Who The Hell Is This Guy?

And why is he on my TV during the Super Bowl Halftime Show?


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

They tried to get Grand Funk Railroad but they are mostly dead now.

Time to realize that the NFL no longer caters to only old white guys.

FYI it's DeBarge's nephew.

Weeknd is awesome. Very talented.


They/them, non-binary and proud.

Evidently Tom Brady didn't get the memo!

The advertisers have. Who is more important?

Heaven forbid someone have an opinion or not know about a musical artist that might be contrary to the TCT Agenda©

In the TCT warped view of the world, no one is allowed any personal preferences unless they have previously been approved as 100% politically correct in his eyes.

Exhibit A of what a sad world this has become.

My wife thinks Michael Buble' would have been an excellent choice. Last I checked, he's still alive.

Ouch.

I listened to a couple of his songs online. He sounds like everybody else... but he’s got the random disjointed fucks sprinkled in there. If you’re gonna swear then make it mean something...

Are we now just trolling? Because that's what the board is missing, a new troll.

Back to my original comment, the advertisers are looking for a more diverse audience than older than 40 white men. The NFL has been working quite hard to widen its appeal so it doesn't end up like NASCAR.

This has been going on for the entire season I don't see why any football fan is particularly surprised they picked an artist that resonates better with Gen y and z then with Gen x or the Boomer crowd.

Weeknd spent more than 7 million dollars of his own money on that production. The sound design was marginal, the energy level was not comparable to some of the other artists that the NFL has had. But if you look at his draw and appeal you understand why the NFL went this direction. Pepsi had a very big say in selecting Weeknd.

Well of course they are going to go younger. I’m just lamenting how much the guy sucks is all. But I like fast paced music. Slow music makes me look at my watch.

I honestly haven't been impressed with very many halftime shows.

Lady Gaga jumping off the top of the building was impressive, Britney Spears and Aerosmith was kind of cool. I think I remember U2 sometime back.

I guess over the top theatrics don't really resonate with me.

Prince was far and away the best. Even God agrees. It started pouring when he played the first few chords of Purple Rain.
