America has spoken and the Black Eyed Peas aren't going to like what it had to say. According to an ESPN poll, every single state in the union gave them an F for their Super Bowl halftime performance.via cdn0.sbnation.com

It may not have been entirely their fault, but I can't say as though I disagree. The awful mixing that basically made the music inaudible and cranked up the really poor vocals made it worse than it had to be, but that's not really an excuse.

The low point had to be when Slash rises out of the stage and Fergie belts out the first verse/chorus of "Sweet Child Of Mine" that was so bad she would have been one of the people Fox puts in the American Idol commercials for you to laugh at. She sounded like a slightly manlier, more off key Axl Rose. ABC News referred to her performance as "just plain out of tune."

In second place for the most awful moment? The incredibly short and oddly out of place Usher cameo. What was the point of that?
