The Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show, which was broadcast live on February 1, 2004, from Houston, Texas, on the CBS television network, is notable for a moment in which Janet Jackson’s right breast and nipple—adorned with a nipple shield—was exposed by Justin Timberlake to the viewing public.
In April 2021, celebrity stylist Wayne Scot Lukas claimed that the incident was planned by Timberlake, who sought to upstage his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears’ MTV Video Music Awards appearance at which she kissed Madonna.
Jackson’s outfit was designed by famed designer Alexander McQueen, with Jackson later commenting, “I don’t blame him; he didn’t rip it. Alexander is so great at what he does—he’s a genius.”
