Prince?

What a homo. Is that really all the NFL could muster as a halftime artist for their biggest game of the year? Better question, do people actually listen to his bullshit? I was surprised there were younger people on the field around his stage that actually knew the words to his songs.

I know they didn't want another nipple-flashing fiasco, but come on.

I would rather listen to Justin Timberlake sing about how he's sexy and stare at Janet Jackson's titty than suffer through that again!!

Anyone notice how his clothes didn't appear to get wet? Rayon? Vinyl?

halftime sucked, most commercials sucked except for the two budlight commercials, the one with the rock paper scissors fight, and the one with the wedding and the auctioneer.

the nipple would've been better. when he was behind that flowy curtain thing so all you could see was his silhouette and his guitar, it was like a huge curvy penis sticking out reminiscent of a bit from austin powers.

I actually like the price performance, mostly because he actually did some shredding on guitar. I liked the last two super bowl performances better than this one though, the stones were great last year and paul mcartney was pretty good either the year before.


I realized that I don't think we're the target demographic anymore, ever since tittygate there have been all older performers.

He's a good performer and musician and has been doing his crazy thing forever. I've never been a big fan, but it was decent as I expected it would be.

Soo who at CBS decided they would pay Prince a bajillion dollars to perform OTHER PEOPLES SONGS at the Super Bowl. If they were going to do that, why didn't they just get a good cover band

i thought the best commercial was chad's super bowl party, which aired before the game. the rest? well, they really sucked.
