CBS adds secret performer for halftime show

A recent news from Associated Press led fans of the various artists recently spotted shopping in Houston (Madonna, Aerosmith, Jennifer Lopez and others) to believe and “hope” their favourite artist might be the “secret” performer for the Super Bowl half time show. Here’s the AP press release:

Houston – Janet Jackson, Sean “P. Diddy” Combs, Kid Rock and Nelly apparently weren’t enough for CBS’ 12 1/2-minute Super Bowl halftime show.

Another act is poised join the MTV-produced extravaganza. Who that is will remain a mystery until the program, producers said Thursday.

The production will require 350 local volunteers to haul and assemble 70 pieces of the stage, which spans 120 feet. Then about 2,500 youngsters from area schools will pour onto the field to create a festival concert atmosphere.

Combs said that as big a deal as the halftime show has become, the musicians are just a sideshow.

“This is all about the players,” he said. “We’re here to fill some time while they get ready for the second half.”
