Justin Timberlake Will Headline The Super Bowl LII Halftime Show

I know a lot of people are boycotting the NFL, but I have a feeling some will still tune in for Super Bowl LII. I know I will– especially if the Patriots are in it again this year. (Here’s hoping! I’m actually watching the Pats/Falcons game as I write this.)

Either way, I’ll watch it. I always do, and NOT just for the commercials and snacks. I just love football. Always have. And I’m actually kind of excited about the Super Bowl halftime performer. Nope. It’s not Bey. It’s…Justin Timberlake!

I DO have the time. Half the time…#PepsiHalftime #SBLII @Pepsi @NFL @JimmyFallon @FallonTonight pic.twitter.com/4Z4Dz29l3X

“The Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show is the most-watched musical event of the year,” the NFL stated in a press release. “Last year’s show was the most-watched musical event of all-time across all platforms and the most-watched Super Bowl Halftime performance in history through broadcast and digital channels, reaching more than 150 million unique people, garnering more than 80 million views and totaling 260 million minutes watched.”

 

As previously reported, it’s been 14 years since the former N*Sync artist’s infamous performance with Janet Jackson in which she accidentally exposed her bare breast on live TV. The moment, which became known as Jackson’s “wardrobe malfunction” prompted stark outrage from viewers and led to a delay in all live broadcasts.

We certainly don’t need to repeat THAT moment again.

Brb. Jamming out.
