AceShowbiz - Coldplay's headlining set at the Super Bowl 50 included special appearances from Beyonce Knowles, Bruno Mars, Mark Ronson and, according to Taraji P. Henson, Maroon 5. Following the halftime show on Sunday night, February 7, the "Empire" actress who was among those in attendance took to Instagram to show love for the Adam Levine-fronted band.
"YAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!! #maroon5 is life to me!!! #superbowl50 #HappyCamper I am," she wrote alongside a video of Chris Martin and his Coldplay pals, with no Maroon 5 in sight, taking the stage. Her fans then flooded the comment section with messages saying that she had the wrong band in mind.
After realizing her mistake, Henson deleted the video and wrote on Twitter, "Oooooooopppps. Lmao! #Superbowl50." However, Levine shared via his own Instagram page a screengrab of Henson's post and simply commented on it, "THIS."
Oooooooopppps. Lmao! #Superbowl50
