Fans of the sports celebration are also sharing their excitement for the halftime performance, which will be helmed by Usher, performing his hit songs. “I’ve gotta do it in 13 minutes, that makes it a bit difficult. It definitely has been a challenge to squeeze 30 years into 13 minutes,” he said to reporters ahead of the game.

Usher confirmed that there will be some special guests taking the stage, but viewers will only know until the performance starts. “I have definitely went through a lot of ideas of who I would have share this moment with me and I do feel like the people who are gonna share it deserve just as much recognition for what they do in their careers – whether we have collaborated together or rather they’ve had moments of their own,” he stated.

Among the special guests, many speculate about Beyoncé, while others think there will be musicians that have collaborated with him in the past, such as Alicia Keys, Lil Jon, Jeezy, Nicki Minaj or Justin Bieber, among others.
