Twitter Is Exploding With Requests For Kanye West To Perform At Super Bowl 51

Aug 16, 2016

Kanye West fans are blowing up Twitter with hashtag #KanyeWestForSuperBowl51 in an effort to ensure the performer a spot for the Super Bowl 51 half time show.

Houston, United States - August 15, 2016 /PressCable/ —

People logging onto Twitter today are likely run across hashtag #KanyeWestForSuperBowl51 everywhere. In a confusing twist of facts, Adele announced that she had turned down the offer to perform at the Super Bowl, but the NFL and the half time sponsor Pepsi issued a joint statement saying that the show was never offered to her. Whatever the truth is, now that her name is off the table, Kanye fans have taken to social media in droves to make the case that he is the perfect star to do the show.

The superstar has never performed at a Super Bowl halftime show, and his fans think it’s time he did. They want him to perform in Houston at Super Bowl 51 in part because so few rappers have been given the chance aside from Pitbull, LMFAO, Missy Elliot, and the Black Eyed Peas. To help Kanye, his fans have started a petition at Change.org to help make it happen, and the Twitter hashtag is considered a de facto petition.

“Kanye West is one of the most popular artists in the world right now,” says a spokesman from Concert Bank, an online ticket seller that specializes in hard to get tickets for sold out shows. “And the fact that this petition is gaining steam means Kanye West tickets to his current tour will go even faster than they usually do.”

Kanye West tickets are on sale for his upcoming tour which begins August 25 in Indiana and extends until November 1 in Los Angeles, California. “If history is any prediction of the future, tickets aren’t going to last—especially with this new petition floating around social media.”

The hashtag currently trending on Twitter was created by TeamKanyeDaily, and has the potential to propel the star to even greater heights than now. “Don’t wait to get your Kanye West tickets if you’re a fan,” says the spokesman. “But if you can’t make the show, you might consider picking up Super Bowl 51 tickets now in case he performs because once it’s announced, they’ll be gone almost instantly.”
