The big question from the super bowl (1 Viewer)

How does Missy Elliot get 2-3 minutes of exposure during the halftime show?

 

[Clayton Gray]

I thought she was good.

She put in 2-3 minutes of exposure earlier...

Based on the thread name, I assumed this would be a poll regarding the blond on the airplane with the kid.

Oh, and yes is clearly the answer.

How she performed is irrelevant to how completely irrelevant she is right now. Might as well get Van Halen, Crüe and C Lauper. All 3 bigger than M Elliott.

And thus the question.... How did she get a 130 million person audience?

That was a truly bizarre set of circumstances.

All the songs were 10 years+ old

No one is clamoring for a performance from her

She doesn't really fit into the model of the post Janet Jackson "Safe" halftime show.

Completely baffling on every level.

I thought it was another Clydesdale commercial because of all the horse hair.

Seriously. Not enough. Should have cut out Lenny and just had Missy. Maybe add Fat man Scoop and the little dancing white girl.

I was excited about it. Loved her stuff when it came out, haven't seen or heard from her in years.

Katy Perry likes her. Elliot had vocals on one of Perry's songs.

 

[Ramsay Hunt Experience]

Considering that Iggy Azalea's entire schtick is "white chick does Missy Elliot impression" I'm not sure she's as irrelevant as people are claiming. Certainly no less relevant than Lenny Kravitz, who most tweens know as a bit player in the Hunger Games.

 

[Apple Jack]

Missy >>> perry >>>>>>>>> kravitz

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Not a felony, but definitely a misdemeanor.

 

[grateful zed]

worse call than carrols.

 

[comfortably numb]

Fair question in terms of recent relevance but she is one of the most talented people in the business.

 

[skol asylum]

I thought she added some cool energy to the mix. No more irrelevant than Lenny Kravitz.

This is the closest thing I've read to an explanation. The NFL wants to charge people to play this show and she ended up with three "half" songs.

I'm half expecting her to be dating the president of nbc or something.

With the automaitic bump in song sales Missy probably had to pay for Perry's mechanical lion.

Missy >>> perry >>>>>>>>> kravitz

Whole lotta wrong here.

 

[comfortably numb]

Wait, Missy actually sang?

I thought she was just allowing Katy to ride on top of her during the Roar song?

Too low?

Was wondering about that. Didn't the Chili Peppers get on last year because Bruno liked them? Do they ask the lead act, "who would you like to perform with?"
