NFL announced late Sunday -- after rumors swirled for weeks -- that the pop star will headline the Pepsi Super Bowl halftime show on Feb. 1 at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona. It will air on NBC.
The Grammy-nominated star's upcoming performance is the fourth consecutive halftime show to display the NFL's push to include younger acts on its large stage
Will you be watching to see Katy at Halftime??
After some speculation as to which musical artist will rock the stage for the 2015 Super Bowl, it looks like the NFL has chosen Katy Perry to take on next year's halftime show, according to Billboard. Katy Perry will perform at this year's Super Bowl halftime show, sources have confirmed with Billboard. The Minnesota Vikings suffered a huge loss but Peterson would be reinstated for this Sunday’s upcoming game despite the arrest and child abuse chargers he incurred after brutally beating his 4-year-old son with a switch (tree branch).
Naturally, this had folks in an uproar, including Minnesota Governor Mark Dayton, who released the statement:
It is an awful situation. Yes, Mr. Peterson is entitled to due process and should be ‘innocent until proven guilty.’ However, he is a public figure, and his actions, as described, are a public embarrassment to the Vikings organization and the State of Minnesota.
Whipping a child to the extent of visible wounds, as has been alleged, should not be tolerated in our state. Therefore, I believe the team should suspend Mr. Peterson, until the accusations of child abuse have been resolved by the criminal justice system.
Money definitely talks. After Radisson hotel, one of the teams biggest sponsors, immediately pulled out, and Anheuser-Busch expressed their concerns, the NFL reversed their decision and Peterson was placed on the exempt/commissioner’s permission list — meaning he is suspended indefinitely from all team activities.
Please dont cry for him, he is on a paid leave until his legal situation is sorted out. That means he will still make almost $700,000 a week and get paid over $11 million this season.
So how about that, dam I need just half of what he makes a day.
Yes I know wishful thinking and dreaming.
You should all know Riri speaks her mines especially when she is pissed at something or someone. In this case she is pissed at CBS, and she told them really how she felt.

It took a few days, but Rihanna is finally lashing out about CBS' decision to yank her musical opening from "Thursday Night Football" last week and air it this week instead and let's just say she's not happy.
With the Ray Rice scandal still fresh, and the Ravens set to play the Steelers, CBS opted not to run a taped musical segment featuring Rihanna seeing as she was the victim of a high-profile domestic violence incident.
But with the segment now set to air this week, Rihanna took to Twiiter to blast CBS, writing, "CBS you pulled my song last week, now you wanna slide it back in this Thursday? NO, F*** you! Y'all are sad for penalizing me for this."
She followed that up by writing, "The audacity ..."
Lol ....I don't blame here ...how Rude Lol
After a couple weeks of viewing from the sidelines, the veteran journalist addressed her critics (seemingly with an uninterested shoulder shrug) during an interview with Philly.com. She told the site that she does her own hair and makeup and is often too harried with, um yeah, reporting to worry too much about how she looks. "You're out there trying to catch players, get your reports turned around quickly, and I may or may not have time to put on lip gloss or powder my face," Oliver said, citing "tunnel vision" for potential beauty lapses. Oliver also touched on the sexism present in broadcast news: "A guy can wear the same tie every other week, and it's not even an issue. But if a woman has a strand of hair out of place, people go crazy." Touché, Pam. Touché. It is in football, as it is in life.
Oliver states instead of rampantly hating on her bangs and highlights, viewers should support her by a) paying closer attention to how knowledgable and generally on-point she is and b) demanding that FOX Sports provide her with some hair and makeup next football season! Because no TV personality should have to do it all alone.
My take:
I agree with her that Fox can include hair and make into her contract but looking good all the time comes with the job Ms Oliver. Ladies who work in offices, airlines, banks etc hair and make up is on point because they want to ensure there general appearance is always Flawless so save the excuses!!
