Tomorrow is the day when the Super Bowl half-time act for next year is announced, and Beyoncé is rumoured to be the artist to perform it!

Beyonce To Play Super Bowl 2013 Half-Time Show?

 

The 'Love On Top' star is expected to be confirmed when the official announcement is made on Wednesday.

 

Beyonce will perform at the Super Bowl half-time show in 2013, according to reports.

 

An official announcement about next year's half-time show performer is due to be made tomorrow, but a source close to the event told Associated Press that the 'Crazy In Love' singer was already confirmed for the American football extravaganza.

 

The 2013 Super Bowl will take place at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans on 3rd February.

 

Beyonce sang the American nation anthem at the Super Bowl XXXVIII in 2004 in her hometown of Houston.

 

If confirmed, she will join an illustrious line-up of acts who have performed at the coveted half-time show, including Madonna, The Rolling Stones and Prince.

 

The Super Bowl is regularly one of the most-watched events on American television, attracting over 100 million TV viewers.

 

In August, it was reported that Beyonce had spent thousands on security for her studio in New York to ensure no material is leaked from recording sessions for her new album.

 

The 'Love On Top' star has been holed up in the studio with Kanye West and husband Jay-Z's producer Hit-Boy working on the new material.

 

I've not seen many of the shows, but Madonna's this year was quite good... It'd be a great boost for her album if it's presumably released around that time as well :D

Tribe Inc. will design the set (Madonna's set from last year and Beyoncé's Billboard "Run the World (Girls)" performance).
Biggest performance of her career! I'm so excited :) Guessing there'll be new material by then, so looking forward to that too.

A Destiny's Child reunion medley is seeming very likely at the moment - how many songs do the half-time acts usually perform/how long is the performance?

I'm not sure how long it was last year, but there have been stories saying the setlist has 'leaked' and she's due to start with "Crazy In Love" and Destiny's Child will appear and sing "Bills Bills Bills", "Survivor" and "Nuclear". Not sure how reliable it is, but that would be good! Looking forward to it either way.

Yeah, that's what I've seen. The report said that that was only part of the setlist though, I imagine she's due to perform a new solo song as well.

Well Madonna's last year lasted 13 minutes and she did Vogue, Music, Give Me All Your Lovin' and Like A Prayer, but she had interludes of Sexy & I Know It with LMFAO, Open Your Heart and Express Yourself, so she managed to cover quite a few songs in that time, so hopefully Beyonce will do that too. I can imagine her doing Run The World, Crazy In Love, Single Ladies and a Destiny's Child mash up at least.

I'm hoping and guessing that she'll do "Irreplaceable" too - it's always a great one for her to interact with the crowd.

I suppose so, but I think if she only has 13 minutes, I would quite like it to be a 13 minute party, with all uptempo, and 'Crazy & Love', 'Run The World' and 'Single Ladies' offer that. I am also hoping if they do a DC mash up that 'Lose My Breath' and 'Bootylicious' are covered in it too.

I can't believe no-one has commented on it in here. I was jumping up and down for the entire thing and have decided if I ever saw Beyonce, I would probably become mentally unstable and just scream in strangers faces for weeks afterwards. Serious LOL at Kelly and Michelle cutting the power off on their way out of the building, so mad that Queen Bee turned their mics down so low, but it was still utterly fabulous of them to appear. Best Half Time Show ever.

SHE f***ING KILLED IT.

 

Bitches bow. Give some respect when it is due. She made me enjoy the super bowl. I knew she was gonna win.

A seriously amazing performance! I was worried that she was going to perform too many songs from 4 and not enough of her earlier stuff, but there was a nice mix. Kelly and Michelle looking confused as to how they appeared was hilarious, but their contribution was incredible. "Single Ladies" by the three of the them was amazing, and Beyoncé dancing with her mirrored image was possibly the highlight. The only thing I could have asked for was a new song premièred, but even without I am more than satisfied.

Bey's been criticised by PETA over her outfit, which (apparently?) incorporated python and iguana skin. Fair enough, I don't endorse that, but then again, I wasn't watching her outfit.

Who doesn't get criticised by PETA, tbh?
