According to recent articles from Puck News and Deadline, Jay-Z has chosen himself as the performer for Super Bowl LXI.
“This somewhat blows my mind, but it's right on brand for the NFL and Jay-Z,” says “Fearless” host Jason Whitlock.
Whitlock begins by listing out the Super Bowl halftime performers since Jay-Z took control in 2019:
2020 — Shakira & Jennifer Lopez
2021 — The Weeknd
2022 — Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar
2023 — Rihanna
2024 — Usher
2025 — Kendrick Lamar
2026 — Bad Bunny
“And now he's picking himself. This has really turned into a no whites allowed situation,” sighs Whitlock. “Diversity, equity, and inclusion is no part of Jay-Z's strategy or the NFL strategy as it relates to Super Bowl halftimes.”
The NFL, he says, seems to have learned nothing from the toll Turning Point USA’s alternative halftime show took on Bad Bunny’s performance last year.
“TPUSA's halftime show was a raging success that actually hurt Super Bowl ratings. Bad Bunny's ratings dipped. The Super Bowl ratings did not do what they were supposed to do. ... Doesn't seem like the NFL has learned anything,” he says.
While Jay-Z is “not the same” as Bad Bunny, who “sang in Spanish” and “made homosexual references,” Whitlock still doesn’t think he’s a good choice for what’s supposed to be a family-friendly show.
“I find Jay-Z's music inappropriate for a Super Bowl halftime. It's gutter rap music,” he says.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
