SPORTSbyBROOKS is reporting that the Black Eyed Peas will be the featured act at halftime of Super Bowl XLV at Cowboys Stadium.

The choice makes a lot of sense, actually. After Janet Jackson’s ‘wardrobe malfunction,’ the Super Bowl has gotten more conservative in recent years, tapping such acts as Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stones, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Bruce Springsteen and the Who. (Only Prince in 2007 would be described as somewhat ‘edgy.’) The Black Eyed Peas are more relevant, but they’re mainstream enough to entertain a wide variety of people.

Predicted Setlist: 1. Let’s Get It Started, 2. Where’s the Love, 3. Boom Boom Pow, 4. I Got a Feeling
