Super Bowl LIV stars: DJ Khaled, Cardi B, Lizzo, Lady Gaga, and more A-listers ride the party this year
In terms of musical star power, this Super Bowl weekend is guaranteed to be just as big as last week's 2020 Grammy Awards weekend. A huge number of mega music stars are expected to perform at various venues ahead of Jennifer Lopez's and Shakira’s Super Bowl halftime show in Miami. This diverse mix of music icons will be donning their party hats, ready to entertain and let loose in anticipation of one of the biggest TV events of the year on Sunday, February 2.
DJ Khaled, in particular, will relish coming back to the city to celebrate his very first Grammy win in style - after all, Miami is the city where Khaled built his career as a radio host. On Sunday night, Jan 26, DJ Khaled won the Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Performance for the song 'Higher', an iconic collaboration with the late great rapper Nipsey Hussle and R&B singer John Legend. "Oh yeah, we’re definitely celebrating (this) week. I remember Super Bowl came here 10 years ago and it was a special time. We want to make this special, too,” Khaled told The Associated Press. “I’m excited it’s in Miami.”
The superstar DJ is slated to perform at multiple pre-Super Bowl events this week - these parties are expected to feature a slew of A-list celebrities, including Diddy, Shaquille O'Neal, Lady Gaga, Lizzo, Post Malone, Kevin Hart, Vin Diesel, Cardi B, Chris Brown, Guns N’ Roses and Maroon 5. Khaled will be performing at multiple events, such as the EA Sports Bowl, the Vewtopia Music Festival and Rolling Stone's party. Other artistes too, are expected to perform several times throughout the week, including Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, The Chainsmokers, DaBaby, Marshmello, Megan Thee Stallion, Meek Mill, and Tiesto.
Cardi B, Ludacris, Wiz Khalifa, Charlie Puth and Ozuna will be performing at a Miami concert that will be celebrating the upcoming 'Fast & Furious 9' movie (which Cardi B also features in). Other stars of the film Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, John Cena, and Tyrese will be in attendance as well. The Grammy award-winning rapper will also hold a late-night performance at the LIV nightclub and headline Vewtopia.
Lizzo is also packed with gigs - she will sing at SiriusXM & Pandora's Opening Drive Super Concert Series and then at the Planet Pepsi Zero Sugar pre-Super Bowl party, which will also feature Harry Styles and DJ Mark Ronson at the Meridian Island Gardens in Miami. Furthermore, Lady Gaga, who headlined the halftime show in 2017, will perform at the same venue for AT&T TV Super Saturday Night, a day before Super Bowl LIV.
Meanwhile, Post Malone is also scheduled to hit the stage for Bootsy On the Water, a Bootsy Bellows pop-up gig that will be hosted by Kevin Hart. Swae Lee, who collaborated with Malone on the hit song 'Sunflower', will be hosting an event to launch his shoe collection with Giuseppe Zanotti at Miami's Saks Fifth Avenue on January 31.
With so much on offer in terms of entertainment before the Super Bowl in Miami, we'd recommend you choose wisely and plump for your favorite performer!
