Beyonce to perform at Super Bowl 47 Halftime Show

Once again the NFL and Super Bowl organisers have let us down. Rock music is the perfect stadium music and if I was the one who chose it I'd pick a rock band every year.

Although she'll be easier on the eyes than Fergie and Madonna. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGc9n6BiWXA

Not happy with Beyonce but wouldn't want any rock bands either.

Eh she will be alright, and she will flaunt her stuff so I'm not complaining

Really? I'd rather see a relevant act in the prime of her career than wheeling out some 70-80's has been that seems to of been the criteria in recent years.... Call me shallow but she'll put on a energetic exciting show & she'll look good doing it so no complaints here

In honesty, half time is time to make a sandwich and go to the toilet (probably not in that order) for me, so I don't mind

Pretty big name though - so it's positive that the game can draw such a huge star to perform

Sodhat, I think you have it back to front the so called stars use the Superbowl as an advert for themselves record sales perfume etc. They know the viewing figures will be massive so I wouldn't be surprised that their agents fall over each other to get their stars on at half time or am I being cynical?
Beyounce I can do without.

There's usually 8 of us watch it every year and without fail halftime is used for a 4on4 touch football in the road so can't say the announcement of Beyonce will change that

In a roundabout way it's what I'm saying, that the audiences are so huge and the popularity so high that even the biggest stars are interested to plug whatever awful products they have.

Lets be honest every single musician if they received a call asking them to perform in front of roughly a billion people would take the offer. I guess the benefit for the NFL of choosing a "star" like Beyonce is the potential for her fans who don't know about American Football to watch the game just to see her so it could bring in more international fans, though maybe not a lot.

Might be able to get my gf to watch it now

She'll be no doubt hoping her hometown of Houston are there.
