The NFL has officially announced the 2016 halftime performer and it is none other than world-wide successful group, Coldplay. Which teams do you hope make it to the big game?
“I’m really, really nervous”. Missy Elliot and Lenny Kravitz performed as special guests. What better act to rock a stadium full of football fans with monster riffs than the biggest American metal band of all time?
Mars performed the halftime show in 2013.
Coldplay has never performed at a Super Bowl before, but the band was previously in consideration.
“I’d rather watch a gif of Justin Timberlake exposing Janet Jackson’s breast on repeat for 30 mins than watch Coldplay”, another offered.
While Chris and Gwyneth were together, they were close friends with Beyonce and Jay-Z – and the Single Ladies singer has continued to remain a pal, even working with him on his new album.
The last British band to play at halftime was The Who in 2010.
Broadcast live on Annie Mac’s show on BBC Radio 1, the intimate gig featured songs including Viva La Vida, A Sky Full Of Stars and Fix You.
