Everything to know about the Super Bowl 2022 halftime show and National Anthem.
Can you feel it? Football’s biggest Sunday of the year is fast approaching. Super Bowl LVI, taking place on Feb.13,2022, promises to be one for the history books. Taking place at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, the Super Bowl will see two teams will vie for the coveted Vince Lombardi Trophy. But, this is much more than a football game. It’s an entertainment spectacle on par with a Hollywood production, and considering that the game is near Tinsel Town, Super Bowl LVI’s Halftime Show is going to be a star-studded affair. Yet, fans won’t have to wait until Halftime to see the stars come out. The 2022 Super Bowl is packed with talent, from the opening ceremonies to the commercials to the very end. It seems that L.A. is looking to top last year’s performance. Super Bowl LV had The Weeknd close out his After Hours era with a spectacular Halftime show that featured hundreds of doppelgangers, a mosh pit in a mirrored hallway, and lots and lots of fireworks. So, what’s on tap for 2022? Here’s what you need to know. Because Super Bowl LVI is taking place in L.A., it’s fitting that Southern Cali hip hop would have a presence for that year’s Super Bowl. The NFL seemingly took notes following the backlash of booking Maroon 5 to play Super Bowl LIII when the game took place in Atlanta. Yes, the group ultimately brought out Travis Scott and Big Boi as guests, but having a non-hip-hop headliner in Atlanta, one of the homes of hip-hop, rubbed people the wrong way. This time around, the NFL isn’t making that mistake twice. In September 2021, the league, along with Pepsi and Roc Nation, announced that Dr. Dre would lead an all-star cast of performers, including Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Eminem, and Kendrick Lamar.
