Super Bowl halftime show contenders revealed — you won’t believe the lineup
Here are six major names leading the race

The Super Bowl LX will be held at Levi’s Stadium on February 8, and excitement for the halftime performance is increasing.
Over the years, this mid-game performance has given us unforgettable performances from Kendrick Lamar last year, to Beyoncé, and Rihanna in the past.
Now, the hype has already begun for next year’s show, and the list of potential performers, with fans debating who truly deserves the stage.
According to Pollymarket, here are six major names leading the race. And if the numbers are any indication, it’s going to be a tight race.

Jay-Z (26%)
Sitting at the top of the poll with 26%, Jay-Z is a true icon; he’s a cultural architect. As the man behind Roc Nation, which helps produce the Halftime Show, his influence is already stamped on the event.
While Jay-Z has focused more on business in recent years, fans can’t stop imagining a powerful, career-spanning set that blends hip-hop classics with high-profile guest appearances.

Billie Eilish (24%)
The Bad Guy singer Billie Eilish has taken the music world by storm with her haunting vocals and gothic style. With 24% of the votes, she’s not far behind Jay-Z.
The 22-year-old Grammy and Oscar winner could bring a moody, visually striking performance that contrasts the usual high-energy pop spectacles, a new vibe for the Super Bowl stage.

Taylor Swift (19%)
Tied in third place with Travis Scott, Taylor Swift sits at 19%. Given her record-breaking tours and ability to turn any stage into a stadium-sized sing-along, it’s surprising she hasn’t headlined already.
With her huge fanbase, a Swift Halftime Show could break viewing records, and maybe even crash social media.

Travis Scott (19%)
The Fein singer is also in the list, holding 19%. Travis Scott is known for his crazy fanbase, turning concerts into an earthquake.
His Astroworld set design and crowd energy are insane, and fans know he would deliver a high-octane and explosive show, perfect for the audience to pump them up in the show.

Miley Cyrus (14%)
At 14%, Miley Cyrus is the unpredictable element of the poll. She’s proven she can handle massive stages, from her Hannah Montana days to her rock-infused pop performances.
A Halftime Show from Miley could swing from soulful ballads to high-energy anthems, all while keeping viewers guessing.

Sabrina Carpenter (13%)
Bringing in 13%, Sabrina Carpenter is the youngest and newest contender on the list. Thanks to her recent chart success and viral moments, she’s on a rapid rise.
While she doesn’t have the same decades-long catalog as some of her competition, her growing popularity could give the show a fresh, modern feel.
With these six contenders, the stage is set for one of the most exciting Halftime Show decisions in recent memory.
Whether the NFL opts for a seasoned legend, a chart-topping superstar, or a fresh face, one thing is certain: the world will be watching.
