Katy Perry is all set to play the Super Bowl halftime show, but she won’t be alone — she’ll have a special guest. Can you guess who it is? Hint: he loves scarves and is overhyped. No, I’m not talking about Steven Tyler. The answer lies here, from Forbes:
Following in the tradition of having super stars join the artist selected for Super Bowl halftime entertainment, Katy Perry announced at halftime of the AFC Divisional Playoff game featuring the Baltimore Ravens at New England Patriots today that Lenny Kravitz will join her as she headlines the Pepsi Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show on NBC at University of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona on Sunday, February 1.
I am totally down with Ms. Perry being the Super Bowl halftime performer, like I’m down with it 100% (as long as she doesn’t bring this douche) but I gotta say, I’m not as psyched about Lenny Kravitz joining her. I think Mr. Kravitz, is, to put it plainly, lame as hell. I think his time is long over and I don’t get why anyone would consider him a big enough act to play at the Super Bowl, even as a guest.
But what do you guys think? Are you gonna go his way? (Sorry, couldn’t resist!)
I’d rather see him do the halftime show and her be a special guest. He has talent she doesn’t.
Lennie Kravits is awesome!! He’ll be doing Katie Perry a favor by performing with her!
I just reread your remark about Lenny Kravitz and I don’t know how old you are Catherine but seriously just because someone is “older” doesn’t mean “their time is long over”! He was one of the biggest rock icons of that era and being a huge rock fan myself I am really looking forward to hearing his music instead of that crappy fake auto-tone-we-can-make-everyone-sound-good shit we’re hearing now that is suppose to be music! Ok I’m off my rant now!
I agree with @crab and @brooklyn – Lenny should be the headliner. But, alas, as per usual with auto-tuned pop music, it seems genuine talent does not get the recognition it should. The man is a legendary genius! (Try digging a little deeper on Let Love Rule, 5 and Mama Said albums.)
I’m going to sound really ignorant when I say I loved him as Cinna in Hunger Games
