Exciting News! Reba McEntire Will Sing the National Anthem at Super Bowl LVIII

Super Bowl LVIII just got a whole lot more fun, especially for country music fans!

Reba McEntire (famously known as just Reba) will officially kick off the big game by singing the national anthem. The news was announced by CBS and the NFL on the morning of Thursday, January 18.

She's in good company, too! There will be two other pregame performances worth getting excited for: American rapper and 10-time Grammy Award nominee, Post Malone was also officiated as a performer, alongside R&B singer and Grammy Award winner, Andra Day. Malone will sing "America the Beautiful,” whereas Day will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

All three artists will warm up the stage for our highly anticipated Super Bowl halftime performer, Usher!

Reba also shared the news to "X" (a social media platform formerly known as Twitter), and her brief post was enough to make any fan of hers sentimental.

The singer posted two images side-by-side—one from her younger years and the other announcing her news as the national anthem singer.

"How I met y'all," Reba wrote in her post, "I’m still here."

The comments underneath were buck-wild with joy!

"QUEEN!!!!! Cannot wait!" one user commented.

"Don’t make me cry," another user demanded.

"Congrats! That is a full circle honor," one more said. For reference, Reba used to sing the national anthem consistently over at the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City. This went on for about a decade when she was first making a name for herself.

Reba is a country music icon who has won 3 Grammy Awards (nominated for 17). She is a co-judge of NBC's The Voice, and famed actress who stars in many of our favorite cheeky movies and TV sitcoms, mostly famously Reba!

Super Bowl LVIII will take place on Sunday, February 11. While the official kickoff is at 6:30 p.m. ET, you'll definitely want to check in a little early so that you don't miss out on any of the pregame performances!
