'80s Rock & Hip-Hop Legends to Field Their Hits at Bodog.com Lingerie Bowl on Feb. 5

WWW.LINGERIEBOWL.COM

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Feb. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- The L.A. Memorial Coliseum may not sell it at concessions, but there will surely be some delicious "Cherry Pie" on the field during this year's Bodog.com Lingerie Bowl as '80s rock Icon Jani Lane the Original Singer / Song writer Warrant belts out his signature song, joined by those from the biggest collaboration of '80s hip-hop artists including Biz Markie, Whodini, Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh, Chubb Rock and Rob Base.

Before the "bling" era that refocused rap on Benjamins and BMWs, drugs and thugs, the 1980s nurtured a generation of young artists that defined old- school rap with a sense of humor and musical adventurism. From the "clown prince of rap" Biz Markie to the funk/freak fun of Whodini, from "the first human beat box in the rap world" Doug E. Fresh to the lyrical innovation of Chubb Rock, these nascent artists resonated a feeling of optimism sorely missing from much of today's hardcore rap. Then there's Jani Lane, the Original Singer / Song writer for Multi Platinum recording artist Warrant, "one of the most popular pop-metal bands of the late '80s" (according to All Music Guide), whose multi-platinum album Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich yielded the singles "Down Boys," "Sometimes She Cries" and "Heaven," followed by the even more popular Cherry Pie with its Top Ten hits "Cherry Pie" and "I Saw Red."

"We are thrilled to assemble a once-in-a-lifetime performance by some of the greatest hip-hop artists of the '80s and one of the era's greatest rock bands," stated Lingerie Bowl creator and executive producer Mitch Mortaza, president of Horizon Productions. "This musical lineup offers something for everyone and will bring great energy in accompanying the fashion show that takes place just before our players hit the field for the main event."

The Bodog.com Lingerie Bowl airs Super Bowl Sunday, February 5, from 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. EST/PST, offering a 90-minute sports and entertainment extravaganza live on Pay-Per-View, for $19.95 (check with your local cable or satellite providers for availability). The highly anticipated halftime special -- pitting two-time Lingerie Bowl champions Los Angeles Temptation against two-time Eastern regional champion New York Euphoria -- will feature bombshell Jenny McCarthy, supermodel Cindy Margolis, 1985 Chicago Bear greats William "The Refrigerator" Perry and Willie Gault, MTV personality Trishelle Cannatella, "American Idol's" Ryan Starr, model/actress Tamie Sheffield and Fox football analyst Mike Goldberg. Additional celebrities and entertainment components will be announced in the final week. For more information, visit www.LingerieBowl.com.
