Jennifer Lopez and Shakira are sharing the stage during the Super Bowl halftime show.
Besides the excitement of the big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, many people are drawn to watch the Super Bowl for its buzz-worthy commercials and halftime entertainment. This year at Super Bowl LIV, music superstars Jennifer Lopez and Shakira will wow crowds at the halftime. Watch the halftime show tonight on Fox at 8:20 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. CT, 3:20 p.m PT) or check out the information below for more ways to watch, including free options.
“It doesn’t get any bigger than this! So excited about getting on that SuperBowlLIV PepsiHalftime stage!” Shakira wrote in a tweet back in September, when the duo’s gig was first announced.
Shakira shared an action image from a rehearsal for the performance just 10 days before the game, and based on the height she’s achieving on her jump, it looks as if she could easily hurdle several linebackers.
But the actual throwing and catching of the football could create some problems.
Lopez also shared several sneak peeks into her preparations. One brief video clip earned 8.2 million views in just a day. “Week out from the Super Bowl … can you tell we’re having fun!!??!!” she wrote in the clip’s caption on Instagram.
In another video clip, she takes a football stance on the 25-yard line.
Lopez also showed off her glittery new drinking cup emblazoned with the Super Bowl’s date.
The two singers aren’t officially revealing much about the Super Bowl performance itself. But Hola! magazine published a photo of what it says may be a set list for the event, as shown by Spanish-language talk show Despiérta America. If that list turns out to be accurate, expect some major-league guests (Beyoncé, Pitbull, Ja Rule, Wyclef Jean) and some blockbuster hits (Get Right, Booty, She Wolf, Hips Don’t Lie)
