The showdown between the two elite quarterbacks is certainly going to be a game for the ages. But fans are also excited for another feature of the event – the halftime show.

This year, the NFL is bringing in pop sensation The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) to perform the halftime show. The RnB superstar has been on a roll throughout this year.

His hit single ‘Blinding Lights’ was the biggest song of 2020, spending the entire year on the Billboard Hot 100 Top-10. The Weeknd will be performing some of his biggest hits during the halftime show of the big game.

The Weeknd’s success over the past year has been credited to his album ‘After Hours’. The album was critically acclaimed and was awarded tons of accolades last year.
