It’s time for the Super Bowl! The biggest sporting event in America kicks off today, at 6:30 PM EST, with a face-off between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. The game is a rematch of the Super Bowl 57, when the Chiefs defeated the Eagles with a 38-35 scoreline. If the Chiefs win, it would mark the first time a team has won the Super Bowl three years in a row. If the Eagles win, it would mark their second Super Bowl ever, with their first win in 2017.
And while a lot of people may love the stats and the sport itself, a large group of viewers like to tune in to the Super Bowl Halftime Show, one of the most storied stages for performers of all sorts. Over the years, performers like Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Jackson, Beyonce, and more have taken the stage.
