Alessia Cara is the Grey Cup halftime performer. I don't know who that is.

It was supposed to be announced during halftime of today's game but Global News leaked it.

My 10 year old niece adores her.

Pretty underwhelming headliner if this is true. And of course somebody with minimal appeal to the demographic of fans who will be in attendance and watching the game on TV.

CFL appealing to that untapped market of age 10-12 girls that would even listen to the pablum..

Its like they're trolling established CFL fan demographics with this.

or trying to promote more 5 buck beer sales at halftime.

As in lets get something so insipid on stage it will chase people out of their seats.

So far what I'm getting is a prepackaged non controversial Amy Winehouse for kids. That's my musical take..

 

[Kyle McMahon]

Alessia Cara is fine as an artist. But half the people in the stadium will have never even heard of her. The CFL needs to stop pandering to fans they don't have.

That said, if beer at the Grey Cup is $5 all is forgiven!

She’s a good artist, just the wrong artist for a grey cup half time show

That's kind of sort of what I gather.

"People who like this artist also like":

Wham

Bubblegum

BC already getting their balls beat off in Hamilton. Hopefully June Jones doesn't steer this one off a cliff.

Alessia Cara can actually sing, so I don't mind that choice. She's not your typical pop/rap/R&B trash.

in fairness, she can sing, and in fairness i'm not surprised you like her, I've seen your GDT's

Screw this September weather. Get your 5 buck ice beer at the stadium..

This is the worst September EVER.

Not sure how this got a weather post but I'm random.

You shouldn't be surprised I like her because you've also seen my avatars.

my memory is missing today as I have a head cold. I'm trying to remember. It could be that the Blonde German track athlete is distracting my attention.

its like when I used to have Elin Nordegrin people had trouble focusing on my posts.

Thanks Del

Another fumble by Williams. Bombers not doing much but up by three and now have great field position. Little things like this that cost this team wins.

 

[Sanchez]

This team stinks again

 

[rboomercat90]

Esks playing like they’ve been drinking the five dollar beers too.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Reilly has been garbage lately

 

[JordanGalhanth]

Reilly has been garbage lately

Don't you DARE insult the best QB in the modern era. /sarcasm

 

[Cloned]

Maas can take his offense and shove it, honestly.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Without Reilly we wouldn’t be anywhere near a playoff spot. This team is straight trash and I hope they take a blowtorch to the front office and coaching staff.

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

What's the significance of this game? They need a win for playoffs?

 

[Kyle McMahon]

Absolutely f***ing insane that Jason Maas and whichever brainless f*** is running the special teams are still employed. Missing the playoffs in a Grey Cup year. This organization has sunk to depths not even thought possible by the most pessimistic of people.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Another fumble by Williams. Bombers not doing much but up by three and now have great field position. Little things like this that cost this team wins.

Williams is just an unreliable player. If this is your offensive weapon its not one you want with games on the line. If it isn't Gable throwing games its Williams.

What a putrid performance all round.

Feel sorry for anybody at the game. This team is hard to watch.

 

[Cloned]

I hope Maas and Sunderland get fired after tonight.
