Three-time Grammy winner The Weeknd is set to perform next year at the Pepsi Super Bowl LV Halftime Show, according to ESPN<\/a>. The singer, whose current album “After Hours” is the most-streamed R&B record of all time, announced the upcoming performance on Instagram.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all grow up watching the world\u2019s biggest acts playing the Super Bowl and one can only dream of being in that position,\u201d The Weeknd said, according to Variety<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019m humbled, honored and ecstatic to be the center of that infamous stage this year.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The singer was also named as one of Time<\/i> Magazine\u2019s most influential people this year. His song “Blinding Lights” was certified platinum five times by the Recording Industry Association of America and it broke the record for Billboard’s longest-running Number 1 on its national radio chart.<\/p>\n

Roc Nation will co-executive produce the halftime show with Jesse Collins, and it will air during the game on CBS. It marks the second year of a partnership involving the NFL, Pepsi, and Roc Nation. Roc Nation CEO Jay-Z said the singer will be a huge asset for this year\u2019s production because \u201chis soulful uniqueness has defined a new generation of greatness in music and artistry.”<\/p>\n

Other big acts who have performed at previous Super Bowl halftime shows include Beyonc\u00e9, Coldplay, U2, Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, and Jennifer Lopez with Shakira.
