Lady Gaga performs during the Super Bowl 51 halftime show in Houston.
Lady Gaga thought she’d drop in on Super Bowl LI Sunday night. Literally.
The retractable roof at NRG Stadium opened up so the singer could make a Spider-Man-like appearance, leaping from the roof to the stage below.
Before making the impressive jump, she performed a brief patriotic medley, singing bits of « God Bless America » and « This Land Is Your Land, » and quoting the Pledge of Allegiance.
After landing, Gaga performed a variety of her hits, including « Born This Way » and « Bad Romance. » She encouraged her Houston audience to roar at their home-state « Poker Face » opening line, « I wanna hold ’em like they do in Texas, please. »
Gaga was backed not just by dancers and singers, but by 300 lit-up drones that shone like stars in the night sky.
