Per US magazine.
I guess this pretty much confirms Timberlake will have an album out around spring 2018. He's been seen working working with Pharrell, Timbaland, and Max Martin, and the Super Bowl is a pretty good place to perform your new hit single and announce when your new huge album is coming out.

Only question is whether or not he'll rope Janet in for a surprise appearance.

 

[Abylim]

Man, he’s still relevant?

 

[torre_avenue]

Man, he’s still relevant?

...and we're off!

He literally had a hit single last year,
that was nominated for an Oscar.

 

[Darksol]

He's no Gaga.

 

[Chuckie]

Man, he’s still relevant?

Do we really need a post like this every single time?

 

[DuffDry]

Man, he’s still relevant?

Only if you've been paying attention.

 

[BoogieWoogie]

Surprised they're taking the chance after the Janet Jackson incident.

 

[Temp_User]

Waiting for them to announce an N'Sync reunion for the halftime show.

 

[overcast]

Man, he’s still relevant?

His shitty single last year was everywhere. Plus he's got some great songs from FutureSex and 20/20.

 

[Bounceounce]

Surprised they're taking the chance after the Janet Jackson incident.

Unless he apologizes for throwing Janet under the bus he shouldn't be up there.

 

[Lord Fagan]

This is their second option after getting turned down by Jay-Z, huh?

 

[TWrecks310]

Why is he allowed back but Janet Jackson isn't?

Spoiler

I know why

 

[torre_avenue]

This is their second option after getting turned down by Jay-Z, huh?

Well, even from the beginning, there were rumors of JT/Jay-Z co-headlining, because America needs a soothing face to balance out the sheer amount of urban Jay Z brings to the table.

 

[Conciliator]

it's easy to forget that Can't Stop The Feeling track is a real human song and not just like background music for commercials or viral videos of a fat person dancing being played on Ellen or whatever

 

[SKINNER!]

Will Janet Jackson make an appearance too?

 

[torre_avenue]

Will Janet Jackson make an appearance too?

I'd 100% guarantee Timberlake will try to get her for a surprise appearance.

But, whether or not she actually will is a different story altogether.

 

[vern]

Hopefully we get more titty. Dat wardrobe malfunction.

Timberlake: "Better have you nekkid! By the end of this song!"

*Janet Jackson begins to take a knee*

actual lol

 

[Skiptastic]

I'm okay with this.

 

[Diprosalic]

i just recently listened to bunch of his songs and was surprised how many fun pop songs he had. i'm fine with this.

get janet on there too.

 

[SuperOrez]

Not bad but when is Weird Al gonna do the SuperBowl?

 

[CDV13]

Not bad but when is Weird Al gonna do the SuperBowl?

Hopefully never. I can only pray.

Justin has a solid catalogue to choose from. Should be damn good. As long as Señorita is performed, that's all that matters.

 

[Ivan 3414]

I'd 100% guarantee Timberlake will try to get her for a surprise appearance.

Haha, absolutely not.

Justin got off scot-free for that incident while Janet's career was ruined. In the Twitter age it would be a supremely dumb move for him to re-conjure such images.

 

[whiskeysailor]

Nope. Delete this. Justice4Janet

 

[Cyframe]

I hope he's ready for the Janet headlines. He really did her dirty.

 

[MontyBrown]

Nobody can follow Gaga's and look good. She owned that show.

 

[richiek]

Man, he’s still relevant?

Ain't no lie baby, Bai, Bai, Bai.

 

[hoserx]

Not bad but when is Weird Al gonna do the SuperBowl?

That'd be the best superbowl halftime ever. I'd actually watch instead of doing something else during the show. He could do a few of his amazing polka-popsong-medleys. It'd be something for everyone. He's one of the true geniuses of our time.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Cool. I like Justin.

 

[Lulubop]

When's Drake?

 

[entremet]

Wow. Surprised he would be back after the Janet incident. Thought he would be blacklisted for life.

 

[ZeoVGM]

This would be great. He'll put on a damn show.

Man, he’s still relevant?

I refuse to believe anyone lives under this large of a rock.

Jesus, I feel like I struck a chord here.

Next time when someone I haven’t heard about in years gets a thread I’ll keep my opinion to myself!

 

[Skellig Gra]

He weaseled out of it and Janet got all the blame.

Jesus, I feel like I struck a chord here.

He had one of if not the biggest hit in 2016 so I would look in the mirror a little my man.

 

[TrumanBurbank]

Man, he’s still relevant?

Congrats. I've been triggered by this.

Trolls are the worst.

He had one of the biggest songs of 2016. Like, you would need to go out of your way to not hear "Can't Stop the Feeling."

 

[Abylim]

This would be great. He'll put on a damn show.

Not everyone lives in America. I haven’t heard shit about him here in Aus, not for a few years. (I don’t exactly have my ear to the ground when it comes to most pop stuff though)

Seriously, lesson learned. Didn’t mean to upset anyone or derail. Good for him, he’s still incredibly relevant apparently.

#7 song for 2016 in Aus.

Think about what you are saying. This is a thread about the Super Bowl. An American sporting event. Then you say hes not relevant in Australia? And honestly I don’t believe he isn’t popular in Australia.

Oh, I wasn’t saying he wasn’t popular here, just I doubt he’s as popular here. I mentioned that not everyone is in America for context.

So, I’ve apologised for my ignorance, attempted to provide context, what else can I do now? I even said he’s still relevant today. I’m sorry that my post caused so much strife here. I was and still am genuinely shocked he’s still making music and stuff.

It's fine, just learn your lesson for next time

 

[NandoGip]

hard pass

edit: actually, I rescind this statement. I'd prefer him over MANY MANY of the popular acts of today

Eh, there's no need to apologize. Person doesn't know who artist is, people who like artist tells person who he is and how big he is. Grass grows, rain falls, nature takes its course.

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

This made me realize I haven’t listened to the radio in 2+ years.

 

[HStallion]

One time I hope they just say fuck it and sign a metal band or something for the half time show. Then again I suppose Metallica is main stream and "friendly" enough they could get away with them if they did some other aging rockers.

 

[Greigor The Fellhand]

Justin timerblake should have janet jackson rip off a section of his T shirt showing his nipple.

Nah man, full on cock shot after she rips the crotch of his pants off.

 

[Dishwalla]

Yep, this. I don't support this decision, and wouldn't watch his halftime show.
