Super Bowl 2025 Halftime Show Performer
The halftime show at the Super Bowl has been a much-anticipated performance for decades. Since 1993, this performance has been talked about by fans of the Super Bowl as they get to witness their favorite artists perform. For Super Bowl 2025, Kendrick Lamar has been chosen as the halftime show artist. This decision has come with a bit of pushback from the locals of New Orleans, as they had prepared to showcase the Super Bowl in the spirit of the city next year. The event logo too, was thus designed keeping in mind the local culture and history of New Orleans. Mardi Gras Indian Queen Tahj is said to have designed this logo for Super Bowl 2025.
However, the NFL has stated that they are good to go with next year’s halftime show performer, Kendrick Lamar. There is also a guest artist who is supposed to accompany Lamar on the show. But the details have not yet been revealed on this. Lamar has stated that the identity of the guest will be revealed at the show itself as a surprise for the fans. Other legendary artists who have performed for the Super Bowl halftime shows include Michael Jackson, Prince, U2, Black Eyed Peas, Madonna, and Beyonce.

Super Bowl 2025 Contenders
Just more than two months from the game, the battle for the Vince Lombardi Trophy remains close, with the Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Baltimore Ravens all having formidable contenders in the AFC. There is also the return of the current two-time winners, the Kansas City Chiefs. The group led by Patrick Mahomes is attempting to accomplish something no other team has done in history. They are determined to win the title for the third straight year.
Meanwhile, in the NFC, the Detroit Lions are noteworthy contenders and want to play in the Super Bowl for the first time in their history, diminishing the blacklist of clubs that have never competed in such a match. In addition to Detroit, the Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Houston Texans are yet to see the winning side.
Super Bowl 2025 Logo
Keeping in touch with the traditions of New Orleans, the Super Bowl 2025 event logo has been designed similarly. The designer, a young upcoming talent, named Tahj Williams (popularly known as Queen Tahj) has provided a unique touch to the logo.
Tahj is a Mardi Gras Indian hailing from New Orleans and is a local artist. The NFL has collaborated with a budding artist for the first time ever ahead of the games. She used her unique beadwork style to weave the logo. Sewing the logo onto the canvas frame directly, she has shown her exceptional working style that she used in her earlier works too. The logo is created with red and green whorls. Featuring fleur de lis-inspired embellishments, she has added pink accents along the Lombardi trophy. Earlier she was seen in Jon Batiste’s live performance at the Grammys. The logo and her touch are definitely symbolic of the upcoming traditional touches of New Orleans to the Super Bowl 2025.
