The Grammy winner Usher will headline the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show in Las Vegas.
The NFL, Apple Music, and Roc Nation announced Sunday that Usher would lead the halftime festivities from Allegiant Stadium on Feb. 11. The music megastar, who has won eight Grammys, said he’s looking forward to performing on the NFL’s biggest stage.
“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list,” Usher said in a statement. “I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before.”

What's something you're convinced other people are just pretending to like? Maybe to look cool, or be trendy. Someone on X asked people and here are a few you may or may not agree with
1. Crocs. They're ugly, and not really that comfortable.
2. Caviar. You're just trying to feel rich.
3. Sparkling water. Quote, "It tastes like if Sprite lied about its personality."
4. Driving a stick shift. If you're doing it by choice, you're dumb.
5. Camping. It's uncomfortable, and everything you bring will smell like campfire.
6. Running outside as a form of exercise. It's just so boring.
7. The beach. It's not worth getting sand everywhere.
8. Kale. Sure, eat it because it's good for you. But don't pretend you like it.
9. The taste of any type of alcohol, including IPAs.
10. Extremely spicy stuff. Especially things like Carolina reapers.
11. Bubble baths. Are they really as relaxing as people pretend they are?
12. Plain black coffee. Unless it's some high-end stuff, yuck.
13. Clubs once you're over the age of 35.
14. Being a parent. You'd never give it up, but do you actually LIKE it?
15. Lobster. If it's something you actually enjoy, why drown it in butter?

Today's Useless Fact of the Day - Canned food was invented in 1810 . . . but the can opener wasn't invented until 1858. So in those 48 years in between, people had to use a hammer and chisel to get it open.
