The Super Bowl has traditionally been the most popular TV event in the United States due to the unparalleled excitement that surrounds the event and the high level of excitement that goes past the on-field drama. The big game is a pivotal event in pop culture because of the pregame activities and festivities, in addition to the half-time show. This year will be no different.

We now understand that Rihanna will be singing at the Super Bowl LVII half-time show as the NFL revealed the remainder of the Super Bowl entertainers on Tuesday.

The NFL completed the roster of performers who will be on display in Arizona on January 24 by announcing that Chris Stapleton, Babyface, Tony Kotsur, Sheryl Lee Ralph and others would take part in the Super Bowl pregame celebrations.

Before the event, Babyface will perform "America the Beautiful." The sexagenarian is a musical artist, composer, producer, and winner of 12 Grammy Awards. He has had 125 Top 10 songs, 44 number 1 R&B hits and 16 No. 1 pop successes.

After the 2009 Super Bowl, "America the Beautiful" became a standard for pregame introductions. The tune was performed at the previous Super Bowl by R&B performer Jhene Aiko before the start of the Los Angeles Rams vs Cincinnati Bengals game at SoFi Stadium. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has advocated the melody, which has been chanted collectively by black communities for a long time, as "the Black National Anthem" since 1917.

On Super Bowl Sunday, Chris Stapleton will sing the national anthem at State Farm Stadium. The country music superstar has won ten Academy of Country Music Awards, 15 Country Music Awards and eight Grammy Awards. Stapleton has accumulated numerous streams throughout his 20+ year career, propelling him to the summit of the song charts.

Hardly anything represents America more than the American national anthem, and the NFL has traditionally included the national anthem as an essential part of the Super Bowl.

It establishes the mood for the remainder of the game and welcomes viewers. Everyone from trumpeters to show presenters to skilled vocalists has delivered the chilling national anthem at the Super Bowl.
