From MSNBC News Services:
An appearance in a Super Bowl commercial would have been a major showcase for a disgraced pop star eager to make a comeback.
Some folks were predicting the coming of the Apocalypse after Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction in 2004. Imagine what hysteria would erupt if Britney flashes her vagina anytime during the Super Bowl festivities. The image conscious NFL doesn’t want anything to do with the pantyless bimbo; it doesn’t want to be responsible for setting off riots.
I love the NFL’s explanation for turning down the scandalous pop tart: “Besides, we already have Paris Hilton.” That’s like a network turning down Roseanne Barr to host a talk show because she’s too loud and obnoxious, with the explanation: Besides, we’re already negotiating with Rosie O’Donnell.
Britney Spears might be welcome at a gynecologists’ convention, but the NFL would be more comfortable with Charles Manson hanging out with L.L. Cool J and the gang.
