Looks like the NFL is going to inject “sexy back” into the Super Bowl.
Us Weekly reported on Wednesday that multi-platinum pop/R&B artist, Justin Timberlake, is finalizing a deal to healdline the Super Bowl LII halftime show at the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.
The 10-time Grammy Award-winner is currently working on his fifth solo studio album, which could be released around the time of his slated Super Bowl performance on February 4. Timberlake would receive a massive boost in promoting his new album indeed should the deal with the NFL fall through.
This wouldn't be the first time that the 36-year-old entertainer would take center stage in the Super Bowl. Back in 2004, Timberlake joined Janet Jackson for her halftime performance and caused quite a controversy when he partially and intentionally disrobed Jackson's dress on live television.
The infamous “wardrobe malfunction” incident forced the Federal Communications Commission to implement a five-second delay for live TV broadcasts to avoid such obscene instances from occurring yet again.
Us Weekly also mentioned that rapper-turned-business mogul JAY Z is also involved in talks of performing with Timberlake at Super Bowl LII. However, the entertainment news site's insider stated that “as of right now, it will just be Justin — no surprise performers.”
