It’s no longer a “Perfect Illusion!” Mother Monster will headline the Super Bowl LI halftime show early next year.
Update (Sept 29): Lady Gaga is officially confirmed to perform Sunday, February 5, 2017, at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas for the Super Bowl LI halftime show! The announcement arrives a few weeks after the release of Gaga’s latest album, Joanne.
Watch the announcement video released by the NFL.

Original (Sept 13): “One of the main reasons for why the NFL is said to be hot on the singer was her performance of the National Anthem at the 2016 Super Bowl,” according to the report. Watch Lady Gaga’s rendition again below:
A couple months ago we learned the NFL was pursuing Adele, but she later revealed she turned the offer down due to stage fright.
Lady Gaga would be wise to take on the Super Bowl 2017 halftime show. She just released a new single, “Perfect Illusion,” which is a part of her next studio album. A Super Bowl performance would surely help boost album sales and, presumably, ticket sales for whatever tour she embarks on in support of said album.
Gaga will appear in the next season of American Horror Story which kicks off this week. She’s said that her upcoming studio album will be released “really soon,” but the exact date is still unknown to the public.
The 2016 Super Bowl halftime show featured Bruno Mars, Beyoncé, and Coldplay.
Do you think Gaga should take on the 2017 Super Bowl?
She seems like the perfect candidate for the job.
