J.Lo's Daughter Made a Special Appearance During the Super Bowl Halftime Show

From Oprah Magazine

It's a fact that Super Bowl Sunday is an unofficial national holiday in the United States. Because there's not much that Americans love more than football, comfort food, libations, and corny TV commercials—and celebrations include all of that.

So, we're sharing all of the details about Super Bowl LIV in 2020, including the highly anticipated Jennifer Lopez / Shakira halftime show that brought down the Miami stadium.

Please show me the J.Lo and Shakira halftime show STAT.

On September 27, 2019, it was announced that both Jennifer Lopez and Shakira would be co-headlining the Super Bowl halftime show to much fanfare (and some criticism.)

"I love that, next to J.Lo, we'll be representing the Latino community, which is such an important force in the United States," Shakira said in a video for the show's sponsor, Pepsi.

“I think it’s important in this day and age for two Latin women to be standing on that stage—when Latinos are being treated a certain way in this country, or looked at a certain way—to show that we have a really specific and beautiful culture and worth and value, and we bring something to this country that’s necessary,” Lopez recently told Variety. “I think that’s going to be an amazing moment. That night, I want it to be a celebration of who we are. All of us, because we’re in this together.”

In the breathtaking (seriously, we're still catching our breaths) performance on February 2, Lopez enlisted a Columbian salsa group and her daughter, Emme. And along with J.Lo, Shakira brought her greatest hits. We also had special appearances by J Balvin and Bad Bunny. But you're not here to listen to us blabber on about J.Lo's unbelievable body suits (or stripping), or Shakira's stunning moves. Without further ado, here's the halftime show.

Wait, when was the big game again?

Which NFL teams are playing in the Super Bowl?

So which team will be celebrating with confetti and that tell-tale silver Lombardi trophy come February 2? In last year's Pittsburgh Steelers/New England Patriots face-off, the latter came out on top. But this year the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs will be at center stage. This is the first time these teams have appeared in the Super Bowl against one-another.

Which city is hosting this year?

Miami, Florida is the place to be this Super Bowl Sunday, with the game being held at Hard Rock Stadium. And if you're already looking forward to 2021, that year's big game will be held in L.A.

Can I see Demi Lovato's National Anthem performance?

Just two days after announcing her return to music on this year's Grammy stage, Demi Lovato also revealed she's singing the National Anthem at Super Bowl LIV. So it definitely looks like 2020 will be her comeback year. She hasn't performed live since 2018, the year she was hospitalized after suffering a drug overdoes. Ever since she's been focusing on her sobriety.

"See you in Miami 🌴 @NFL ," she wrote in an Instagram caption.

Lovato joins the ranks of stars like Beyoncé, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carry, P!nk, and Alicia Keys who have also taken on the Star Spangled banner for football's biggest night.

Here's that performance:
