Following a piano introduction for her song, "The House That Jack Built", Franklin segued into "Touch My Body", and jokingly referred to the lyrics, telling the audience "As far as I’m concerned, what starts on the floor stays on the floor." A writer from Rap-Up commented on the performance, calling it "absolutely priceless". Similarly, a writer from the Chicago Tribune complemented Franklin's live rendition of "Touch My Body", calling it "simple, enjoyable and sweet".
