Gaga: NFL's worst mistake or most brilliant move ever?

The NFL knows not what it's done.

Well, maybe it does: it just tapped the antithesis of its fanbase to drive its grandest show of the year.

Super Bowl LI surely booked Lady Gaga for its halftime performance based on her reputation as a stage deity, whose taste for grandiose art direction — see theultra-vibrant pandemonium of her last concert tour — can fill a HDTV screen as well as any pop superstar churning in 2016.

The dance-jam queen will also attract droves of non-NFL viewers — the real windfall for football's pocketbook — who will endure some blitz talk (and advertisements) to see their muse Mother Monster on America's largest stage. She's a favorite in the young female demographic and huge in the LGBT community. Meanwhile professional football has seen exactly one openly gay player in 96 years; Michael Sam never even made a team's final roster.

THEY have to understand that the half time show is for those who dont watch the game.  This is the time when sports fanatics get up to pis$ and the rest of the household who doesnt care about the game get to have some actual entertainment and not pretend they are interested in watching a ball getting tossed around. 

This is a brillant move, NFL.  Gaga can show she CAN entertaintain both the gays, girls and guys! Maybe old rocker guys too.

I'm just worried she neglects the performance art for her current direction of trying to be relatable.... That would be disappointing. I need her to go ALL OUT.

Gaga has a great knack for knowing her audience, and tailoring her performance accordingly. She'll make it work.

Precisely. No one should be expecting "the monster ball" or "the artrave" for the super bowl. This will be entirely different.

So many people think Gaga is the same person as she was during TFM. She is going to be the most rock-n-roll artist they have had on there in years. Like Katy Perry did this **** 2 years ago....KATY PERRY

Why do people so quickly assume that her music is not for straight people at all?

It's still music and PEOPLE love music.
