Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige Among Five Artists Headlining Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show

Dr. Dre, Eminem and Mary J. Blige are among a star-studded group of artists who will headline the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show, the NFL announced Thursday. The game will be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., home to the Rams and Chargers.

"I'm extremely excited to share the stage with my friends for the #PepsiHalftime Show," Dr. Dre shared in a tweet. "This will introduce the next saga of my career. Bigger and Better than Ever!!!"

The halftime show also features two Los Angeles legends: Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar. This year's group of artists have a combined 43 Grammy awards, 19 No. 1 Billboard albums and five epic hitmakers.

This marks the third halftime performance collaboration between Roc Nation, Pepsi and the NFL. Last year, the Weeknd headlined the Super Bowl halftime show at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. 

In addition to the halftime show, the league has collaborated to support the launch of the Region School No. 1, a magnet high school in south Los Angeles. The school, which is set to open for students in fall 2022, is based on the nationally-acclaimed  USC Jimmy Iovine and Andre "Dr. Dre" Young Academy, a program that offers an education based on integrated design, technology and entrepreneurship.
