Hip-hop and R&B royalty will lead the Super Bowl LVI Halftime show. But how are they going to pack all of these superstars into less than 15 minutes? The NFL just announced, via social media, that the Pepsi Halftime show will feature Dr. Dre and his protegees Snoop Dogg, Eminem and Kendrick Lamar, along with frequent collaborator Mary J. Blige.
As they said in their tweet, "43 Grammys, 19 No. 1 Billboard albums and 5 legendary artists on the biggest stage in Los Angeles."
The Super Bowl will be in Los Angeles (home to Dre, Snoop and Lamar) for the first time in 30 years. It will take place at Sofi Stadium, home to both the Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers. The show will air on NBC on Feb. 13, 2022.
