Report: Madonna is old. And as such, might be doing the Super Bowl halftime show.

At least they aren't doing Lady Gaga though, that chick creeps me out. What do I care though, I usually play catch with whoever's over during halftime anyways lol.

They had "Halftime Heat", which was an empty arena match with The Rock vs. Mankind for the WWF title...I think that was for Super Bowl XXXIII. I don't think the NFL endorsed it or had anything to do with it.

It's amazing that 8 years after the wardrobe malfunction they're still picking incredibly obscure/non-provocative/past their prime people for the halftime shows.

Ah, I'm not a wrestling fan so I didn't know the details.

Like many have said, the halftime show isn't really worth watching most of the time. It's pretty much just to keep the people who are watching for the commercials or to not look stupid when people talk about it the next day tuned in.

The only band I really like that is popular enough to do a Super Bowl halftime would probably be the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but they aren't quite old and washed up yet so we're still a ways from that.

As always, the halftime show only exists as a food run.

Still, it's hard for anything to be worse than the Black Eyed Peas. Madonna may be a fossil, but at least she has some semblance of talent. Can't say that about BEP.

I think they can check out the strip hold up and other crisis methods since Madonna's vintage

They're definitely old, but nowhere near washed up. For the record, Madonna is 53, while Kiedis and Flea are about to turn 49, and Chad Smith turns 50 this month.

No, I meant Gaga. They're both on the album, along with Norah Jones, Aretha Franklin, Faith Hill, and a couple others.

Oh wow, didn't know that.

Geez, I thought they were younger. Definitely not washed up though, I really liked the last album they did, although it was a couple years ago if I'm remembering right.

That is all
