Jay-Z could take the Super Bowl halftime stage as its headliner in February 2027, with a guest lineup built around artists who’ve been part of his career. Rob Shuter reports that anonymous sources say he’s planning to perform with Beyoncé, Rihanna, Alicia Keys, Usher and Nas.
Jay-Z already helps oversee the NFL’s halftime entertainment. Shuter’s sources claim he wants to make his own performance the biggest halftime spectacle in Super Bowl history, with his wife, Beyoncé, central to the plans.
“Beyoncé is the crown jewel,” a source told Shuter.
Taylor Swift wasn’t invited, according to an insider cited in the report. “Jay-Z wants to celebrate his career with the artists who have been part of his musical journey. Taylor isn’t one of them!” the insider claimed.
