Ne-Yo Backs Chris Brown as the Perfect Super Bowl Halftime Headliner for 2026

By

R&B star Ne-Yo believes it’s time for Chris Brown to take center stage at the Super Bowl Halftime Show. When discussing the possibility of headlining the prestigious event himself, Ne-Yo humbly shifted the spotlight to Brown, emphasizing that his fellow artist deserves the honor first.

“With zero ego, I say this—I feel like Chris should get the next one. Then, I’ll go after Chris,” Ne-Yo stated. “Chris deserves that now!”

His endorsement adds to the ongoing debate about which artists are best suited for the Super Bowl’s legendary stage. With Brown’s extensive catalog of hits, high-energy performances, and undeniable influence on the music industry, many fans would agree that he’s more than ready for the moment.

Super Bowl LX will take place in Santa Clara, California on February 8, 2026, as has previously been stated, although the main attraction for the halftime performance probably won’t be disclosed until the fall of 2025.

At the time of writing, Chris has not publicly addressed requests for him to rock the big game with his army of songs; instead, he is starting his own international tour, called “Breezy Bowl,” which will begin later this year.
