Image: Courtesy ESPN.Bruno Mars and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are a tough act to follow, but if Katy Perry's outrageous antics on ESPN's College GameDay last week are anything to go by, her just-announced Super Bowl Halftime Show will certainly be entertaining. Especially if she continues to flirt with players and make cock jokes. FCC, considered yourself warned.
Though the NFL has yet to issue a comment, sources confirm that the "Roar" singer will perform at Super Bowl XLIX. Perry had been shortlisted along with Coldplay and Rihanna over the summer, though RiRi was reportedly later scrapped because of her domestic abuse background amidst the Ray Rice scandal. (Insert eye roll.)

The NFL had also been floating a "pay-for-play" scheme that would see musical acts paying big bucks for the privilege of playing the Super Bowl. Last week Perry told College GameDay that she wasn't the "kind of girl who would pay to play the Super Bowl." Total #Girlboss move.
Sounds like it'll be a solid show. Now we just need to find a big, strong man who can explain how this whole football thing works, tee hee.
