Beyonce? Madonna? Bruno Mars? KEYBOARD CAT.

The Puppy Bowl news just keeps on coming. First there was word that we would all get to make our own Puppy Bowl fantasy teams (big). Now Entertainment Weekly is reporting that the big game’s (nay; BIGGEST game’s) halftime show would be headlined by the one, the only, KEYBOARD CAT. (Not the real keyboard cat, mind you. That cat is long dead. But A Keyboard Cat.)

LOOK AT THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS HALFTIME SHOW:

Keyboard Cat will perform - appropriately enough - Bruno Mars’ “Locked Out of Heaven.” (He even wears a Mars-ian hat.) During the feline’s performance, 30 kittens will perform a domino topple and one little daredevil will make a grand entrance by parachuting onto the field.

YOU’RE ON NOTICE, NFL. STEP YOUR HALFTIME SHOW GAME UP. PLAY THE NFL OFF, KEYBOARD CAT.
