Good lord, Janet wasn't the ONLY one who performed that Sunday night (although she did headline it). P. Diddy, Nelly and Kid Rock were there too
 I try to forget about them... What really irks me about the whole Janet Jackson/Tittygate episode is that the Super Bowl that year ran some of the most offensive TV commercials ever seen on US television, with crotch biting dogs and flatulent horses passing gas  in a woman's face with explosions  , not to mention a whole series of erectile dysfunction commercials yet few people even barely raised a peep about that. But flash a titty and its OMFG!  Who will protect the children!?! They'll be scarred for life!

The only halftime show that I paid attention to since the Janet fiasco was Prince's which my all time favorite. I wish I would have taped it  But Paul McCartney's was my all time least favorite, it was so damn boring that I changed the channel. Tom Petty didn't interest me and Bruce doesn't really either. Other than Prince, I really did enjoy the year when U2 performed.I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

Did Janet Ruin Super Bowl Halftime Shows for the Urban Audience? Posted Jan 29th 2009 2:00PM by Quibian Salazar-Moreno Filed under: Casually Obsessed, Sports The halftime show for Super Bowl XXXVIII featured Jessica Simpson, Nelly, P. Diddy, Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson. We're all know what happened with the 'wardrobe malfunction' but lately it looks like the controversy was not only detrimental to CBS' pockets and Janet's career, but also to the young urban NFL fans. Since the incident in 2004, Super Bowl Halftime shows have targeted the older, mostly white, baby boomer crowds. Despite having Prince offer up probably the best Super Bowl halftime show since Michael Jackson's 1993 performance, halftime during the Super Bowl have been lackluster as of late. ... Since Janet's incident we've had Paul McCartney (2005), The Rolling Stones (2006), Prince (2007), Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers (2008) and this year we have Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Except for Prince, did anyone under the age of 40 stick around to watch these? I'm sure folks like Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Kanye West, Beyonce, Ne-Yo, Usher, T.I., Leona Lewis and too many others to list, aren't too busy on Sunday, how come no one is calling them? Looks like halftime will be the best time to use the bathroom during this year's Super Bowl. Janet Jackson Pictures I would rather see the "old school" artists instead of those lame acts mentioned above. | |

You never know what old school black act they might decide on.
Seems like they have stuck with a successful formula for now. | |

I hate those Godaddy.com ads. Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off | |

I really didn't get why it was blown out of proportion... its just a boob. Plus it's still one of the best halftime shows ever! | |
