Ideas for a Nickelodeon playoff broadcast from those that matter: Nickelodeon viewers

The NFL will air a playoff game on Nickelodeon next year geared towards a younger audience. We asked two experts what that might look like.

JoJo Siwa: Sideline Reporter Number One

Courtesy of my daughter Simone is the first choice for a sideline reporter, and it is a relatively easy one for her: JoJo Siwa. The actress, dancer and singer first became known to American families when she appeared on the reality show Dance Moms with her mother. JoJo parlayed that into a singing career, releasing songs such as “D.R.E.A.M.,” “Boomerang,” “Kid in a Candy Store” and “High-Topped Shoes” which, honestly, have been playing in my house almost endlessly for the past few years.

JoJo has also become the co-host of Lip Synch Battle Shorties, so hosting or serving as a sideline reporter would not be a huge stretch for her. Plus, her flair for fashion – complete with her trademark hair bows – would be a sight on NFL sidelines.
