This year, the Philadelphia Eagles will play the New England Patriots. The game, which is supposed to begin at 5:30 p.m. Sunday, will actually start at 4:15 a.m. Monday.
To accommodate the FOXXXIX Subsection 2b Network, the halftime show will be held before the game. This year’s show features Paul McCartney, Britney Spears, Madonna, four country singers with real big cowboy hats, two Simpsons, 37 Osmonds and no Jacksons. It also has been announced that former President Bill Clinton will be at the Super Bowl and, in an apparent unrelated move, security around the cheerleaders for both teams has been tripled

I don't believe this rumor.After last's year show,I don't think they wanna risk having any more controversy,lol.They're gonna stick with "safe" artists from now on.Madonna and Britney do not fit that criteria.

im crossing my fingers anyways

Did you know that Madonna was scheduled to perform at the 1999 Super Bowl,but she backed out at the last minute? What a shame.She could have done "Ray Of Light" and kicked ass.

In who's fantasy? Not only would football fns not have digged it, how could a mimed performance ever kick ass?

Anyway I heard the show wasn't gonna have a delay, it was gonna be live. This was as of last week so I doubt they'll risk anything.

Oh please,how do you know what football fans would like? Like it or not,Madonna is a popular artist.Her performance would have been more exciting than the actual game.

This is about the least likely thing I've heard all year. Britney's too busy pouring beer on her cornflakes, anyway.

DavidEye said:

honestly
madonna fans would buy the tickets just to see her and leave.
i hate football anyways, i only watch the superbowl for the halftime show

VoicesCarry said:

I don't care about Britney. as long as madonna's there everything will be ok

DavidEye said:

I heard it was because they wouldn't allow her to wear her "Snatch" t-shirt on stage, so she was like fuck it

Just thought i'd help out and break your run of replying to yourself jayaredee!

Marrk said:

while quoting other people?
you're just jealous michael will be in court whil madonna's kicking ass

jayaredee said:

It doesn't matter who performs at the Super Bowl. For me, nothing will ever, ever, ever top the high camp of Diana Ross performing at the 1996 Super Bowl and leaving via helicopter. "Here comes my ride!" I still laugh when I think about it.

madonna will be singing IMAGINE,if this rumor is true.

purplegypsy said:

Don't get me wrong,it worked very well on the Re-Invention Tour,but she doesn't need to keep performing it over and over.Why not sing something fast and lively?

jayaredee said:

Check my profile, i like Madonna too. Kind of. Sometimes.

If Madonna were to do it, she should do it herself. It seems strange that she even did the Tsuanmi thing (which was for a great cause, yes...but most of the people on the show are so far below her). It sounds like a desperte effort to fit in all of the sudden. That is not my Madonna!

VoicesCarry said:

Y'all! Don't knock it 'til you try it!

purplegypsy said:

Where did you hear this?
She will be booed if she does, she knows better

I sure hope she doesn't. It's a stupid sport. Football what a joke!! Therefor I'd be forced to watch; if even the halftime show and give the superbowl attention and ratings. I'm just trying to figure out what she'd sing? "American Life" might be fitting. "..I do yoga and pilates and the football field is full og hotties..so I'm checking out the bodies and you know I'm satisfied...NOT!"

No i got the latest scoop

Paul is gonna play guitar while madonna and britney sing "Nobody Knows Me."
and Paul gets some verses in the song.

It's a cry out to the world as they are mega popular but nobody knows them

"Forty years after the Beatles rocked the Gator Bowl, Paul McCartney will return to Jacksonville to perform at the Ameriquest Mortgage Super Bowl XXXIX Halftime Show. That's only part of a full week's worth of events and excitement to be held in Jacksonville. The Friday night concert before the game will be highlighted by Josh Gracin, an up-and-coming country music superstar who first appeared on American Idol 2.

Grammy Award winner and multi-platnum recording artist Alicia Keys has been added to the lineup. Keys will perform "America the Beautiful" on the field as part of a pregame show that will include Gretchen Wilson, Black Eyed Peas and John Fogerty. But before Super Sunday, make sure to check out Patti LaBelle and a group of inspirational stars at the Super Bowl Gospel Celebration."

IT was just a guess if the rumor is true...

DavidEye said:

It might've worked for you Davideye, but when I heard her sing this on the Tsunami benefit night, I thought I would be sick. She was out of tune and flat. I think good old JL would be mortified. She should stick to her own pop music and leave the genius of JL alone.

jayaredee said:

Snatch was released after Music which was 2000. Don't think that rumor is true

kisscamille said:

he was talking about her performing it during the re-invention tour, not the tsunami benefit.

jayaredee said:

Yes, I know what Davideye was talking about. Either way, she should not be doing that song. EVER!

kisscamille said:

Meh, i liked her version and it fit perfectly with the show and got an awesome reaction from the crowd
to each their own
