Eric Church and Jazmine Sullivan stand on the field and perform an incredible rendition of the National Anthem during the 2021 Super Bowl.
The 43-year-old country music star and the 33-year-old R&B singer performed a duet of the “Star-Spangled Banner” on Sunday (February 7) at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla.
Jazmine recently talked to Glamour about getting to perform at the Super Bowl.
“Honestly, I’ll be the first to say I’ve played myself small all my life. So I never even dreamt of performing at the Super Bowl. I always looked at that as a moment for someone who had a career that was bigger than mine. So I’m just super grateful, in shock, and excited to share this moment with my loved ones who have seen me go through all the things I have in my life,” she said.

The 2021 Super Bowl just added three more performers to the lineup!
Jazmine Sullivan and Eric Church will be singing the National Anthem together in the pre-game moment that usually brings the house down! Demi Lovato performed in 2020 and Gladys Knight sang the rendition in 2019.
In addition, the NFL announced that H.E.R. will sing “America the Beautiful.” Yolanda Adams performed the song last year and Chloe x Halle performed it the year prior.
The Weeknd will be performing live during the halftime show. This year, the two teams playing in the Super Bowl are unknown. It will either be the Buffalo Bills or Kansas City Chiefs vs. either the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or the Green Bay Packers.
Tune-in on February 7 to the Super Bowl on CBS Kick-Off Show at 6pm ET! The game will start shortly after.
