Usher is the latest to headline a star-studded list of Super Bowl halftime shows
Super Bowl LVIII has its halftime performer.
Apple Music announced via Instagram on Sunday morning that Usher will perform at halftime for the 58th edition of the big game. It will be the second Super Bowl halftime show sponsored by the tech giant's music streaming service after Rihanna's performance earlier this year.
Super Bowl LVIII is set for Feb. 11, 2024 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. It will be the first time the new stadium hosts the sport's biggest game.
The Super Bowl halftime show is one of the biggest music performances in the country every year, with hundreds of millions of people watching around the globe. However, it hasn't always been that way.
