Superbowl Halftime show

[tvje]

What are your thoughts on the Superbowl halftime show?

I am disappointed that Janet Jackson did not preform her new song, overal an adverage show.

There were rumors that Michael Jackson would make a surprise appearance, they were close, the Michael Jackson wannabe Justin Timberlake made an apperance.

[¤I Love Clay Aiken¤]

I loved it. Still not my favorite, but Janet did Rhythm Nation and Justin did Rock Your Body.

[*Marilyn Monroe*]

Rythym Nation. Only good part.

Kid Rock? Why the hell was he even THERE?

I guess MTV won't be producing anymore halftime shows for the NFL, read this...



Statement regarding the Super Bowl halftime show

Statement by NFL Executive Vice President Joe Browne regarding the Super Bowl halftime show:

"We were extremely disappointed by elements of the MTV-produced Halftime show. They were totally inconsistent with assurances our office was given about the show. It's unlikely that MTV will produce another Super Bowl halftime."

No... why was Jessica Simpson there?!

[Mr. Stefani]

Oh lip synching at its finest. That was crap. Who the hell wants to hear Diddy and Kid Rocks old ass songs.

Janet looks like a man.

[tvje]

Thanks for the picture SBTB geek.

[dandelion wine]

It was alright, I guess. The only part I really enjoyed was watching Janet Jackson perform "Rhythm Nation."

At least she has had something going on in recent memory.

Both Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake are upstagers. Plain and simple. Janet for wanting to gain the spotlight from her brother Michael and Justin for getting back at Brittany Spears for the Madonna-Brittany kiss at the MTV Awards. And I do think that it was planned because you just don't go out there and take off a piece of clothing and call it a blooper mistake.

I'm glad that CBS dropped their sponsorship with MTV. Maybe next year we will get something better and more wholesome than what happened last night.

[tvje]

The Patriots aren't the only winners last night, another winner is Beyonce, who did a great preformance of the national anthem without lipsyncing, and comes accross as being classy, compaired to the Halftime show.

Janet is quilty of stealing the spotlight, but not from her washup freak of a brother, from her new rival Beyonce.

And layoff of Janet, atleast she did not licker children up and have sex with them, like a certain someone.

Yeah, I would of understood if she actually performed, but she didn't. She didn't belong there at all.

But she stripped off a piece of clothing, revealing her boob, on national LIVE television. When kids were watching. Luckily, my 6 year old brother just thought there were clothes on that LOOKED like her boob.

I think that Beyonce did a wonderful job at singing the National Anthem. She's so amazing.

You created this thread asking for thoughts. You're getting them.

Some people, including myself, have some strong opinions on Jan & Justie's disgusting display. This is an open forum.

[tvje]

Yeah, I created this board and getting responds, which is what I want. When I start a post, like most of you, I rather half everyone disagree with my original point, than get no reply at all.

But you guys don't get, when I said "Lay off Janet", I was half joking, that was just a set up for my Michael Jackson joke.

Though I really don't see what the big deal is, it is the NFL's fault, you get what you paid for.

[I Love Carol Burnett!]

I thought it was stupid

[pna42]

Justin is an idiot. Janet just seemed desperate. Worst halftime show ever. Bunch of B and C list lip synching old songs. Justin's 15 minutes of fame are running out. Janet needs to spend time in Michael's panic room. Jessica Simpson...please...just go away....please....for the love of god....and take your retard husband with you. Oooops. I'm sorry. I just insulted the retards by lumping Nick in with them.:rolleyes: :D

It's good that MTV won't have anything to do with the Superbowl Halftime show anymore. It seems like they have the same artist each time. If I remember correctly, on the last Superbowl, Aerosmith, Nelly, Justin Timberlake(he was with NSYNC then) and I think P Diddy performed. Why have they been performing at these games? I want to see some different performers.... SNL will probably do a skit about it.

[Dean Winchester]

I personally think media is making too big a deal over it. The FCC are really prudish. A boob is a boob!!

