Super Bowl 2012: 3 Acts I'd Rather See Than Madonna at Halftime

I usually talk through the Super Bowl halftime show. That will certainly be the case this year when Madonna, the "Material Girl," provides the entertainment for the intermission of the country's biggest sporting event.

I guess it's supposed to give the casual football fan, or non-fan, a reason to tune in—much like when Janet Jackson was the chosen act in 2004.

At least Janet was still hot when she took the stage. Madonna is about 80....okay, she's 53, but you get my point.

Even Janet had to have a "wardrobe malfunction" to make her performance memorable. I demand to talk to the people in charge of booking the halftime talent. I have a list that I would like considered.

Here are three acts I would much rather see at halftime.

Run-DMC

Hip-hop legends at halftime, when has that ever been done? Tell me Rev Run couldn't get the party going on a collapsible stage at Lucas Oil Stadium.

Just think of the teenage demographic that would be attracted to the performance when Run brings his son Diggy Simmons on stage.

"Copy, Copy, Paste"

"

That would be bananas and one of the most memorable performances in history. C'mon, Nelly's been part of the performance twice, the Super Bowl owes hip-hop for that alone.

Bob Dylan

Yes, Dylan. If you don't know who that is, then that's Robert Allen Zimmerman to you. He is one of the greatest songwriters of our, or any other, time.

Many of his hits are a bit slow paced, like "Make You Feel My Love," recently covered by Adele. So, why Bob? Because at this point, much of what Bob says is not distinguishable.

So, if you're like me, and tend to tune out the whole halftime show anyway, Dylan's rhythmic chatter will just blend in the background. However, if you manage to pick up a word here and there, boy are you in for some sweet lyrics.

Kim Kardashian

I know, let me guess, you hate her. Apparently you're not alone. The video below has 11,427 dislikes at the time of this was posted (with only 4744 likes), yet it has over 4.7 million views.

Hmmm...sounds like tons of viewers for the halftime show to me—even if they are disgusted as they watch.

Kim could possibly have an ex-boyfriend in one of the locker rooms—or both, you never know. Come on, jam with Kimmy.
