Seriously? OMG! WTF?

I have been sleeping with Tubi since 2019, so it has been fun to watch it grow.

It has grown so much that Fox bought it! And because they have, the free streamer is going to air the Super Bowl on February 9th.

Olivia Culpo will host Tubi Red Carpet at Super Bowl LIX starting at 3:30p on game day. The special covers the celebrity, fashion, and culture behind America’s biggest sports event.

Starting on January 28th, Tubi will add an NFL Channel in conjunction with Fox Sports. It will show programming with historical Super Bowls, iconic halftime shows, best of NFL Honors, NFL analysis, and more, which will be announced at a later date.

Until then, you watch one of the thousands of movies or TV shows! I promise you will be sleeping with it too.

A post shared by Kendrick Lamar (@kendricklamar)

The NFL, Roc Nation, and Apple Music announced today who is taking over the Super Bowl Halftime show, and Drake is not going to like it. That is because they asked Kendrick Lamar, and he said yes.

“Few artists have impacted music and culture as profoundly as Kendrick Lamar,” NFL head of music Seth Dudowsky added. “Time and time again, Kendrick has proven his unique ability to craft moments that resonate, redefine, and ultimately shake the very foundation of hip-hop.”

“Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date. And I’ll be there to remind the world why,” Lamar said in a statement. “They got the right one.”

Do you think they got this one right?

This is the second time he has played the SBHS. In 2022, he Rapped out with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Mary J. Blige. Who do you think will be joining him on the football stage? I say Drake will be one of the surprise artists.

The Taylor Swift Effect is a real thing. Don’t believe me? Well, yesterday’s Super Bowl was watched by over 120 million people on CBS. That makes it the most-watched telecast in television history on a single network.

Here is the breakdown that CBS Sports sent out in a press release:

RECORD-SETTING VIEWERSHIP

• Super Bowl LVIII is the most-watched program ever, averaging 123.4 million viewers across all platforms, up +7% vs. last year’s Super Bowl which was the previous record (115.1 million).

• More than 200 million viewers (202.4) watched all or part of Super Bowl LVIII across networks, the highest unduplicated total audience in history and up +10% vs. last year’s Super Bowl (184 million).

CBS LEADS THE WAY WITH LARGEST AUDIENCE EVER FOR SINGLE NETWORK

• • Super Bowl LVIII on CBS led the way with 120.0 million viewers, the largest audience in history for a single network.

  • Super Bowl LVIII capped off a record-setting season for CBS Sports. The NFL ON CBS scored the most-watched regular season since the NFL returned to CBS in 1998 as well as the Network’s best postseason viewership since 1998.

Those numbers are astounding. And CBS needs to pay Swift a bonus because she is a large part of those numbers. Cause let’s be real. The people who helped to break that record were not tuning in to watch the Kansas Chiefs play the San Fransisco 49ers or Usher. They were tuning in for the singer!

I watch the big game every year for the commercials. Others watch for the actual game. And some for the halftime show. However, yesterday, first-timers were checking out because she introduced them to a game that their fathers watched.

And that is amazing! Swift is bringing families together! My friendship bracelet is off to her.

UPDATE: Tracker starring Justin Hartley, which aired after the game, scored a touchdown with 18.4 million viewers and is expected to gain another 7 million by its next episode on Sunday.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was seen by 3.74 people.

And finally, CBS took the cake with this spin. @fter Midnight scored its most-watched episode ever with 2.03 million viewers. Why is that such a hard sell? The show has only been on since January 16th, and it airs at 12:35a. So it ain’t ever going to see those numbers again.

A post shared by Tiësto (@tiesto)

Tiësto was slated to be the first DJ to play throughout the whole Super Bowl on Sunday, but he had to pull out from the football game.

“Me and my team have been preparing something truly special for months, but a personal family emergency is forcing me to return home Sunday morning,” he wrote. “It was a tough decision to miss the game, but family always comes first. Thank you to the @NFL for the collaboration and looking forward to working with them to deliver something incredible together in the future!”

Family does come first, and hopefully, all is OK with them.

Since Tiësto had to bow out, he will be replaced by Kaskade.

Yesterday, the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Fransisco 49ers made it to the Super Bowl on February 11th in Las Vegas.

So, United Airlines added some direct flights in honor of the players and one of the players’ girlfriends.

There are three flights leaving MCI, aka Kansas City, Missouri, and they are UA 1989 as if I need to explain that, UA 2287 in honor of Taylor Swift’s song and Travis Kelce’s jersey #, and finally US 1587 for Patrick Mahomes and Kelce.

I wonder how many people are going to try to get on UA !989! More than will get on the SF to Vegas flights UA 1995 and UA 1849. I am not going to research why those numbers are significant. All I care about are the Traylor ones!

Oh, and the singer won’t be on any of those flights. That is because she will most likely be doing a private flight from Tokyo to make it to the game in time. She has a concert in Japan on the 9th
