Jessica Alba Faces Backlash for Her 'Bad Dancing,' Accused of Pretending Not To Know How To Dance
Jessica Alba unfazed by Super Bowl 'bad dancing' criticisms

The Super Bowl half-time show proved to be the perfect venue to bring together Latin American performers and celebrities in the United States. Other than Bad Bunny headlining the show, several other artists were invited to make a cameo with the singer. This includes Jessica Alba, Pedro Pascal, Cardi B, Ricky Martin, and more.
Bad Bunny performed some of his most famous songs at the sports event. He was joined on stage by Martin, who performed an acoustic version of 'Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawái' or 'What Happened to Hawaii?' Lady Gaga also took the stage to perform a special version of her hit song, 'Die With a Smile'. The rest of the Latin American artists simply danced on stage.
Jessica Alba's Dancing in Question
Everyone seemed to have a blast grooving to Bad Bunny's tracks, but fans couldn't help but notice Alba. The actress, who is of Mexican-American descent, donned a white corset and high-rise jeans at the Super Bowl. Even though she looked absolutely stunning in front of the cameras, fans couldn't help but compare her performance with that of Cardi B's and Karol G's.
Cardi B and Karol G danced to the tracks while Alba just stood there with a huge smile on her face. On social media, fans couldn't help but call Alba an imposter for allegedly pretending she didn't know how to dance. Others also pointed out how good Alba's dancing was in the film 'Honey', and this just heightened claims that she faked it at the Super Bowl.

'Haven't all of us been in this position before where you don't fit in and just make the best of it?' another person wrote.

Another fan uploaded a clip from one of Alba's films, where she is seen dancing. 'What I expected Jessica Alba to give when I saw her pop up on my screen during last night's Super Bowl Halftime Show,' the fan captioned the video.
Loyal Supporters Showed Support
Of course, there were also those that showed their support for Alba. They said that it's possible the actress didn't know that she was supposed to dance in the first place. Others said that Alba must have been nervous to be at the Super Bowl.
'To everyone dissing her, have you ever performed in front of so many millions?' one fan wrote.
Others pointed out how beautiful Alba looked and expressed their disappointment over the fact that she was only shown on camera for a few seconds.
Can't Care Less
On her Instagram account, Alba shared several photos and videos of her performance at the Super Bowl. She also reposted some of the clips that her fans uploaded on the social media platform.
One of her posts shows Alba together with all the other artists tapped to make a cameo during Bad Bunny's performance. Another clip shows her smiling from ear to ear while panning the camera to the other performers beside her.
