You do realize that Winnipeg doesn't have a dome, therefore she's gonna look more like the Michelin Man than the woman you describe.
Now that I don't live in Quesnel do I need to change my handle??

I also think that it's a good move. As far as the whole "bird" thing, that song was years ago and I doubt that she will sing it at the GC.
Should be one of the better half time acts of late.

Remember GC 2000 halftime show?? That was PATHETIC!!! :thdn: :thdn: :thdn: :sleep:

That would be the Tragically Hip. They played two years ago. You see, Grasshopper, in a country of 30 million, the number of big name acts who can appeal to a wide audience is fairly limited. Bif Naked, for example, would go over about as well as Ashlee Simpson at the Orange Bowl two years ago. (She made me want to "scream" as well...)

^yes the hip are awesome, have their CD's etc, i'm aware of the shortage, and said I'd LIKE to see, its pretty impossible in canada tho..........................but the BEP plays and they're not Canadian so I don't know why an American band can't play?

I have to agree. The acoustics were so bad I couldn't hear a word they were saying.

A) She is good - top of the charts with two songs in NORTH AMERICA right now!
b) She is hot hot hot hot! She makes my "list".
c) She is from B.C.!!!
:whs:
I for one think it's superb that this famous Canadian celebrity will be performing at the Grey Cup. :beauty:

Now, some of you claim that you heard the song "I'm like a Bird" one too many times, but what do you expect from a song that hit the top 5 in many charts, and also won a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance?

A belated congratulations to Nelly Furtado for winning that Grammy Award, and a second congratulations for being selected to perform at the Grey Cup. :thup:

I'm sure she will also perform her other top hits, such as Promiscuous and Turn off the Light.

If the Lions are in the Grey Cup, halftime for me is generally for vomiting from nerves. (In fact, 2004 was the first time it didn't happen, to which I credit both Lloyd and a 24 hour in advance sense of impending doom).

If the Lions aren't there, I don't watch.

Does that qualify as TMI?
I can assure you that oh six will be a replay of that matchup, different result and yes you will barf at half time.

But it will be worth it no?

I get it almost every time the Lions lose. Sometimes later than others. In last years WDF, it happened right at kickoff.
Do be sure and text me during WDF, I would love the heads up either way. :wink:

An interview with Nelly Furtado about the fact that she is singing in the Grey Cup.

http://www.cfl.ca/index.php?module=news ... &nid=13017

It looks like she has never attended a BC Lions game and doesn't know much about the CFL either.
祝加拿大加式足球聯賽不列颠哥伦比亚卑詩雄獅隊今年贏格雷杯冠軍。此外祝溫哥華加人隊贏總統獎座·卡雲斯·甘保杯·史丹利盃。還每年祝溫哥華白頭浪隊贏美國足球大联盟杯。不要忘記每年祝溫哥華巨人贏西部冰球聯盟冠軍。
改建後的卑詩體育館於二十十一年九月三十日重新對外開放,首場體育活動為同日舉行的加拿大足球聯賽賽事,由主場的卑詩雄獅隊以三十三比二十四擊敗愛民頓愛斯基摩人隊。
祝你龍年行大運。
恭喜西雅图海鹰直到第四十八屆超級盃最終四十三比八大勝曾拿下兩次超級盃冠軍的丹佛野馬拿下隊史第一個超級盃冠軍。

I think Nelly Furtado put on a good halftime performance.

I thought it stunk, she did a horrible re-mix or her own classics and the sound blew.
