Maroon 5 | Entertainment News, Photos, and Videos

There will be several musical moments during the 2019 Super Bowl and we have the full list of performers set to appear during the big game.

The kick off is at 6:30pm ET tonight (February 3), but make sure to tune in before the game for some great performances.

Chloe x Halle, the sister duo who star on Freeform’s grown-ish and are mentored by Beyonce, will be singing “America the Beautiful.”

Grammy-winning artist Gladys Knight is set to sing the National Anthem. She previously spoke out about why she decided to take the gig despite all of the stars protesting the game.

Make sure to tune in for the Halftime Show, which will be headlined by Maroon 5 with special guest Travis Scott. There are some rumors about other guests possibly appearing too.

Adam Levine is speaking out for the first time to address the controversy surrounding Maroon 5‘s decision to perform in the 2019 Super Bowl Halftime Show.

There are many celebrities boycotting the Super Bowl this year due to the NFL’s treatment of Colin Kaepernick, who hasn’t played professionally in years following his decision to kneel during the National Anthem in protest of police brutality.

“I’m not in the right profession if I can’t handle a little bit of controversy. It’s what it is. We expected it. We’d like to move on from it and speak through the music,” Adam said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. “I silenced all the noise and listened to myself and made my decision based upon how I felt.”

Adam confirms that he consulted others on the decision to perform, but ultimately it came down to his own opinion. “No one thought about it harder than I did. No one put more thought and love into this than I did.”

“It took a lot of looking inward, it took a lot of introspection,” he added. “I thought to myself, ‘What’s my greatest tool, what’s the thing that I can use to express myself and what’s the best way for the band to express themselves, and how are we going to do it this year? What do we owe ourselves? What do we owe the people?’ And that’s what we did. And I’m beyond proud of the finished product and literally, I’ve never been more excited in my entire life to present this to people because I believe that it’s truly a reflection of all of us.”

A reporter just revealed a very big spoiler about Maroon 5 and Travis Scott‘s halftime show performance: that viral SpongeBob SquarePants song may actually make an appearance!

If you don’t know, a song from a 2001 episode of SpongeBob, titled “Sweet Victory,” recently went viral in mashups with Travis‘ Sicko Mode. “Sweet Victory” also happens to be played in a SpongeBob episode featuring a big sporting event like the Super Bowl.

Well, a sports reporter, Angela Moryan, stumbled upon a rehearsal for the halftime show and she snapped a pic that clearly has an image of SpongeBob projected in the stadium.

So…it’s possible the SpongeBob song “Sweet Victory” will be played during the halftime show!

It’s tradition for the Super Bowl Halftime Show act to hold a press conference on the Wednesday before the big day, but Maroon 5 will not be doing one this year.

The NFL has released a statement saying that the band’s halftime show will speak for itself.

“Maroon 5 has been working hard on a Pepsi Super Bowl LIII Halftime Show that will meet and exceed the standards of this event,” the statement reads. “As it is about music, the artists will let their show do the talking as they prepare to take the stage this Sunday. Starting with the Pepsi Super Bowl LIII Halftime Show announcement, we began a cross-platform rollout of behind-the-scenes footage and content from each of the halftime performers. Instead of hosting a press conference, this social and digital media rollout will continue through Sunday across our owned and operated media assets as well as through the platforms of the artists.”

It was also announced today that the NFL and Maroon 5 will be making a large charitable donation ahead of the Super Bowl.

Halftime show band Maroon 5, along with the NFL and Interscope Records, have announced a huge donation to the Big Brothers Big Sisters of America ahead of the 2019 Super Bowl.

“Playing the Super Bowl has been a dream of our band for a long time,” Adam Levine told People. “We thank the NFL for the opportunity and also to them, along with Interscope Records, for making this donation to Big Brothers Big Sisters, which will have a major impact for children across the country.”

Travis Scott, who is also performing at the halftime show, also required the NFL to make a $500,000 contribution to Dream Corps, a non-profit social justice organization.

The 2019 Super Bowl will take place on Sunday (February 3) in Atlanta, Ga.

Maroon 5 has been officially named as the 2019 Super Bowl‘s halftime show headliner.

After months of speculation, the group revealed that they will be taking the stage during the highly anticipated game on February 3rd.

In the announcement video, the band also confirmed that Travis Scott and Big Boi will be joining the performance.

Billboard also revealed that Travis required the NFL to make a joint donation to an organization fighting for social justice in order for him to move forward with the event.

Super Bowl LIII will take place on February 3rd at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, GA.
