Why, you might ask? Because of Justin Timberlake and nine-sixteenths of a second. Diddy, Nelly, Kid Rock and Jessica Simpson were actually all part of this halftime series, but practically forgotten about by anyone and everyone who watched. Assisted by her legion of backup dancers, they broke into chorus of her 1989 anthem, “Rhythm Nation.” Like many halftime shows, surprise guests weren’t really surprising, as much as they were expected. After a quick costume change, Jackson reappeared from the stage in an all-black, leather-donned getup – much reminiscent of her looks during the late 80’s. The world knew to expect a show like no other by a performer like no other, and that’s exactly what they got.Īs Jackson cascaded onto the stage during her “All For You” opener, the show was nothing more than the Janet Jackson concert everyone had tuned in to see. Janet Jackson was selected as the headline performer for the Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show. Janet Jackson’s career had been the golden standard up until one very famous performance, with another very famous singer, during the most famous sporting event of the year.
