"This was the best moment when Justin Timberlake and Prince duet at the Superbowl Halftime Show. Crying," Isabella Cigno tweeted.
"Prince stole the show," Rydel Lynch tweeted.
"That #SuperBowl52 halftime tribute to Prince was pretty amazing," a Star Wars account, @LightsaberNews wrote.
With his image projected on a large drape and the entire stadium let up in purple lighting, Timberlake and Prince did a rendition of the pop icon's classic "I Would Die 4 U."
Rumors of Timberlake using a hologram of Prince as tribute to the deceased singer in his hometown were originally rebuked by Prince's family and his former fiancee.
"Family, I spoke [with] Justin 2nite and he shared heartfelt words of respect for Prince & the Purple fans. I look [forward] [to] seeing what I'm sure is going [to] be a spectacular halftime show. There is no hologram," Shelia E. said in a Instagram post on Saturday when rumors began spreading throughout the internet.
