There will be no cameo from Janet Jackson at half time during the Super Bowl. There will also NOT be a hologram of Prince performing with Justin Timberlake. Justin may have a nod to Minneapolis’s favorite musician, but nothing tacky. Drummer Sheila E., Prince’s longtime friend, reassured everyone today with this tweet:
Family, I spoke w/Justin 2nite and he shared heartfelt words of respect for Prince & the Purple fans. I look 4wrd 2 seeing what I’m sure is going 2 be a spectacular halftime show. There is no hologram. 🙏🏽💋 pic.twitter.com/mhVXBfBa1B
