Alright, let me tell you how I figured out who’s gonna be rockin’ the Super Bowl Halftime Show. It was a bit of a dive, but hey, that’s how we learn, right?

First off, I started with the obvious. I just googled “Super Bowl Halftime Show 2025.” You know, the usual. Got a bunch of articles, news snippets, the works. Skimmed through a bunch of clickbait titles trying to find something solid.
The problem? Everything was kinda vague, speculating, “sources say,” all that jazz. Nothing concrete.
So, I changed tactics. I thought, “Okay, who usually announces this kinda thing?” The NFL themselves, duh. So, I headed over to the NFL’s official website. Dug around the news section, the Super Bowl section…nada.
Then I thought, “Maybe it’s an Apple Music thing?” Since they’re sponsoring it now. Went to Apple Music’s site, same story. Lots of past shows, hype, but nothing about 2025. Frustrating!
Next step: social media sleuthing. Started checking the official NFL and Apple Music Twitter (or X, whatever) accounts. Scrolling, scrolling, scrolling… Found a bunch of fan speculation, some “leaks” that looked super sketchy, but again, nothing official.

Getting a bit desperate at this point. I decided to try a more targeted search. I figured maybe there’d been an official press release somewhere. So I googled “Super Bowl Halftime Show 2025 press release” and started digging through those results.
After wading through a sea of fan blogs and rumor sites, I finally stumbled upon something that looked legit. It was a report from a reputable news outlet – not some random gossip blog. It mentioned Kendrick Lamar headlining the Apple Music’s 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
- It said he’d be back on stage on Sunday, Feb. 9.
- Also mentioned the game being between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.
Now, here’s the important part: I still didn’t take it as gospel. I needed a second source. So, I cross-referenced that info with a couple of other news outlets I trusted. Boom! Confirmed. Multiple reputable sources reporting the same thing.
So, that’s how I did it. A lot of digging, a lot of sifting through BS, and a whole lotta cross-referencing. It ain’t glamorous, but it gets the job done.
Moral of the story? Don’t believe everything you read online, especially when it comes to the Super Bowl. Do your research!

Key Takeaways:
- Start with the official sources, but don’t stop there.
- Social media can be helpful, but be very skeptical.
- Look for press releases and official announcements.
- Always cross-reference your information with multiple reputable sources.
Hope that helps you find out who’s playing at the Super Bowl (or anything else!) in the future. Happy sleuthing!
