Super Bowl: A Los Angeles Rams victory and a hip-hop half-time show
Dr Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Mary J Blige, Kendrick Lamar and 50 Cent came together for the half-time show.
The Los Angeles Rams scored a late touchdown to beat the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 in Super Bowl 56. With the game taking place at SoFi Stadium, the Rams are only the second team to win a Super Bowl in their own stadium after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers achieved the feat last year.
Dr Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Mary J Blige and Kendrick Lamar came together for the half-time show. Eminem was seen taking the knee towards the end of his segment - the same thing former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick did during the US national anthem ahead of games in 2016. Since then, more high-profile figures have taken the knee in solidarity with Kaepernick, and it has become synonymous with the Black Lives Matter movement. After Sunday's game, an NFL spokesman denied reports that the league had told Eminem he couldn't take the knee. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Sophie Long outlines the event's key moments.
