I think one of the coolest recent halftime shows was Super Bowl XXXV where Aerosmith performed with NSYNC, Britney Spears, Nelly, and Mary J. Blige. I don't necessarily consider myself a fan of these artists individually, but seeing the artists from various different genres come together for a collaboration (a very entertaining one, at that) was really cool.

8 years later, who might be able to recreate something like that? I would say bring Aerosmith back, and this time have them perform with a group of some of today's hot performers: Jonas Brothers, Pink, Kanye West, Chris Brown, Rihanna is an example of a group that might work for this. There are all kinds of artists that could work well with this, but either way I think they definitely need to repeat that concept of a various music genres coming together.

Here's video of the halftime show I referenced:
