With the NFL more than a month behind last year in announcing the halftime entertainment for the Feb. 7 Super Bowl at Land Shark Stadium, rumors are rampant that the league is considering one of two solutions.

The first, according to a source close to the host committee, is that the Miami Dolphins’ new co-owners — salsero Marc Anthony, hip-hopper Jennifer Lopez and Latin star Gloria Estefan — would combine forces for one of the world’s most-watched halftime shows. It’s unclear whether Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas, who agreed to purchase a small share of the team but hasn’t paid for it yet, would participate.

“Gloria appeared in six Super Bowls,” said Estefan publicist, David Naranjo. “She enjoys helping showcase the city. But I haven’t heard anything about her doing it again.”

The Who's Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend

The other avenue, according to a report in Sports Illustrated’s online version, it that the British band The Who may be thisclose from receiving the nod. While the band’s music is going through a renewal of sorts with the soundtracks of TV series like CSI: Miami, The Who aren’t touring and have no new CD to sell. The band’s frontman, Roger Daltrey, is in the states on the tail end of a solo tour. He appears at the Seminole Hard Rock and Casino in Hollywood on Nov. 29.

“The committee feels that it’s strange that the NFL hasn’t made an announcement yet,” the source said. “Last year, they did it (it was Bruce Springsteen) during a Sunday night game in September. “

At the NFL headquarters in New York, a spokeswoman said there’s no timeline to announce halftime shows.

“When we have something to announce, we will,” she said.

Standup comedian Robin Williams, who got his start in the late 1970s as Mork from Ork on Mork & Mindy, appeared Wednesday at the Seminole Hard Rock Resort in Hollywood.

The great Patti LaBelle, a.k.a. Lady Marmalade, gave the Seminole Hard Rock Resort’s pink hotel rooms a try before her show at the Hollywood resort Tuesday. Labelle — believe it or not, she’s 65 — is helping publicize the fact that, through October, 25 percent of the $169-to-$389-a-day rental of special rooms with pink sheets, pink bathrobes, pink towels and pink roses goes to breast cancer research.

Here we go again!

Two years after Palm Beach County lost its chance to make an impact, and serious cash, on the 2007 Super Bowl in South Florida, the county’s participation in next February’s return of the big game already has hit a snag.

Gerry Baron, the county’s liaison with the organizers of the upcoming Super Bowl XLIV at Land Shark Stadium, resigned as Palm Beach County sports commish last week.

“Unfortunately, I’m going to have to give up that (the Super Bowl) position, too,” Baron said. “We were really putting the county on the map this time.”

Baron’s departure couldn’t come at a worse time!

Comic Kathy Griffin has made her career playing the outsider to the Hollywood A-list. Yet somehow, even as her fame grows and she appears to be ON the A-list, she’s still playing like she’s a D-lister. You figure it out.

Anyway, Griffin brought tales of her life among the stars to the Seminole Hard Rock on Wednesday night. More photos by Storms Media Group after the jump.

Usually the playground of the elderly on fixed income, the Seminole casino in Coconut Creek turned into a madhouse Saturday night, offering a strange orgy of colors, stage acts, dancing, skin and, of course, drinking.

We’re talking folks in strange costumes that barely covered them. There were acrobats, cage dancers, little people sporting green wigs — and more nudity than an HBO series. And then there was a beauty contest that quickly degenerated into something the area hadn’t seen since college Spring Break was banned.

Welcome to Jeff Beacher’s Madhouse, a traveling nightclub/circus act that started in Las Vegas and now has spilled over into the rest of the country. The Seminole tribe challenged showman Beacher to fill up the big entertainment tent at the stepchild of the tribe’s casinos. He did. More than 1,000 people showed up.

For Michele Sandberg’s pictures, see Page2Live’s new gallery below:

If you hang out in clubs and fancy bars, you probably ran into loud little people in green wigs over the past few days.

Who are these guys? The Beacher's Madhouse little people invaded Blue Martini in CityPlace last week

No worries. There’s no danger. They’re pushing a show scheduled for Saturday night at the Seminole Coconut Creek Casino, Beacher’s Madhouse.

Part- nightclub, part-circus, part-comedy, part-celeb watching, Jeff Beacher ’s show has been packing ‘em in at the Hard Rock Resort in Las Vegas for years. Then the former New York City furniture salesman took his frantic show on the road.

“I’m trying to convince the (Seminole) Tribe to have more of these shows in South Florida and they gave me one night in their toughest-to-fill property,” Beacher told Page2Live. “They figure if I can fill this place up, I can do anything. Those who come never saw anything like it.”

If you go, wear a costume!
