The cultural significance of the Super Bowl for Americans cannot be understated.
In the USA, the Super Bowl means many things. For American Football teams, it's the ultimate shot of prestige. For advertisers, it's the chance to place their products in front of as many eyeballs as they'll ever get the chance to all year. Advertising space during the Super Bowl can cost millions for a thirty second TV spot. For viewers at home, it's a reason for people to come together and yell at their TV sets.
One of the hallmarks of the sporting event is the halftime show, which is a chance for bands and musicians to put on one hell of a performance. Viewers can expect big spectacle performances, with pomp to match the grandiosity of the sporting event, itself. Previous halftime shows have featured Bruno Mars, Katy Perry, Bruce Springsteen, and many more. Next year's halftime show will be headlined by Lady Gaga. This news comes right after the announcement of her newest album, Joanne.
