“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list.

This marks Usher’s second Super Bowl halftime show appearance after he performed alongside the Black Eyed Peas when the group headlined the show in 2011. The eight-time Grammy winner is in the midst of his My Way The Las Vegas Residency.
Usher follows Rihanna, who headlined last year’s Super Bowl halftime show with an explosive 12-song set on platforms hanging from the ceiling of State Farm Stadium in Arizona.
Super Bowl LVIII will air on Feb. 11, 2024.
