Country music star Morgan Wallen has topped a list of artists who could headline the 2027 Super Bowl halftime show. Following last weekend’s Super Bowl, which was headlined by Bad Bunny, the website Fan Duel has released betting odds on who will headline the 2027 edition. Fan favourites According to the odds, Chasin’ You singer Morgan Wallen sits ahead of Harry Styles, Ariana Grande, and Drake as the favourites to headline next year’s Super Bowl. Morgan Wallen, a Tennessean who rose to fame after competing on The Voice, released his fourth studio album, I’m the Problem last year. It topped the Billboard 200 chart upon its release. Other artists featuring in the Fan Duel list include J.Cole, Justin Bieber, A$AP Rocky, Lil Wayne, Taylor Swift, Cardi B and Miley Cyrus. Meanwhile, Bad Bunny’s halftime show last weekend was the fourth most-watched Super Bowl performance ever. The show was almost entirely performed in Spanish and special guests included Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin. Country music at the Super Bowl Numerous country music stars have performed at previous iterations of the Super Bowl. Those who have featured in the halftime show have included Shania Twain in 2003 and Kid Rock the following year. Country music stars have previously been favoured to perform the national anthem ahead of kickoff, rather than feature in the halftime show. Most recently, Chris Stapleton sang Star-Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl in 2023. Others who have performed the national anthem include the Dixie Chicks, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Mickey Guyton, and Faith Hill, who has been given the honour twice. However, the most important show in terms of country music was in 1994. The show, named “Rockin’ Country Sunday”, featured Clint Black, Tanya Tucker, Travis Tritt, and the Judds.
