Skip Bayless Defends Lil Wayne for Super Bowl

Skip Bayless recently expressed his belief that Lil Wayne should have been chosen as the halftime performer for the 2025 Super Bowl in New Orleans, rather than Kendrick Lamar, who was announced as the headliner back in September. Bayless's tweet sparked a debate, with several celebrities and fans supporting Wayne's case, citing his connection to the city. Despite his disappointment, Wayne has publicly wished Lamar well and acknowledged their mutual respect for each other's work. Bayless's comments come amid ongoing controversy surrounding him, including a lawsuit alleging sexual misconduct, which he has not publicly addressed. Many doubt that the NFL will change their lineup, as Lamar has already been confirmed as the performer. The situation underscores the ongoing tension and discussions around artist representation in high-profile events like the Super Bowl.
