Super Bowl LVIII, scheduled for February 11, 2024, will showcase an electrifying halftime show, with the acclaimed hip-hop and R&B artist Usher as the headline performer.
The performance, a collaborative production effort between Jesse Collins, Jay-Z, and Roc Nation, adds a high-profile layer to the anticipated clash between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers.
Taking centre stage, Usher will be joined by Alicia Keys as a special guest, marking the first confirmed appearance for the halftime spectacle. Their collaboration on the hit song “My Boo” hints at a memorable performance.
TMZ has also hinted at the potential involvement of pop superstar Justin Bieber alongside Usher and Alicia Keys, though confirmation from Bieber’s camp remains pending.
Reflecting on past Super Bowl halftime shows, the NFL has consistently showcased global music icons. The 2020 Super Bowl LIV set a precedent with Latin music giants Shakira, Jennifer López, Bad Bunny, and J Balvin.
Canadian artist The Weeknd delivered a memorable show in Tampa Bay for Super Bowl LV the following year. Super Bowl LVI saw hip-hop legends Dr. Dre, Eminem, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar pay tribute to West Coast rap.
Last year, Rihanna dramatically returned to the stage at Super Bowl LVII, performing while pregnant and setting high expectations for Usher’s upcoming halftime show.
