We know, we know…the dust has just barely settled after Lady Gaga‘s gravity-defying, drone-filled spectacle during the Super Bowl 51 halftime show last night (Feb. 5) — but that doesn’t mean we can’t start looking ahead to the future. Only 364-ish days to go until the next one!
Mother Monster, Beyoncé (twice!), Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, Coldplay and Madonna all dominated the stadium in recent years, but there’s plenty of room for more pop superstars to tear up the turf.
Who would you like to see dominating the halftime show in 2018: would it be perfect timing for the return of Taylor Swift? Is it about time for that RiRi reign? Does Britney Spears need to bring her Piece Of Me spectacle to the Super Bowl? Or is it Adam Lambert and Queen‘s time to shine after touring the world for years together?
Place your vote — or enter your own! — below. We’ll reveal the winning act right here on February 15.

I have a different question....
IF the NFL hired Queen + Adam Lambert for the 2018 SuperBowl, and they wanted to add one or two artists, who else do you think the NFL should put on the bill?
Here's my dream QAL halftime. We can afford to hire anyone in the world, and no one [except Bob Dylan] will probably turn us down. So I am inviting Pink, Usher, Pentatonix, Nile Rogers, a huge mass choir and many singers and marching bands to make the show BIG. We don't need a lot of dancers but I want many, many singers and musicians on the field. And we need people on the field to be the audience. People who know what to do at a Queen concert -- a briefing/training video and session will be held.
I can picture the show now -- lots of smoke, lights, lasers and music. And who could resist that music?
Stadium rock + a couple other big hits setlist -- Note: Absolute no Freddie on the screen. He will be there in the music, but this is a time to rock the stadium and 120 million people.
The SB Halftime Show is usually around 13 minutes long but I am giving them about 14:30 minutes for this amazing show. It would take 60 minutes for Queen to play all their big hits, so I think we need to be edited versions. They are good at that. I included times.
0:30 We Will Rock You - {QAL plus some badass southern college marching bands. They can stay around.}
1:20 Another One Bites the Dust - {Nile Rogers joins for this one song -- cause it's Chic's bassline.}
0:20 Killer Queen - just enough to be recognized as a bridge to....
2:00 Somebody to Love {Let's put a huge mass choir on the field -- hundreds of voices}
0:20 Don't Stop Me Now
0:50 Drum feature + Amazing Laser Show {And add in the amazing drumlines from the southern college marching bands}
1:30 Under Pressure + a special vocalist to duet with Adam, Usher
1:30 Crazy Little Thing Called Love Adam on lead vocals with Pink
0:50 I Want It All
2:20 Bohemian Rhapsody - only 2:20 of the 5:57 original song - with some kind of massive laser effect for the rock break - Adam, Usher, Pink on vocals and Pentatonix and the choirs to do the layered voices.
1:30 Radio Ga Ga - The old Queen music video on the screens, everyone on the field doing the handclap. In perfect rows and perfect unison. That's why we needed that training session.
1:00 We Will Rock You - Vocals by everyone.
2:00 We Are the Champions - Vocals by everyone, everyone in the stadium and crowd on the field with lights.
I don't care what anyone else wears -- but Adam must be dressed in fabulous style and in black.
