If you hadn’t heard, Adam Levine and the rest of Maroon 5 performed at the halftime show of Super Bowl LIII.
It was a boring Super Bowl (that’s just what I heard, I didn’t watch, I watched Russian Doll instead), and it seemed no one was exactly excited by the prospect of Maroon 5 performing.
Think this Super Bowl is boring? Well don’t worry, it’ll surely ramp up with halftime show by MAROON 5!!!

After all was said and done, the general consensus of the performance was: not great. Levine, 39, was the target of most of the ire online. Because, well, can you name another member of Maroon 5? (I can’t, and I wrote this story!) People had many, many thoughts about his outfit of choice, his tattoos of choice, and just, well, everything.
There's always a seat for you here. Hey Alma is here to make sure no one has to be Jewish alone. Your Passover gift keeps our community vibrant, our stories honest, and our space free for everyone.
Let’s take a look at the best jokes about Levine:
1. The Jewish people no longer claim him:

2. His shirt looked like a target pillow:

4. Jewish mothers panicking everywhere:
Adam Levine is covered with tattoos and took his shirt off outside in February.
Somewhere there is a very unhappy Jewish mother.

5. And so are Jewish grandfathers:
(Although let’s be clear, that whole Jews-with-tattoos-can’t-be-buried-in-a-Jewish-cemetery thing is a myth!)
OLD JEWISH GUY: You know, this Adam Levine yutz can't be buried in a Jewish cemetery.

6. Really, just Jewish parents in general:
[thousands of Jewish adolescent boys now promising their mothers they will never get tattoos like Adam Levine]

13. But maybe it motivated some to go to the gym…
“Adam Levine has some nerve!” he tweeted as he set his alarm for the gym, made a protein shake and hired a trainer.

14. “Manifest the energy of that dude you hook up with every year for Thanksgiving.”
Adam Levine, who has managed to manifest the energy of that dude you hook up with every year when you go home for Thanksgiving but whose friend request you will not accept, did a sexy lil strip show and revealed his very complicated Prison Break tattoos.https://t.co/k640I9cYia

15. NIPPLES:
now I have to explain to my children that adam levine has nipples

16. Seriously, what is up with the tattoos?

17. But let’s remember…
I’m sorry but Adam Levine should get the same grief as Janet did for showing us his unclothed nipples; more specifically, this should prove how absurd, hypocritical, racist and sexist that puritanical hysteria over Janet’s boob really was.
