Following an outcry from Janet Jackson fans the NFL deny she's been banned...

After news spread that Justin Timberlake had been invited to perform #JusticeForJanet began trending on Twitter, demanding an apology from Justin and the NFL and a special guest appearance slot for Janet Jackson.

Responding the backlash the NFL announced,
"There’s no ban. We are not going to comment on any speculation regarding potential guests. There may be no guests. Along with Pepsi, we’re excited to have Justin Timberlake. Like the elite NFL players who can run, catch, and block, Justin can do it all -- sing, dance, act and entertain. He’s the ultimate global superstar who we know will put on an entertaining and unifying show that will appeal to the massive worldwide audience."
