Wow, I feel old, don't know who the heck this guy is or what songs he even sings, I guess, life goes on....

One of those people whose name I recognize but don't know any of their music.

Feels famous enough for the event. Not my music, but I can appreciate that others will enjoy it.
My wife is amazing!

From Darren Cameron...

* Darren Cameron announced that MGK will headline the 112th Grey Cup Halftime Show.

* Canadian band Our Lady Peace will perform at the SiriusXM Grey Cup Kickoff Show, and Catie St.  Germain will sing the national anthem.

MGK...maybe better known as the husband of Kourtney kardashian.  I don't have a clue about any of his music.

I think Blink 182 might have been bet then MGK.

Ah yes, the guy who cheated on Megan Fox.

We should do a poll on who is worse, MGK or Logan Paul.

Me too!! I have no idea who this guy is - but if you listen to my 4 daughters anyone that is not Willie Nelson is unknown to me.

Maybe they should have flipped the pre-game and halftime talent...

Not sure someone named after a weapon is appropriate for the CFL, nor will his music be attractive to the Winnipeg crowd that should make up a large part of the attendance.

Is this pick better or worse than the NFL Bad Bunny selection? 
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.

Agreed. Our Lady Peace for half time show would have been much more appropriate and better selection. The league seems to have gotten away from having Canadian talent/acts perform at half time, and that's a shame, as its a Canadian event.

I agree with you.

I've been tuned out from popular culture since before the turn of the century so I realize they're not targeting my demographic, but I really don't see who they think is going to tune in specifically to watch this show that would also hang around and watch a CFL football game. 

Again, it's the same mindset from league officials, let's bring in a current performer to attract viewers that don't and won't ever consume our product and ignore what current fans might enjoy because they've bought their tickets or are already watching the game .
