It’s official kids!
After months of speculation, the NFL & Pepsi have finally confirmed Justin Timberlake will be headlining the 2018 Super Bowl!
Details inside:
Sending fans into a frenzy, Timberlake took to Twitter moments ago to announce the news:
The Grammy-winner – whose Super Bowl history reads most notoriously of the infamous “nipple-gate” that temporarily derailed the career of pop icon Janet Jackson – was originally rumored to be co-headlining the gig with ‘Suit & Tie’ co-star Jay Z (read more on that by clicking here). Jay squashed those rumors after he, in an act of support for disenfranchised footballer Colin Kaepernick, expressed (in so many words) no desire to have dealings with the NFL.
Timberlake apparently doesn’t share the sentiment.
Pop star Justin Timberlake has been announced as the headlining act of the Super Bowl 52 Halftime Show, more than a decade after his controversial performance with Janet Jackson in 2004.
The show will mark Timberlake’s third time on the stage, having previously appeared in 2002 and 2004. This will give him the distinction of having the most appearances by an individual entertainer.

Congratulations are certainly due to Justin (we guess). A revered performer in his own regard, his wealth of hits should provide quite the entertaining set. The news – hardly unexpected – almost confirms fans can also expect a new album and tour from the hitmaker in the coming months as well.
Your thoughts?

I should be mad but the NFL BEEN cancelled anyway ?
I’m disgusted, but not surprised.
Booooooo!!!!!!
This is WRONG unless Janet performs too. Otherwise, he shouldn’t do it
What hits is he performing.. he has 4 as a solo and abundance in a group. So I guess nsync coming out. He is an alright performer. Not as exciting as the ones b4.. let’s see what happens. I’ll be watching the day after cuz he is not worth me watching most of the game, ordering pizzas, and gathering friends together.
He has more number ones as a solo artist than with NSYNC. Just saying.
I hope he brings Janet out. I mean it’s the least he could do since he f***** her bad when she gave him his time to shine. Fuckboy.
The meltdowns ?
Janet has moved on past this but I will say its a great way to get people to talking about her…without lifting a finger. #justice4janet…LOL
I’m not watching his DRY ASSSS
I’m excited to see what he does I’ve seen him on tour and I like him
bull****.
Colin kneels and can’t play no more…Justiniqua pulls THE TITTTY OF ALL TITTTIES out and he can play smdh lol
They can keep his ugly ass and his cat screeching voice ? I’ll pass.
He REAL ugly too! Go see that twitter video where he announces it with Jimmy Kimmel…what da hell happened to his wonky left eye? Chile I started rapping Ain’t 2 Proud 2 Beg lol…hunnie, he cracking like eggs too…and crack is wack *Whitney voice*
??
Flop performance. They shoukd have got a male performer with a lot of hits and heavy touring exoerirnce. Stevie Wonder comes to mind.
Stevie Wonder…at the 2018 super bowl?
I’m not into NFL especially since #Kaepernick still fighting the fight!!
He definitely won´t out do creative and hard working queens Madonna and Lady Gaga or super talented musician-performer-SINGER Bruno Mars. He won´t. He´s not been exciting since 2007. He can dance, but it is boring.
#JustforJanet
this is going to be the lowest rating for a Superbowl performance ….
