Super Bowl LI took place on February 5 where singer-songwriter Lady Gaga performed during the Pepsi Zero Sugar Super Bowl Halftime Show, which turned out that "The Simpsons" have done it in 2012. The popular animated show creators have proved once again that they are time-travellers or psychics as they have already imagined how spectacular the show would be.

"The Simpsons" is known to have predicted a few important and notable events in its episodes such as the discovery of Higgs Boson, the faulty voting machines during the 2008 US elections and Donald Trump's presidential victory. In the animated show's season 23 episode ‘Lisa Goes Gaga', Lisa is seen being suspended on wires in the air while descending to the stage sporting a fireworks-shooting bra, thigh-high blue boots and a metallic outfit.

Lady Gaga in her performance, although didn't wear a fireworks-shooting bra, was sporting the same thigh-high boots and metallic outfit. In "The Simpsons" episode then shows Lisa being slowed down for a grand piano performance just like what Lady Gaga did in her Super Bowl halftime performance.

According to a report, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady also had a little predictive moment when he appeared in an advertisement for Shields Healthcare where he flaunted his Super Bowl rings, which includes his record-breaking fifth ring that he had not yet acquired when the ad was shot. It's pretty spooky but the similarities of these events are kind of amazing.

As for "The Simpsons" prediction on Lady Gaga's Super Bowl performance, one site believes that the animated series was ‘gently mocking' the Million Reasons singer's apparent striking and sometimes weird stunts during her concerts. The episode ‘Lisa Goes Gaga' was that Lisa did not perform at the Super Bowl and the show was only spoofing a previous event and not trying to foresee a future event.

An example of this is when Lady Gaga ziplined into a concert in Good Morning America and she is being shown in a number of outfits that are similar to the ones she had worn. Despite these, many fans still believe that "The Simpsons" predictions on important events are real and spooky too.
