up above the Yosemite valley floor. Slacklining has since evolved into a competitive sport and even bred offshoots like yoga slacklining.

If you missed Andy's performance, check it out after the break!

Our favorite part about last night's Super Bowl? The Madonna halftime show. The 53-year-old proved she's still got it, singing, dancing, and above all, looking amazing in a sexy studded getup. Going with an Egyptian-themed show, Madonna wore a black-and-gold studded Givenchy dress, thigh-high boots, fishnet tights, and her trademark fingerless gloves. No doubt a daring look, but we want to know, did you love it? Check out more photos from her performance last night, then tell us what you think in the comments section below.

Madonna's Super Bowl Halftime Show: Touchdown or Letdown?

The Giants may have won the big game, but the verdict on Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show is still out.

The Giants may have won the big game, but the verdict on Madonna's Super Bowl halftime show is still out. The Material Girl took to the field in a Viking-like headdress and costume to revisit some of her biggest hits, like "Vogue" and "Music," while interacting with some impressive Cirque du Soleil performers, LMFAO, and Cee Lo Green. The set was a mix of old and new, since she topped it off with new single "Give Me All Your Luvin'" alongside Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. I thought it was a fun enough show for fans of Madonna, but I was hoping for something a little more explosive — after all, this woman has never been afraid to take risks. It just felt a little safe to me, and I would have liked to have heard some more classic Madonna hits. But I'd love to hear your thoughts; were you feeling the halftime show or not?

Madonna blew the roof off of the 2012 Super Bowl halftime show in Indianapolis on Sunday.

Madonna blew the roof off of the 2012 Super Bowl halftime show in Indianapolis on Sunday. The Giants defeated the Patriots to take home the championship, but Madonna was another winner of the evening. She performed some of her biggest hits like "Vogue" and "Like a Prayer," as well as her new single "Give Me All Your Luvin." Nicki Minaj and MIA joined her for that cheerleader-inspired jam, though MIA managed to cause a bit of controversy when she seemed to give the middle finger to the camera. Madonna also sang alongside the guys of LMFAO and Cee Lo Green. Madonna's impressive spectacle ended with a light show and inspirational message of "World Peace" for the audience in the stadium and watching around the country. What did you think of Madonna's halftime show?

In case you hadn't heard, Madonna will be taking the stage on Sunday to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show.

In case you hadn't heard, Madonna will be taking the stage on Sunday to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. We're keeping our fingers crossed for one or two vintage songs (a medley perhaps?), but there's one thing you can count on: she'll be showing off her latest single, "Give Me All Your Luvin'." The new video for the song is essentially an ad for the biggest day in football: we've got linebackers surrounding the Queen of Pop, while M.I.A. and Nicki Minaj act as cheerleaders. Whether or not you're into the tune, there's no denying that Madonna's still got the bod and the moves of a pop star. Watch it below and tell us what you think.
