It's been officially confirmed that Madonna is serving as the Halftime entertainment for the upcoming 46th Superbowl this February. It's been rumored since October that the Material Girl would be doing the big show and now that it's confirmed, one has to wonder what the NFL is thinking.
No offense but Madonna is not the first artist I associate with football. Up until a couple of months ago, it was Hank Williams Jr. But since his foot was formally introduced to his mouth, that's a no go. I know that the NFL wants to include as many demographics as possible, but Madonna doesn't sound like an artist most families or football dads can relate to.
Well, it's obvious that we don't want to see a repeat of the 2004 nip slip seen around the world, it's also a brazen reminder that youthful ad demographics and football don't mix. I'm sure that previous acts were unknown by the biggest demographic until they were on the Superbowl.
However, with Madonna she automatically carries an audience because she is such an icon. And in that, an icon known for wagging tongues with her controversial approach to her music and image. Well, we can at least know this won't be a boring set like the lean years post JJ and JT at the Superbowl.
Here's hoping for a brilliant, not crazy nor drab expression of self and music at the Superbowl for once.
