Speculation over surprise guests is at a fever pitch. One name is already locked in: longtime collaborator SZA, which is of no surprise since the two announced they'd be going on tour together. This is Kendrick Lamar though so there will be more guests.

Elsewhere around the world, the UK 's coverage is 100% free on ITV1 and through its on-demand platform, ITVX. In Australia, you'll also be able to watch the Halftime Show (and the game as a whole) for free on 7Plus. In Ireland, it'll be on Virgin Media One and VM Play, while in Mexico you can tune into Azteca 7.

In 2022, Lamar was a supporting performer during the Super Bowl 56 halftime show. The “legends of hip hop” lineup also featured Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, 50 Cent and Anderson .Paak. However, three years later, Lamar will headline the show with SZA.
