So wait, you're going to try and run a second concert in competition with the super bowl halftime show, and still associate it with the super bowl/NFL?

The lawyers are going to eat them alive for the fees.

Is it just a big long pro Israel infomercial?

[–] lechekaflan@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Fucking dickheads still trying hard.

Nice work fun police, who ya gonna get? The old fart with the America song?

It's gonna be the Kid Rock and Hulk Hogan "it's not gay because we said 'no homo' circle jerk spectacular" featuring George Santos.

And you think magats are smart enough to remember that? They'll get a guy barely ressembling hogan and call it a day

Look, all they want is a muscular man with facial hair in shorts telling them how he's going to dominate them, pin them to the floor and just start pounding them. Otherwise, it's too gay.

You forgot ripping his shirt off.

Kid Rock and Ted Nugent would be my guess. But I mean, you could swing a dead cat and hit like six or seven country/western singers who hate dark-skinned and/or LGBTQ+ Americans in a given honky-tonk, so they'll have no shortage of talent. And, make no mistake, some of these people are talented... but if they just use that talent to try to further divide the poor people for the benefit of the wealthy, I don't think they are worthy of my attention.

Nope, blackjack and little kiddies. Got to keep them interested somehow...

Big week for the left they've claimed both gun rights and football all in one week.

Masterpiece!

[–] Geobloke@aussie.zone 2 points 16 hours ago

Presumably the players will all be wearing cargo shorts and new balances

So what's it going to be? Kid Rock singing about how Trump is God's chosen president while a group of "liberals" (ie: non conservatives) they captured off the streets get forced to pray to Jesus in the direction of Mar-a-Lago?

These fuckers remind me of the type of people who only let their kids watch "Christian" television.

It's not gay, it's brown. Or is Bad Bunny also gay? I have no idea, and I don't care who he loves. I'm tuning in for the music and the dancing. I'm not a fan, but I'm sure it'll be a good show.

[–] homes@piefed.world 29 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Although the jury is still out as to whether Bad Bunny is gay or not, he has announced that he is going to perform the halftime show wearing a dress, in solidarity with Puerto Rico‘s rich history of drag queens.

So, yeah. That.

[–] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Drag used to be a lot more common in the US.

[–] Hylactor@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Cue vt of Trump and Giuliani dressed as women.

Some Rocky Horror shadowcast group is hosting their own Halftime Show because Turning Point USA's own halftime show is too heterosexual

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Okay but which event is going to overload Grindr?

I'm pretty sure ICE is mostly pedophiles at this point. If Epstein was alive they would have hired him to run their (I wish the next part was a joke) for profit child prisons.

Caring about the super bowl halftime show is an inherently gay thing, they should know this.

Oh they can call it a sausage party, nothing less gay then sweaty, steaming, sausages.

Oh they should really have a lemon party, and make sure to tell everyone about it.
