Super Bowl LIX Halftime performance reaction: Jada Gyamfi has only 1 word for Serena Williams' dance with Kendrick Lamar

Count Jada Gyamfi among the many fans who were impressed with Serena Williams' performance during Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl LIX halftime show on Sunday night. The Iowa Hawkeyes star shared a video of the tennis legend's dance number on her Instagram story, giving her reaction to Williams's surprise appearance at Caesars Superdome.

The clip showed Williams doing a crip walk while K.Dot performed his Grammy award-winning Drake diss track "Not Like Us." Gyamfi loved the 23-time Grand Slam singles champion's cameo, posting a one-word caption with the video.

"Elite," Gyamfi wrote.

Serena Williams wasn't the only star that Lamar brought on stage to perform in the halftime show of Super Bowl LIX. SZA also made an appearance with Lamar, with the duo performing their hits "All the Lights" and "Luther." Hollywood actor Samuel L. Jackson also appeared throughout the rapper's performance, playing the role of Uncle Sam in the show.

Lamar's performance proved to be the most exciting part of Super Bowl Sunday, as the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles didn't live up to the hype. The Eagles cruised to victory in the title game, scoring the first 34 points in Super Bowl LIX before settling for a 40-22 win in the end.

Jalen Hurts was named Super Bowl MVP after his stellar play through the air and on the ground. He dissected the Chiefs' aerial defense, throwing for 221 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. He also wreaked havoc against Kansas City's defensive line, rushing for 72 yards and a touchdown.
