Usher to perform at Super Bowl LVIII halftime show approximately two months after the 45-year-old artist concluded his 100-show “My Way” residency in Las Vegas.
It remains to be seen if any other notable names will join Usher on stage – the Super Bowl halftime show is famous for featuring multiple performers. When the Black Eyed Peas headlined the Super Bowl XLV halftime show in 2011, Usher participated in the performance.
However, Rhianna went against that norm last year, with a relatively low-key performance by Super Bowl standards that didn't feature any other performers. Despite that, Rihanna's performance was the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show of all time, according to Nielsen.
Usher, an eight-time Grammy Award winner, is scheduled to release a new LP, “Coming Home,” on the same day as the Super Bowl (February 11). It will be the fifth Super Bowl halftime show overseen by Roc Nation after Jay-Z signed a deal with the NFL in 2019.
