These days, the Super Bowl halftime show it just as big as the game.
Music royalty have performed the iconic gig down the years and in 2024 it'll be R&B legend Usher's turn to headline.
A-list singers and musicians often join the headliner on stage for the performance and speculation has been rife about who Usher could enlist.
Some even thought it could be Taylor Swift.

Now, though, fans are convinced hip-hop stars Ludacris and Lil Jon will perform alongside Usher and certain rumours seem to confirm that theory.
"Ludacris and Lil Jon will definitely be with Usher at the Super Bowl," one particular online claims.
The trio collaborated on the 2004 hit 'Yeah!' and so it would make a lot of sense for Usher to bring the two artists out for a Super Bowl rendition of the song.
NFL fans have already speculated this could be the case and shared their predictions online.
