USHER has been announced as the headliner for the 2024 Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII halftime show.

Super Bowl LVIII is set to take place on February 11, 2024, at Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, per The Hollywood Reporter.

Usher called the opportunity an “honor of a lifetime” in a statement.

“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list,” the singer-songwriter said.

“I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before.”

He added: “Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I’ll see you real soon.”

It won’t be the first time Usher appeared in a Super Bowl halftime show.

At Super Bowl XLV in 2011, in which the Green Bay Packers took home the famed Vince Lombardi Trophy, Usher made a guest appearance alongside the Black Eyed Peas.

Seth Dudowsky, NFL’s head of music, noted that the league “couldn’t be more excited” to have Usher on board for Super Bowl LVIII.

“Usher is an icon whose music has left an indelible mark on the cultural landscape throughout his career, we couldn’t be more excited to have him headline this year’s Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show,” he told THR.

“We look forward to working with Usher, Roc Nation, and Apple Music to bring fans another Halftime Show for the history books.”

Vice President of Apple Music, Apple TV+, and Sports, Oliver Schusser, noted a similar sentiment.

“We are so proud of what we were able to accomplish together with the NFL and Roc Nation last year, and now, with the insanely talented Usher set to take the stage, we’re looking forward to another incredible Halftime Show from one of the world’s all-time greatest performers,” he said.
