Proposed Super Bowl
Halftime Shows
February 2002
Every year we know that
though the game itself often does not live up to its hype, the Super Bowl halftime show
never
fails to exceed it.. Its designers, never shy, have even gone as far as perform
a re-creation of the
Battle of New Orleans. Sources have disclosed to HFH some
proposals currently being reviewed by the NFL for future Super Bowl halftime shows
that we may see in the coming years:
A
Tribute to Franz Kafka -- Featuring 'N Sync in giant cockroach costumes
singing their hit song "Bye Bye," followed by the Ohio State
marching band doing their interpretation of The Trial.
"Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Yay!" -- This is a multi-starred performance of the
old time hit "Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-Yay!" first performed as a sultry duet by
Michael Jackson and Britney Spears, followed by a show-stopper
by Cathy Lee Gifford, with a grand finale by the
Penn State Nittany Lions Drum and Bugle Corps.
God as Middle Manager -- With Drew Carey and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir,
additional music by Joan Osborn.
Second Best -- A tribute to all those teams who "came in
second" in past super bowls. Co-hosted by Jennifer Love Hewitt and Marilyn
Manson, with appearances by Demi Moore, Andrew McCarthy and Joan Osborn.
Biblical Doritos -- A humorous look at the story of creation, The Book of Job,
Noah and the Ark and other Bible faves, as depicted by America's favorite crunchy snack food. Featuring Jennifer Lopez
