Johnny Knoxville, Jackass & Eric Andre To Headline 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show
In a shocking departure from the usual musical acts, the NFL has announced today that Johnny Knoxville and his Jackass crew will headline the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show.
Super Bowl LVII will take place on Sunday, February 12, 2023, at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Don’t you think it’s time we get rid of these damn Roman Numerals? No one under the age of 2000 gives a crap about Roman numerals and certainly no one knows what LVII converts to. Super Bowl Fifty-Seven or Super Bowl 2023 sounds so much better. Or even better we can give it names like boxing matches such as, “Thriller in Manilla” “Brawl in Montreal” “Rumble in The Jungle”. You get the idea. There could be a contest to name it. Anyway, we digress.
Jackass
Jackass, if you don’t know, was a TV show that featured a cast of Jackasses carrying out stunts and pranks on each other or the general public. The show originally aired on MTV for three seasons from 2000-2002. The show has had many spin-offs and feature films since then as well. Jackass Forever is currently in theaters.
In addition to Jackass, Eric Andre will also appear. He is a comedian and the star of The Eric Andre show. The show features pranks, shock humor, sketches, celebrity interviews and general insanity. In his 2021 movie, “Bad Trip”, Andre pretended to be raped by a Bear in the Zoo as horrified onlookers watched and screamed for help. “That is the kind of stuff you can expect to see at the Super Bowl” said Andre.
Johnny Knoxville told Madhouse News, “This is going to be our final show. It will be the final appearance of Jackass anywhere, forever. Our swan song if you will, so we have to make it memorable. Of course there will be explosions, wild animals biting body parts, death defying stunts and total mayhem. But stay tuned for the most insane exciting sick twisted perverted stuff you ever saw in your life.”
