On February 5, Indianapolis will host Super Bowl XLVI — the 46th iteration of America's biggest game.

The newly minted Interscope singer has been on her grind lately, promoting her Golden Globe-winning directorial debut W.E., unleashing a super sexy fragrance line and gearing up for the release of her 12th studio album MDNA and a world tour.
With so much going on, can Madonna still quarterback a show as memorable as these 10 amazing Super Bowl halftime performances? More »

Wed Nov 23 2011 by Robbie Daw
When the pop history book is finally written about this era of music, upcoming SNL host Katy Perry will have at least one more achievement to look back on, following her record five Hot 100 chart-topping singles from Teenage Dream — she's now only fifth artist to land six Top 10 hits on the Hot 100 from one album in the chart's 53-year history. She's also the first to do so since Janet Jackson's 1993 LP janet. also produced six.

Janet Jackson, CBS Triumphant In Super Bowl Wardrobe Malfunction Appeals Case
Thu Nov 3 2011 by Robbie Daw
A federal appeals court upheld its ruling on Wednesday that the Federal Communications Commission wrongly fined Janet Jackson and CBS for a wardrobe malfunction during the 2004 Super Bowl broadcast, wherein Jackson's breast was briefly exposed during a halftime performance with Justin Timberlake. In case you forgot, this incident has led to some pretty tame Super Bowl performances in the ensuing years. (Perhaps Madonna will shake things up in 2012?)

It was a big day for double-J names with equally famous musician siblings on the UK's Paul O'Grady Show yesterday.

And while Janet didn't give fans a taste of her tour during her appearance, at least Joe Jonas was on hand to croon his paint-splattered single "See No More." Catch both below.
