Janet Jackson and Tom Brady

Tom Brady is undoubtedly one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the great game. In a 23-season long career, Brady won as many as 7 Super Bowl titles which is nothing short of astonishing.

While Tom generally stays away from controversies, the last year or so hasn’t been kind to him. Reports of things going awry between Tom and Gisele flooded news feeds when he un-retired to join the Buccaneers for the 2022 season.

Soon, the couple officially announced their split. After that, Brady’s massive investment in FTX went down the drain due to which, he was named in a $12 Billion lawsuit filed on behalf of American consumers.

While Tom was able to distant himself from controversies after that, his recent comments on Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction have landed him in quite a fix.

Tom Brady calls Janet Jackson’s Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction a ‘good thing’ for NFL

During a recent episode of his Sirius XM’s “Let’s Go” podcast, Brady commented on Janet Jackson’s unfortunate wardrobe malfunction during the 2006 Super Bowl. While the incident almost killed Janet’s career, Tom reckons that what transpired actually ended up giving more publicity to NFL Halftime Show.

It was just more publicity and more publicity for halftime shows. I think in the end, it was probably a good thing for the NFL because everyone got to talk about it,” Brady said.

Is any publicity bad publicity? That’s what they say, so who knows?” Tom added. As one can expect, his astonishing take ended up sparking a heated debate on Twitter. While a few people came out in his support stating that his comments are being taken out of context, many NFL fans blasted him for being downright insensitive.

Brady recently announced his retirement from the game and is expected to start his broadcasting stint in 2024 with FOX after taking an year’s break. Will his comments affect his broadcasting deal in any way?
