The NFL and Pepsi announced today who will be rocking the Super Bowl Halftime Show, and it is quite the lineup. We are all going to be bustin’ a move to Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar on February 13th.
“The opportunity to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, and to do it in my own backyard, will be one of the biggest thrills of my career,” said Dr. Dre. “I’m grateful to JAY-Z, Roc Nation, the NFL, and Pepsi as well as Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar for joining me in what will be an unforgettable cultural moment.”
Together the five of them have 43 Grammys and 22 No. 1 Billboard albums. Take that The Weeknd. He was a snoozefest; they are going to wake us up.
I still haven’t figured out how Lamar fits in with the other GOATs, but I am sure they all need someone they can boss around and get them joints and coffee.
The SBHS airs on NBC. I am surprised they didn’t ask The Voice coaches to do it. Oh, yeah, the last time one of them did it, he left the singing competition a few months later.
First off, I will admit that I didn’t watch the Super Bowl yesterday. From what I understand, I didn’t miss anything.
Well, maybe I missed something like a man running down the field in a hot pink one-piece bathing suit and black shorts. As soon as security saw him, they chased after him like he was the quarterback on the team holding the game-winning ball. He was able to outrace them and score something the Kansas Chiefs didn’t. That thing was a touchdown.
Not exactly a touchdown. He fell down, and several officers touched him.
While the people at home did not get to see this all happen, fans at the stadium did. I saw several videos shot from the yard lines. But datguy_rob captured it from the End Zone. Do you know what? It was even better from the head-on angle.
BTW How much do you want to bet that he lost a bet while he was drunk, and that is why he did it?
Whoever has been booking the Super Bowl Halftime Shows for CBS should find a new job. First, they screwed up with Coldplay that left us cold. Then they followed it up with Maroon 5, who made us wish we were marooned on an island without them. And now, they gave us The Weeknd.
He was so boring the Kansas City Cheifs’ fans were able to sleep through the rest of the game like their team slept through all four quarters when they didn’t even score one touchdown.
Just One of the Guys’ Joyce Hyser Robinson had the best meme reaction to The Weeknd’s masked dancers. If you never seen the movie, then you should watch it now.

For some reason, CBS and Pepsi think that The Weeknd is going to be an exciting halftime show at the Super Bowl this year. As with Maroon 5 and Coldplay, they are wrong.
Therefore, it looks like Pepsi is going to invest heavily into it, instead of in commercials during the football game.
Todd Kaplan, Pepsi’s vice president of marketing, told Varietys, “we are going to double down on our existing 12 minutes in the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show in the middle of the Super Bowl, and we are going to build it out like we have never built it out before.”
What that means, we will find out on February 7th. That is if we don’t fall asleep during his performance. It is not that his music is boring. It is just that it is not right for this stage. There is nothing about it that pumps you up. It is just too mellow. It goes better with pot and ecstasy than beer.
The other day, I was wondering if they are going to have an act for the Super Bowl Halftime Show. Then I wondered if there is going to a Super Bowl at all. Well, the answer is yes to both.
Today, Pepsi, CBS, and the NFL announced that The Weeknd is going to perform at the halftime show in Tampa Bay on February 7th. CBS is the same network that thought that Coldplay and Maroon 5 were good ideas. I think from now on; they should not be allowed to pick music artists for the big show.
Seriously, who thought The Weeknd was a good idea? If they wanted someone whose song is big on TikTok, they should have gone with Jason Derulo. He would be a much better choice. Plus, he could have gotten BTS and Will Smith to join him. Who is The Weeknd going to get to sing with him in the Blinding Lights?
Actually, this year more than any other in the past, they needed a really rocking band like Bon Jovi. That is because there is not going to be a full audience, and they are going to need someone who can pump whatever crowd there is. The Weeknd is going to put them to sleep. I am already falling asleep thinking about it.
Are you excited for him to perform at the Super Bowl?
