The official announcement is expected tomorrow, but we can confirm that Beyonce has signed on to play the halftime show of Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans on February 3, live on CBS. There’s always plenty of hype surrounding this choice, and for good reason: Madonna last year drew more average viewers for her halftime performance than the overall average of the game (and a good game at that, with the Giants knocking off the Patriots). Officials have been more careful with their halftime choices since Janet Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” back in 2004, with the likes of mainstays Paul McCartney, Rolling Stones, Prince, Bruce Springsteen, The Who and Tom Petty getting the call post-Janet. But Beyonce is at the top of her game right now — and she can bring Jay-Z to boot.


Why?
Not a bad choice, but I hope she doesn’t have all that demonic imagery and Satan worship crap that she and Jay-Z typically serve up. If she chooses to be a Satanist that’s her stupidity, but forcing that crap on young kids is too much.
What the what?????
I defy you to show me even ONE example of Beyonce using “demonic imagery”
One more halftime show I won’t be watching.
Seriously, who chooses these losers?
Tracy Perlman chooses these losers. She’s had that Entertainment Programming gig since she was a cheerleader at Hofstra. Now, she’s VP and still choosing some b.s. talent. Beyonce is not in the league of the greats. Why hasn’t Tina Turner performed during halftime yet? Tina should be given precedence over someone who isn’t as seasoned as her.
Still don’t understand why Coldplay hasn’t gotten the nod.
I recognize that a lot of people aren’t Coldplay fans, and that’s fine, but they at least play arena rock–which should be the purpose of the halftime show. Plus, they ARE the best selling rock act in the world right now…AND they’re not old.
Seems like a no-brainer.
Boo!
Did we not get enough Illuminati symbolism with Madonna parading Baphomet around on her head last year?
I know right. Madonna did Egypt as a theme and it was obviously worshiping. That just makes me think that if the stars have sense enough to know that worship is real and there are idols that they can serve, why is everyone giving Christians a hard time? Obviously there some truth behind the spirit and God and salvation. It’s real. It’s very real.
Beyonce just isn’t in the same league as any of the performers listed above.
I think she is close enough to be the same league as the others that were mention. I don’t have a problem with her doing the half-time show. She is a better singer than Madonna and Janet.
Huh?
A fantastic choice and a fantastic artist. And if I see on more moron banging on about the Illuminati nonsense, I will eat someone’s hat.
The woman’s a Legend.
Come on now naive sheeple. Any successful person in hollywood has sold their sold to the devil… Do you think every talented, attractive, person who can sing makes 50 million dollars for just one pepsi contract.. Open your eyes… They don’t play fair and feed off and manipulate those who worship them. You are just as empowered, beautiful, and wonderful as she is, so please stop thinking she is better than you.. She may be able to sing, but i am sure there is something you can do that is wonderful, and just as valuable as her contributions to this world.. Regardless, their time is just about up. Peace and love…
Bummer. There were rumors of Van Halen taking the gig a few weeks back. Looks like I will spend halftime socializing this year.
Wake up sheeple!!
