Andra Day is the latest artist plucked for
Super Bowl LVIII. As announced on
Instagram, she'll perform the Black national anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," before The Big Game.
Day shared her enthusiasm on social media, writing, "Peace & Blessings!!! Performing the Anthem at the SuperBowl yall! Grateful! Thank You God!"
Day joins fellow performers
Post Malone,
Reba McEntire and
Usher. McEntire will sing the national anthem and Post Malone will belt out "America The Beautiful" for a little pre-game entertainment, while Usher will tackle the
Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show.
Usher was announced as the halftime performer in September. It will mark his first time headlining the event, though he did make an appearance at the Super Bowl in 2011 when the
Black Eyed Peas played.
Super Bowl LVIII takes place at the
Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on 2/11. As far as what teams are actually playing in the Super Bowl, that has yet to be determined. We'll be too sloshed from the free drinks at the casino to care.
