I guess we will just have to agree to disagree.
How many songs did she sing? Was it two or three? And I don't think she sang her Grammy Hit "I'm Like a Bird."

Good, I hate that song.
She sang maneater or whatever which ruined the whole performance/

Yeah, i thought she sucked too. I think she's great normally!
She was going more for the "Look at me, i'm a superstar" thing than the down to earth Nelly she's well known for.

my girlfriend and i both remarked during her songs, that fella that was filling the role of timbaland was actually really good; anyone know who he was?

Not my cup of tea, but I understand that the halftiem show isn't targeted at my age category and is looking to draw in a younger audience in order to garner some interest in the CFL froma demographic that is important for the future. Sorry if this has been posted, as the thread holds little interest for me, I skipped to the last page.

I agree with the above. She's not my bag, but I would sooner see someone modern than the Poppy Family or some has-been from Canada's past.

She played three songs, and I thought it sounded good in the stadium...

Good to finally see somebody else who felt she was good.
The three songs she performed were:
1. Forca
2. Promiscuous, with Canadian rapper Saukrates
3. Maneater

I think HER performance was pretty good! The sound blew...yes...but blame that on the production crew. The staging set up was not the greatest for viewing. The dancers, I thought were pretty horrendous (on stage and on the turf). They were making mistakes...not very professional.
Overall an average performance but I was expecting better....not all were under the control of the artist...Nelly and I don't think she should be blamed for it.

I'm going to blame Furtado, bb_21, I mean she totally re-jigged the lyrics and changed the song for the GC, I wanted to see the original that was the hit of the summer.

Congratulations to Nelly Furtado for winning five JUNO awards last night.

She does that Vulcan salute with an accent, though.
