Justin Bieber Rumored To Make Surprise Super Bowl Halftime Appearance

There are non-football storylines galore in this year's Super Bowl. ... including a Super Bowl rumor: Justin Bieber To Join Usher?

Despite a postseason push, the Los Angeles Rams fell short of their ultimate goal this season and will be on the outside looking in for Super Bowl LVIII. 

It's a bittersweet Sunday for many NFL fans whose own team fell short and don't have alliances with the Kansas City Chiefs or San Francisco 49ers.

Good thing there are non-football storylines galore in this year's Super Bowl. Highly-anticipated commercials, "Tayvis" (Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift) sightings, and of course, Usher's halftime show. 

The King of R&B has been rocking a sold-out Las Vegas residency (Usher: My Way, The Vegas Residency) that has been extended twice due to its popularity. The Super Bowl halftime performance will mark his 101st in Las Vegas.

Usher confirmed that he will include special guests for his super halftime performance in an interview with Billboard. But who? That is the question. 

Usher

There is a rumor that Justin Bieber could be a surprise guest after Bieber teased photos on social media.

Bieber and Usher collaborated on the song "Somebody To Love," from Bieber's first studio album My World 2.0. Usher has been credited for developing Bieber into the pop star that he is today. 

Last June, Bieber was diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome, which caused temporary paralysis in half of his face, causing him to cancel the remainder of his Justice world tour.

Bieber played his first live set in over a year at All-Star Weekend in early February when he played at Drake's History Club.

Shortly after, Bieber shared photos and videos on Instagram of himself singing into a microphone and teasing a surprise performance with a shushing emoji.

Also of note, since 2010, only six halftime performers have taken the stage solo.

Usher has a long list of collaborators to keep an eye out for, including Bieber, Lil John, Ludacris, Beyoncé and Alicia Keys.

Meanwhile, winners of the Super Bowl two seasons ago, L.A. hopes to build on the surprisingly successful season. The Rams have a first-round pick for the first time since 2016 and look for their productive rookie class to make the second-season leap.
