Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl halftime show is happening today.
The Super Bowl is one of the biggest events in the American sporting calendar and it takes place this morning.
Even if you have little interest in the sporting action, there’s a good reason to tune in: Lady Gaga will be performing the famous halftime show, which last year was viewed by a staggering 111.5 million people in the U.S. alone!
The culmination of the NFL’s gruelling five-month season takes place at the NRG stadium in Houston, Texas and will culminate in either the New England Patriots or the Atlanta Falcons being crowned this season’s champion.
Although Super Bowl halftime shows have become synonymous with tons of guest stars, Pepsi, who is putting on the show, said Lady Gaga will only be joined by Tony Bennett. The 90-year old crooner, who has collaborated with Gaga in the past, gave a short introduction.

Gaga’s performance is also reportedly be featuring “hundreds” of “lit-up drones”, according to sources behind the show’s production, who spoke to CNN.
A 34.5-mile radius was established around Houston’s NRG Stadium for game day, but Gaga has reportedly had clearance for the use of unmanned aerial vehicles. This would be the first time drones have appeared as part of a Super Bowl halftime show. Fan-shot footage, recorded last week, shows drones being tested at the NRG, spelling out the letter “G”.
