Chris Stapleton took the stage of Super Bowl Lvii at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona to perform the U.S. National Anthem. The singer-songwriter’s rendition of the “Star-Spangled Banner” was emotional and inspiring.
However, the moment that took the night was Coda star Troy Kotsur who performed the anthem using American Sign Language (Asl). Although the NFL game has had Asl interpreters performing alongside the main artist, this is the first time it was done with an Oscar winner.
Ahead of his performance at the big game, Kotsur said he had been hesitant to accept the offer but told Variety that when he found out that the Super Bowl was in his home town he said, “Hell yes, I’m in.”
The championship game that saw the Philadelphia Eagles face the Kansas City Chiefs also had more pre-game performances. Performing “America the Beautiful” was Grammy-winning star Babyface with Colin Denny,...

Rihanna admits when she got the call to headline this year’s Super Bowl halftime show, she thought twice about the opportunity: “I was like, ‘You sure? I’m three months postpartum. Should I be making major decisions like this right now? I might regret this.”
But the singer said becoming a mom gave her the energy to take on the big event, especially with her 9-month-old son watching on.
“When you become a mom, there’s something that just happens where you feel like you could take on the world — you can do anything. And the Super Bowl is one of the biggest stages in the world, so as scary as that was … there’s something exhilarating about the challenge of it all,” she said. “It’s important for my son to see that.”

There was no need for Sheryl Lee Ralph to think twice when she was offered the opportunity to sing at Super Bowl Lvii. The “Abbott Elementary” star was tapped to perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing” before the big Sunday night game on Feb. 12, and she tells Et it was a no-brainer to accept.
Recalling the moment she got the call, Ralph shares that she had “a moment of like, ‘What me? They want me to sing at the Super Bowl — a song that has never been a part of the opening ceremonies? Me? Yes!'”
Ralph’s pregame performance will occur alongside Chris Stapleton, who will sing the national anthem, and Babyface, who will perform “America the Beautiful.”
In addition to the all-star lineup, Troy Kotsur, Academy Award winner and “Coda” star, will sign the national anthem on behalf of the National Association of the Deaf (Nad) in Asl.
