What The Hell Was That Black Eyed Peas AFL Thing All About?

by Paul Cashmere on September 29, 2018

The AFL has once again dished up another Grand Final performance of Meat Loaf proportions with Black Eyed Peas causing Australia to ask the question… WHY?

The Black Eyed Peas performance was so underwhelming that will.i.am even checked his phone after the first song.

The saving grace for the AFL was Australian legend Jimmy Barnes honouring an Australian institution with Australian classics.

After Meat Loaf botched his AFL performance so badly in 2011 no-one thought the AFL in their wisdom could ever schedule another disaster.

Black Eyed Peas delivered on the disaster. The audience hated it, turning to Twitter to vent.
