Super Bowl 2024: NFL Reveals Performers Lineup

Usher will not be the only big music star performing at Super Bowl LVIIII. The NFL announced that Reba McEntire will sing the national anthem, Post Malone will perform “America the Beautiful,” and Andra Day will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

“I’m going to be singing for not only the people who are going to be performing and playing on the field that day, but it’s for everybody who has worked so hard to ensure our freedom and try to have as much peace on earth as we can,” McEntire said in an interview with PEOPLE. “It’s not about me. I’m just the conduit and the water hose who gets to sing the song.”  

The pregame entertainment and the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show will also feature premiere American Sign Language (ASL) performances. Coda actor Daniel Durant will perform the national anthem in ASL, actress, model and dancer Anjel Piñero will sign “America the Beautiful;” and Shaheem Sanchez, actor and choreographer, will sign “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” Sanchez will also perform the ASL rendition of the Super Bowl Halftime Show. 

McEntire is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Hollywood Bowl. She has won more than 50 awards in her career, including honors from the  ACM Awards, American Music Awards, People’s Choice Awards, CMA Awards Grammy Awards and GMA Awards. 

Malone has earned 10 Grammy nominations in his career. He is known for his No. 1 hits, “Rockstar,” “Psycho,” “Sunflower,” and “Circles,” Malone has released five studio albums and all of them have reached the the top four of the charts. 

Day is known for her Grammy-nominated song “Rise Up” which compiled over one billion streams. She is also known for making a huge impact in her feature-acting debut The United States vs. Billie Holiday. Her performance in the movie led to her being nominated for an Academy Award and winning a Golden Globe Award. 

This announcement comes a few months after the NFL revealed that Usher will headline the Super Bowl halftime show. Earlier this week the R&B superstar appeared on Good Morning America to talk about his upcoming performance. “I try to get back as far as I can,” he explained, per ABC News. “Go back to the first album if I could. But, you know, it’s literally 13 minutes.I think I just start it by making certain that — my kids approved, I got my portion of it from, for the, you know, the 30 and up, I got them. “But for my young’uns, Cinco and Naviyd, I’m taking notes. They’ve been like taking conference calls with my entire team, giving notes.”
