Miranda Lambert is the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Game Halftime Performer!!!

Well, this just made my Sunday.

It was announced today that one of my all-time favorites Miranda Lambert will be headlining the Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Day Halftime Show!

Every Thanksgiving for the past 30 years, The Dallas Cowboys have played a game on Thanksgiving Day, and the halftime show has been a big deal every year, and coincides with the Salvation Army’s “Red Kettle Kickoff”.

The past few years, performers have included the likes of Dolly Parton, Post Malone, and Lainey Wilson.

This year, it’s Miranda Lambert.

Here’s the announcement from the DCC on instagram:

Oh, HELL YES.

I love Miranda AND the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

I don’t care about the actual Dallas Cowboys, but for some reason I am mildly obsessed with the DCC, and I’m not even a little ashamed.

Catch the Game and performance Thanksgiving Day on FOX.

 

1994 Superbowl Halftime Show

I remember this like it was almost yesterday.

1994 Superbowl…

Cowboys beat the Bills… you know… back when the Cowboys won stuff.

I was at my parent’s friends’ house in Bolivar, TN. I was 11 years old, and the halftime show was Clint Black, Travis Tritt, Tanya Tucker, and The Judds.

What a time to be alive.

Behold, one of the greatest Super Bowl Half-Time Shows of all time:

THIS is what we need more of.

The past few half-time shows have been Rap/Hip-Hop, and no disrespect to that, but when was the last time we had a Country show?

Oh right, 1994.

Which makes zero sense, as Country Music is as big as it ever was.

At the very least, a Post Malone Half-Time show with all of his collaborators?

Come on, NFL.

Let’s make this happen.

Lainey Wilson Cowboys Half-Time Show Performance!

Yesterday, as per Thanksgiving tradition, the Dallas Cowboys had their annual Thanksgiving Day game- which they actually won against The Giants- and every year, they have a full-on halftime show.

Last year it was the iconic Dolly Parton, who took to the stage in a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader uniform.

Mind you, she’s 77, and still rocked it:

Ok, so back to yesterday’s performance…

Lainey Wilson was the esteemed halftime show performer, and she did a fantastic job. Sadly, she wasn’t rocking the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader uniform, but she looked and sounded great, and was obviously singing live, which is a bonus.

The NFL blocks people from sharing their Youtube videos (rude), but here’s what I found on social media:

And Lainey even brought out Jelly Roll as a surprise guest!

Also, have I mentioned before how much I love the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders?

I care zero about the team, but the cheerleaders are badass. I have seen every single episode of “Making the Team” and I’m not even a little ashamed.

In all, I thought it was a great performance, and Lainey represented Country Music well, as always!
