Overview
- The NFL, Apple Music and Roc Nation had not named a Super Bowl 2027 halftime headliner by Monday, breaking the league’s recent pattern of late‑September announcements.
- U.S. and German reports say Miley Cyrus is the leading rumored candidate while Dua Lipa and talks with Sabrina Carpenter’s team have also been reported, and these names remain unconfirmed.
- Several outlets point to ESPN’s Monday Night Football as a likely stage for a surprise announcement because ESPN holds U.S. broadcast rights for the upcoming Super Bowl.
- Coverage notes that Roc Nation and Jay‑Z play an influential producing role and that the company could step in to select or produce the show if primary deals stall.
- The Super Bowl is set for February 14, 2027 at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, and German outlets expect free‑to‑air and streaming coverage on RTL, DAZN, RTL+ and SkyGo though none had officially confirmed rights.
