don't you love watching these halftime shows on like the super bowl, or the all-star game......

Just recently, Kelly Clarkson did a one-song show on all-star saturday night for the NBA..... and in order to enhance her performance, there were about 100 people right up in front of the stage, going crazy. No....these aren't REAL fans.....they are paid to do this. This kind of distorts things....because while giving the appearance of rocking the house down, its nothing more than a setup. They should have to put something on the bottom saying...... "These are not real fans"

Yeah, I noticed the same thing at the Super Bowl when they dragged out some country western singer I'd never heard of. I mean the people around the stage were just rockin' out, and it wasn't like a real rockin' song or anything. It just looked ridiculous. I suppose the label pays for those people and we're supposed to think "gee, they really like her - I guess I better buy that album even though this sounds like pre-fab pablum."

people will do anything to make themselves look more popular and appealing to the audience...even if it means embarassing the fake fans at the star's expense.
