The biggest game of the year for American football, the Super Bowl, which booked Madonna to perform a 12-minute set during the halftime show this Sunday, February 5, is making room for special guests, adding to the anticipation for her mini-concert.
Nicki Minaj referred to her participation on the new single 'Give Me All Your Luvin'' via Twitter, saying 'Super Bowl rehearsals w/the Queen ;)' and adding, 'Epic, of course.'
Electro pop singer M.I.A. will join the singers as she did on Madonna's forthcoming album, MDNA. The dance duo LMFAO will also play on the stage with Madonna.
Other songs rumored to be on the singer's set list include 'Ray of Light,' 'Vogue,' 'Music,' and 'Holiday,' according to the New York Daily News, after a supposed leak on a Wikipedia entry, though her management has not confirmed the list.
These hits were also alluded to in the National Football League (NFL) magazine, which wrote, 'Though Madonna's set list was not officially announced at press time, fans might expect her to give all her luvvin', provide a ray of light and be in vogue with her music.'
The Los Angeles Times wrote that Madonna described the pressure of the performance as '12 minutes to put on the greatest show on Earth.' She joins other previous Super Bowl halftime acts including Prince, The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty and U2.
The football game at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, features the New York Giants and New England Patriots. The telecast was viewed by an estimated 106 million television in 2011 and is expected to repeat if not surpass this viewership.

I hated the idea of all these artists but I'm okay with it now. After all this is a Madonna performance and she never disappoints!
Love Madonna forever!

LMFAO will most likely join her on "Music". Liz Smith mentioned M had told her "Like A Prayer" was in a few weeks back after the set list leaked onto the internet. Was that just ploy to throw us off the scent or true? Hmmm? Cee Lo Green would be perfect on a duet for that song if he's still apart of the show.
