Justin Timberlake 'finalizing' deal to perform at Super Bowl halftime
 
Quote:

The Super Bowl is going to get a familiar face for halftime of Super Bowl LII when the game comes to Minnesota. Pop superstar Justin Timberlake is reportedly "finalizing" a deal to perform at the event for the first time in 13 years.
According to US Magazine, Timberlake and the NFL are locking down a deal that will put him on the stage for the first time since the Patriots and Panthers played in the Super Bowl in 2004, when he very controversially ripped off part of Janet Jackson's bustier.

There have been different rumblings about possibilities for the halftime show, which will take place on February 4 in the Vikings new stadium in Minneapolis. Brittney Spears was rumored as someone who was interested in participating in the show. The NFL was reportedly rejected by a pair of big-name performers, including rapper Jay-Z and Adele.

There was also some chatter in the US Magazine report that Timberlake could be joined on the stage by Jay-Z, although a source told US that "as of right now, it will just be Justin — no surprise performers."
Timberlake's previous performance changed the way the halftime shows operate, with the Federal Communications Commission implementing a delay on live broadcasts after Jackson's nipple was revealed during the live broadcast rendition of Timberlake's song "Rock Your Body."

It's been fairly remarkable to see the maturation of Timberlake's career over that stretch -- he went from a member of popular boy band N'Sync to the guy who created the "NippleGate" controversy at the Super Bowl with Jackson and has now become one of the most well-liked performers of this generation, a guy who can crush it on stage solo, bring on other superstars like Jay-Z and also bring down the house while hosting "Saturday Night Live."

Bringing back Timberlake to the biggest stage in sports and music makes a lot of sense and he might just be able to break the record set by Lady Gaga this past year for the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show of all time.

Brother Leon 27-09-2017 04:18 PM

Jay Z turned it down so I was worried it may be Taylor Swift.

No he doesn't, do your homework

RileyH 27-09-2017 04:26 PM

ugh why

Samm 27-09-2017 05:31 PM

so janet is blacklisted but this misogynistic straight male is allowed back? over it, maybe he might have the decency to bring janet in or britney as his guest but I highly doubt it

Smithy 27-09-2017 05:37 PM

How is Justin misogynistic :conf2:

Locke. 27-09-2017 05:39 PM

He'd be a great choice all normal people like a bit of JT

Shaun 27-09-2017 06:03 PM

As long as he leaves Can't Stop The Feeling! out of the setlist I'm content with this

Ideal songs would be: Signs (with Snoop Dogg), Rock Your Body, Like I Love You, Senorita, SexyBack, My Love, Dead And Gone (with T.I.), Ayo Technology (with Timbaland) + Mirrors

I would say Cry Me A River too but it's not really a "showy" song. And I love Lovestoned/What Goes Around but they were third/fourth singles off his only good album so I won't hold my breath (not that I'm expecting Ayo Technology/Signs to feature either)

I can see the BEP making a cameo for Where is the Love, though...

:clap1: About time they got someone decent.
The only decent one's they've had since 2010 is Beyonce and Madonna. The less said about the others, the better.

King Gizzard 27-09-2017 06:05 PM

Good choice

Ross. 27-09-2017 06:05 PM

This was supposed to be Taylord's year

Oh yes, her too, but I'm more of a casual listener tbh.

Try as they might, many of the new generation of artists are laughable compared to the likes of Janet, Tina Turner, Prince, MJ and Madonna.
Some of them can't even dance, and end up making a complete and utter a$$ of themselves.

Even the most delusional of Katy Perry fans can admit that that was the Missy Elliott Halftime Show

Why is he misogynistic? :umm: I wouldn't say I was a fan but I have seen him in concert because I got a present if tickets. I love What goes Around though

Littlegreen 27-09-2017 06:41 PM

Piece of crap left Janet in the dust during nipplegate, so he can burn.

But he is a good choice for this.

Marsh. 27-09-2017 06:51 PM

Does he even have enough songs to fill the 15 minute slot? :umm2:

GiRTh 27-09-2017 08:08 PM

Saddened that Jay Z turned it down TBH. It should still be a great show with lots of his friends
