Mystery Act to Perform at Super Bowl
(AP, 01/31/2004 1:59 AM)

Janet Jackson , Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, Kid Rock and Nelly apparently weren't enough for the 12 1/2-minute Super Bowl halftime show.

Another act is poised to join the MTV-produced extravaganza. Who that is will remain a mystery until the program, producers said Thursday. The New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers play Sunday in Reliant Stadium.

The halftime production will require 350 local volunteers to haul and assemble 70 pieces of the stage, which spans 120 feet. Then about 2,500 youngsters from area schools will pour onto the field to create a festival concert atmosphere.

Combs said that as big a deal as the halftime show has become, the musicians are just a sideshow.

"This is all about the players," he said. "We're here to fill some time while they get ready for the second half."

The game will air on the CBS television network.

Yes. Prince will perform the cut "Rainbow Children" for millions of drunk alpha-males.

NME said:

Lennay? If it is, YAWN A ROONIE, bring a book.

Its Justin Timberlake.
Now you know.
All this guessing can stop.

It's definitely Justin Timberlake.I'm not happy about it either...

According to janet-love.com, it's Justin Timberlake. I love Justin, but I hardly think he's worthy of being a "Mystery Act".

Oh, right...I remember reading about how JT and JJ are gonna do a duet that'll tie in with a single or a video or some shit...blah blah blah...I can't believe how they're trying to push JT off like some kind of classic mega-legendary entertainer or something, they really need to give it a rest.

Well I obviously don't pay much attention to Superbowls. Like I said, I figured it wouldn't be Prince but I was bored and figured why not start a thread about it.

beautifulone7 said:

You're entitled just like everybody else, and at least yours is a legit thread, as opposed to some of the idiotic threads that are created around here. I was just saying (in essence) that I doubt it would be him.

If it turned out to be Prince, we'd all die of shock!
