Asides from the actual game and hilarious commercial ads, the Super Bowl halftime show generates almost as much excitement from fans as watching the Steelers take on the Packers. The Black Eyed Peas reveal that they are pumped to take Dallas by storm this afternoon to kick off the second half of the 2011 football showdown.
“We're known for doing outlandish things and we're going to make this a big spectacle," Will.i.am explained of the group’s halftime show plans via the Huffington Post.

“This isn't about winning people over. But even if people don't like us, I want them to say 'That s**t was crazy!,” the singer said, “That was the best 13-minutes I've seen! And that guy Will.i.am is awesome as s**t. Damn!'"
