McCartney to headline Super Bowl festivities
|
“There’s nothing bigger than being asked to perform at the Super Bowl,” McCartney said in a statement. “We’re looking forward to rocking the millions at home and in the stadium.”
The show will be televised by Fox from Jacksonville on Feb. 6, the NFL said. It will be McCartney’s second Super Bowl appearance. He sang in the pre-game show in New Orleans in 2002.
Last Feb. 1 at Houston’s Reliant Stadium, Justin Timberlake ripped off part of Janet Jackson’s outfit while they were singing a duet, exposing her right breast to a TV audience of some 90 million people. Jackson blamed the incident on a “wardrobe malfunction.”
