‘Uncle Samuel L. Jackson … gangsta.’ Actor is special guest during Super Bowl halftime
Uncle Sam — aka Samuel L. Jackson — nearly stole the Super Bowl halftime show.
The “Pulp Fiction” actor was Kendrick Lamar’s special guest during the Super Bowl halftime show.
Dressed in patriotic red, white and blue, Jackson introduced the show, exclaiming “this is the great American game.”
Fans liked seeing him out on the field, with more than one social media commenter echoing this fan on X: “Samuel L. Jackson was the best part of it.”
After the show Jackson checked his cell phone.
If he was checking social media reactions, he should have been pleased.