I mean, we saw a closeup of Kim Cattrall's vagina (using the formal word because I dunno if the other slangs for it are "allowed") on Sex And The City a few months ago, and you didn't see the FCC freaking out over it. Janet's breast is small potatoes compared to Kim's vagina.

Banning Janet and Justin from the Grammys is stupid, Justin is up for a bunch of awards and I don't think he should be banned from it because of the thing with Janet. If Justin won some Grammys (even tho I think we all know Outkast will win), he has the godgiven right to be able to accept his award.

Yes I know people say "it's supposed to be a family show" and everything, but if you ask me, I don't think Kid Rock (who did a VH1 promo last Christmas where he was on top of a chimney taking a dump.... sorry, I find that more revolting than nudity is) or P. Diddy are exactly ideal for a "family hour" setting either.

I agree. MTV doesn't quite have the relevance it had even 5 years ago, especially since it's not like they still show videos.

I heard Fuse (a rock version of MTV... at least for now) is going to do it next year. I hope they kick butt and makes MTV cringe because MTV has been garbage ever since they started treating reality shows as a bigger priority than actual music related programming (sorry, Newlyweds and The Osbournes do not count as "music programming")

I don't see Fuse producing a halftime show either, they feature a lot of videos from hard rock bands and I think Super Bowl people would even shy away from them. I'd bet more likely they'd do something with CMT, Country Music Television. They'd have presumably less "offensive" artists while at least maintaining a relationship with MTV since CMT is part of MTV Networks.

[That Other Fan]

I love the "we must protect the children of the world" lines that have been thrown around in response to Janet.

(I would include Justin, but apparently his "apple pie smile" has convinced the world that he has to take no type of real responsibility for what happened...Didn't he disrupt the kids just as much as Janet? After all it was his hand that revealed the 'wardrobe malfunction')


BTW, anyone ever thought about what our kids are being exposed to just watching the wholesome fun of the super bowl (the actual game...not the halftime show;)).

[Eddie Haskell]

So the Panthers kicker, John Kasay wasn't the only boob at the Superbowl. :wave:

[tvje]

I agree with the Other Fan, people who are upset for the children, are a little hippocritical or just ignorent. Why are their children watching a Football to begin with? Not only is it violent, I know that in the NFL, the players use obsene language on the field all the time. Not to mention the players off the field problems.

I heard John Kassey's excuse is that he couldn't get the halftime show out of his mind.

[dlemond]

I could care less about a little boob on TV and kids see far worse in terms impressionable material everyday.

But I just don't like the idea of Janet Jackson thinking she can get over on CBS, MTV and the NFL and have a free publicity stunt.

She knew what she was doing and that there would be backlash-so she should pay accordingly- not for showing boob, but for purposely being a pain in the ass.

[tvje]

It is a bunch of bull, CBS, MTV, and the NFL, they knew what was going to happen. No matter what Jackson says. Besides, I think the boob was the least offensive part of the halftime show.

Look at how the other preformers conducted themselfs and the language they used. Nelly was grabbing his crotch, and Kid Rock was wearing the American flag as some so of puncho, that is on everybody, and no one can say CBS and the NFL knew nothing about that.

[felicitylen]

That Other Fan I love the "we must protect the children of the world" lines that have been thrown around in response to Janet.

I love that line also. "we must protect the children" and show the guy who walks around naked on Survivor. Yes, let's protect the children. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: People need to get a grip and get off it. They are acting like they haven't seen a boob before. How many times have children walked in on their mother changing clothes. CBS, NFL, MTV and the FCC are full of crap! The FCC needs to watch tv more often and they'll see more then a boob.

I think Justin is liking the attention. He needs to keep his mouth close if he's going to change his story each time a different reporter talks to him. One moment he said it was to give the people something to talk about and last night I heard him say he was appalled and shocked and that he was trying to cover her up. :rolleyes:

[Penny Lane]

What the Super Bowl needs is a class act for a change!
How about...................................:yeahthat

[musicradio77]

I saw that part on the halftime show 2 weeks ago. I know that Justin would let Janet Jackson off of his back. I saw it on the news at one time in which Janet doesn't show bosoms on live TV.

Is this why they call it the Boob Tube? :crazy:
