The Super Bowl has become a great concert that features a football game
Usher, Beyonce, Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, Ice Spice, Post Malone, Andra Day, Reba McEntire, Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Lil Jon, Ludacris, Jermaine Dupri, and will.i.am all performed or were at the same party on a Sunday night in Las Vegas.

I rewatched the Nipplegate halftime show for the first time in 20 years and it was magnificent
You — yes, I am talking to you — are getting old. I might have pointed at my own face in the mirror and said that when Xwitter informed me that Thursday was the 20th anniversary of the infamous Nipplegate halftime show. ...

You can be happy Usher is playing the Super Bowl and still mad that Jay-Z sold out Colin Kaepernick’s movement

The world is a tough place, take a quick break and listen to Jordan Mailata sing
Last week was a rough one in America. Sunday was the 59th anniversary of the passing of the Civil Right Act. It was celebrated by the United States Supreme Court swinging an ax through legislation that helps level the playing field for marginalized people. I can’t do anything about the rolling back ...

Clint Eastwood has an explanation for Yordan Alvarez’s hot streak
Once Clint Eastwood turned into his character from “Gran Torino” I haven’t paid as much attention to the Hollywood legend’s movies. So forgive me, I just saw “Trouble with the Curve,” and aside from more evidence that Justin Timberlake isn’t an actor, I walked away pleasantly surprised. It was a pre...

'We've moved past kneeling' — now we're on to rap music at the Super Bowl
Jay-Z delivered on his promise. Just not the important one....

Nothing compares to Prince (and the Purple Rain) at Super Bowl XLI
Few performances during the intermission of a sporting event have come close to feeling like a truly artistic display, but one stands out above them all. Fourteen years ago today, Prince delivered the most iconic Super Bowl halftime show we have ever seen. On Feb. 4, 2007, at Hard Rock Stadium in Mi...

The most scandalous things to happen at the Super Bowl
The NFL wants you to watch the game on the field, but sometimes the most memorable things about the Super Bowl are incidental to the game. The media fanfare, halftime show, and colorful cast of hangers-on make for endless possibilities for moments the NFL would rather we forget....

Report: Justin Timberlake To Perform With Prince Hologram At Super Bowl Halftime Show [UPDATE]
Justin Timberlake will share the Super Bowl halftime stage with a hologram of Prince, according to TMZ. This is so stupid. Better idea: watch the actual Prince’s Super Bowl halftime show, right now.

Tonight's 40th anniversary celebration of Saturday Night Live on NBC opened with a musical tribute to the variety show's most memorable moments, starring former cast member Jimmy Fallon and oft-host Justin Timberlake—who briefly brought back "Dick In A Box."

Former FCC Chairman: I Wasn't <em>That</em> Outraged At Janet Jackson's Boob
Remember that boob? It's one of the most famous boobs ever. Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" was why the few subsequent Super Bowl halftime shows were safe, old, boobless acts like Paul McCartney and Bruce Springsteen. And it wasn't even on TV for a whole second!...

Jimmy Fallon And Justin Timberlake Do A Bunch Of End Zone Dances
They call this bit "The Evolution of End Zone Dancing," but once they get past the "Dirty Bird" it's really just Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake dicking around for a few minutes. We're OK with that, but only because they do a dance called "Earthquake Waiter." That one is funny, for some reason....

Justin Timberlake Opened The Ryder Cup By Reading A Shitty Poem About Golf
Justin Timberlake is serving as a Team USA "Ambassador" for this year's Ryder Cup at Medinah, a job title apparently created especially for the pop singer, actor and golf lover. Timberlake's appearance at today's opening ceremony was preceded by an introduction by Olympian Michael Phelps and accom...

Paint Your Corners. Clint Eastwood's Baseball Movie, <em>Trouble With The Curve</em>, Reviewed.
1. Pretty much everything about Trouble With the Curve is a crock, but I couldn't help but like it anyway. It has a hackneyed, painfully overstructured screenplay; its motivations for its characters are stock at best and embarrassingly obvious at worst; and it knows so little about the game of baseb...

Justin Timberlake At The All-Star Game: Drunk, Sarcastic, Drunk-Sarcastic, Or Just Obnoxious?
Justin Timberlake has redeemable qualities, doesn't he? He can sing and dance, he is a good SNL host, and he reportedly even has feelings. All this is more than we can say about Joe Buck. So no matter your opinion of the former boy band front-teen, he deserves some credit for agreeing to a live-br...

Bringing SexyBack To Golf
Justin Timberlake — former frontman for *NSYNC, international pop superstar, 6-handicap on the links — is shopping his first book. It's about golf, and it's reportedly a memoir about the 28-year-old's memorable rounds. Well, no one's done that before. [NYO]...
