Who’s performing at the Super Bowl 2024 halftime show? Here’s a full list of performers
Usher is headlining the Super Bowl 58 halftime show in Las Vegas on Feb. 11 — but he’s not the only performer football fans will get to see singing as part of festivities surrounding the 2024 big game.
Here’s who will be performing on Super Bowl Sunday, as the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers face off.
Who is performing in the Super Bowl halftime show for 2024?
Usher’s performance at the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show was first announced in September.
“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before,” Usher said at the time.
In an interview on CBS “Sunday Morning,” he said it’s a moment he’s dreamed of for most of his professional life.
“You know, everybody says they want to win a Grammy, or they want to win an Oscar, or a Tony, or an Emmy. A Super Bowl is something that everybody wants to play,” he said. “And here it is. It happened.”

The eight-time Grammy winner has been a hot ticket in Las Vegas for the past year with a residency that surpassed all expectations, and he says the greats who’ve come before him are always on his mind.
“I mean the history of African Americans who had to perform here and couldn’t go through the actual casinos… now, to be here, the residency, it’s like, man. What a whirlwind,” he said.
In an interview with “CBS Mornings” co-host Gayle King, Usher shared a piece of advice he got from JAY-Z, the Super Bowl’s live music entertainment strategist.
“He left it to me to, you know, make sure that I didn’t miss the culture. That’s the one thing that he said. ‘You know, we’re doing this for the culture,'” Usher said. “‘I want you to play the ones that we — that we love, that we know you for. Give ’em the moments that they, you know, look forward to seeing,'” like, ‘Go for the culture.’ And I’m like, ‘All right, I got you.'”
Shaheem Sanchez will also perform an American Sign Language rendition of the halftime performance. The NFL has not yet said if any other artists will join Usher on stage.
Usher previously appeared at the Super Bowl as a guest during the Black Eyed Peas’ halftime show in 2011.
Who is singing the national anthem at the 2024 Super Bowl?
Country music icon and Grammy Award winner Reba McEntire will sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl. While this is McEntire’s first-ever Super Bowl performance, she told “CBS Mornings” that she’s been singing the national anthem for decades, so she said she feels comfortable getting ready.
“You just warm up like you do a concert and sing it about five or six times, and get in there, and do it,” McEntire said.
McEntire isn’t the only one singing before the game kicks off. Rapper Post Malone will perform “America the Beautiful” and singer Andra Day will take the stage for “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” which is often referred to as the Black national anthem, as part of the pregame performances.
“Peace & Blessings!!! Performing the Anthem at the SuperBowl yall! Grateful! Thank You God,” Day said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
There will also be American Sign Language performances for each song. Actor Daniel Durant, who started in the film “CODA,” 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.”
Tiësto named first in-game DJ for Super Bowl
In late January, the NFL announced that Tiësto would be the “first in-game DJ” for the Super Bowl.
“I can’t wait to party with you all !!” Tiësto wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The Grammy Award-winning DJ will play a set as players warm up ahead of the game, according to the NFL. He’ll also play during featured breaks within the game. Portions of his performance will be featured on the Super Bowl LVIII broadcast on CBS.

A food company known for popular grocery store condiments has recalled a package of tortilla strips that may be contaminated with wheat, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Friday. The product is meant to be gluten-free.
Sugar Foods, a manufacturing and distribution corporation focused mainly on various toppings, artificial sweeteners and snacks, issued the recall for the “Santa Fe Style” version of tortilla strips sold by the brand Fresh Gourmet.
“People who have a wheat allergy or severe sensitivity to wheat run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the product,” said Sugar Foods in an announcement posted by the FDA.
Packages of these tortilla strips with an expiration date as late as June 20, 2025, could contain undeclared wheat, meaning the allergen is not listed as an ingredient on the label. The Fresh Gourmet product is marketed as gluten-free.
Sugar Foods said a customer informed the company on Nov. 19 that packages of the tortilla strips actually contained crispy onions, another Fresh Gourmet product normally sold in a similar container. The brand’s crispy onion product does contain wheat, and that allergen is noted on the label.
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
No illnesses tied to the packaging mistake have been reported, according to the announcement from Sugar Foods. However, the company is still recalling the tortilla strips as a precaution. The contamination issue may have affected products distributed between Sept. 30 and Nov. 11 in 22 states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Washington.
Sugar Foods has advised anyone with questions about the recall to contact the company’s consumer care department by email or phone.
CBS News reached out to Sugar Foods for more information but did not receive an immediate reply.
This is the latest in a series of food product recalls affected because of contamination issues, although the others involved harmful bacteria. Some recent, high-profile incidents include an E. coli outbreak from organic carrots that killed at least one person in California, and a listeria outbreak that left an infant dead in California and nine people hospitalized across four different states, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The E. coli outbreak is linked to multiple different food brands while the listeria outbreak stemmed from a line of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products sold by Yu-Shang Foods.
