No nippleage promised during Super Bowl halftime show – disappointed?

[Chuck Bao]

So…Madonna has promised not to have a wardrobe malfunction during the Super Bowl halftime show. I think that I'm offended, but not sure exactly why.


At the Super Bowl in Indianapolis on Feb. 5, Madonna will have the unusual experience of surrendering much of the control she treasures, if not creatively, at least logistically, to the National Football League and NBC. That means staging a memorable performance within the rigid timing and space constraints of a football game and without any Federal Communications Commission-inciting offenses like the infamous wardrobe malfunction that accompanied Janet Jackson's 2004 show.
"I have 12 minutes and 40 seconds to do something extravagant and exciting in the middle of something that's quite sacred to all of America," she said. "No one's asked me to tone down my moves. They were curious about my costumes and the costumes of the dancers.... They were very clear with us up front that they don't want nipples or anything like that, and I didn't have any intention of doing that, so I was like, 'OK, we're cool.'…
…Her high-stakes Indianapolis performance will serve as the launch for "Gimme All Your Lovin'," the first single off "MDNA."

I'll record the Game and if something slips out, I'll watch it later when the kids are out playing in the yard.

I hope there's a set malfunction and the halftime show collapses on itself.

I was busted carrying a copy of Madonna's 'Sex' back to Japan in the 1990's. Saved by a customs agent there who looked at it and told his subordinate, "That's not pornography, that's just stupid."

Should the ground open up and swallow them and then close up as if there was nothing to see....I wouldn't be surprised at all.

If I was a New Yorker or Giants Fan and was a part of the halftime show...I would definitely sit this one out just in case.

I couldn't care less about Madonna, but Cee-Lo is freakin awesome. I might have to actually watch this one.

This half time show is going to suck ***. Can we stop having half time shows with people who are 800 years old and way past their prime?

They had Black Eyed Peas last year. It was the worst halftime show I'd ever seen on TV. Of course, I've only seen like three half times on TV, but it was still awful.

With a few exceptions, boobs have a shelf life. If they are exposed after said shelf life, they have the opposite effect of fresh boobs.

I am so lost on this discussion and I had to google CeeLo to figure that out. Heh! Maybe his are pierced like Janet's.

But, I don't think CeeLo would be at all like Thai newspapers who used to love carrying photos of bare breasted transgendered and augmented peeps because there is nothing in law against it.

You're my hero for carrying Madonna's "Sex" across international borders and getting the funny about it being just plain stupid by the Japanese customs. Of course, the Japanese are a bit insular and they got their own very weird hangups going on. That still doesn't take away from your story being classic.

Have we been completely assured their will be no female armpit hair also?

How about an over-the-hill All Star band?

Jeff Beck, John Paul Jones, Keith Emerson, a still living drummer, with Morrisey and Brian Wilson? It could be a disaster, but it could be fun.
