2026 Super Bowl LX singers: Bad Bunny headlines halftime show, Charlie Puth to perform national anthem
Bad Bunny, a three-time Grammy Award winner, is the most-streamed artist in the world

Whether it's the Broncos, Patriots, Rams, Seahawks or any other NFL contender, one thing is for sure -- the roster of singers on Super Bowl Sunday are all stars in their own right. In addition to the announcement of Bad Bunny being named the featured halftime performer earlier this season, we know that Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile and Coco Jones have been added to the list of singers for the big game next February.
The Bad Bunny announcement followed months of rumors and predictions, and was made in a subtle way back at the end of September. Headlining the Super Bowl halftime show is one of the top singing gigs of the year, and this was how the 31-year-old singer made the announcement on social media.

The Puerto Rican singer is the most-streamed artist in the world. Bad Bunny has 10 Grammy nominations, with three wins. His three Grammy wins are for Best Latin Pop or Urban Album for YHLQMDLG, Best Musica Urbana Album for El Último Tour Del Mundo and Un Verano Sin Ti.
Some of his other awards include the American Music Award for Favorite Latin Artist, the BET Award for Single of the Year for his hit song "I Like It" with Cardi B and J Balvin and Billboard Top Latin.
Bad Bunny's top songs are "Vete," "Titi Me Pregunto," "Que Pasaria" and "BAILE INoLIDABLE."
Usually the special guests are announced closer to the championship game. One early guess for a special guest is Cardi B, who is also connected to the NFL because she recently gave birth to boy, the son of Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs.
Rapper Kendrick Lamar, who brought out multiple special guests including SZA and Serena Williams, was last year's headliner. Some other iconic halftime performers include Prince, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Paul McCartney, U2 and Bruce Springsteen, just to name a few. The halftime show become a cultural moment for the masses as it is typically the most-watched performance of the year.
But the day's festivities begin long before halftime. Multiple artists will perform ahead of the game, including Grammy-nominated singer Charlie Puth, 11x Grammy-winning artist Brandi Carlile and Grammy-winning R&B artist Coco Jones.
"Charlie, Brandi, and Coco are generational talents, and we are honored to have them -- alongside our extraordinary deaf performers -- on Super Bowl LX's world stage," said Desiree Perez, CEO of Roc Nation. "This moment embodies the very best of culture, live performance, and our country, perfectly kicking off game day."
Here's a look at who will perform each pregame song:
"The Star-Spangled Banner"
Charlie Puth and renowned Deaf music artist Fred Beam will perform the national anthem ahead of the big game. Puth is a multi-award winning and multi-platinum singer, songwriter and producer. His hits include "See You Again," "Attention" and "We Don't Talk Anymore."
"America the Beautiful"
Brandi Carlile and Deaf music performer Julian Ortiz will perform "America the Beautiful." Carlile has an impressive resume that includes an Oscar nomination, two Emmy wins and a book that reached No. 1 on The New York Times' bestsellers list.
