What are the Best Super Bowl Halftime Performances?


In my opinion Prince did the best Super Bowl Halftime performance ever. Who else can perform like THAT in the pouring rain?! Here are the songs which Prince performed “We Will Rock You,” “Let’s Go Crazy,” “1999,” "Baby I’m a Star," "Proud Mary," "All Along the Watchtower," "Best of You," "Purple Rain.” He truly showed what a musical genius can do! Check out what my other top 9 performances of the Super Bowl halftime are below.


My Top 10 Best Super Bowl Halftime Performances:

1. Prince
2. Michael Jackson
3. U2
4. Diana Ross
5. The Rolling Stones
6. Bruce Springsteen
7. Janet Jackson
8. Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
9. No Doubt, Sting, Shania Twain
10. Aerosmith

What's your top 10 and where do you think the Black Eyed Peas will be placed?

Who do you think is going to win the XLV Super Bowl? The Green Bay Pakers or the Pittsburgh Steelers? I'm leaning towards the Green Bay Pakers.

2007 Kennedy Center Honors Diana Ross!


Diana Ross has received America's Kennedy Centre Honours, along with actor Steve Martin, director Martin Scorsese, Beach Boy Brian Wilson and pianist Leon Fleisher.

Ciara was on stage singing and dancing to ex-Supreme Ross' hit single Upside Down, following tributes from Smokey Robinson, actor Terrence Howard, Jordin Sparks of American Idol fame and Vanessa Williams. Yolanda Adams sang Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand) with a 125-member choir, bringing tears to Ross' eye.

Here's a video of Ciara's performance, I think she did a great job and looked amazing!
