New trailer drops for Super Bowl LVI halftime show

Mary J. Blige, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Dr. Dre, who are all set to share the stage at next month’s Super Bowl in Los Angeles, are all showcased in a new, first-of-its-kind trailer.

The 12-minute musical performance will boast generations' worth of artists and tracks with Jay-Z serving as entertainment adviser for the show.

Blige also hinted at the epic visual elements audiences can expect from the performance.

"Just know this. It’s some history man," she said. "It’s a celebration of how far you know hip-hop has come, how far R&B has come, how far you know just you know, music and our culture."

Blige first performed at the Super Bowl halftime in 2001 alongside NSYNC and Aerosmith, but she said this year the bar has been raised to a new high.

"It's just going to go, you know through the sky," she said. "You know I say sky's the limit? There’s no limit on this sky."

Blige will pull double duty with her star power as both halftime performer and on-screen in a commercial for Hologic, that will focus on women's health and the importance of mammograms.

"Women, we do so much but a lot of us we forget to take care of ourselves," Blige said.

As for the show, Blige said she hopes it will offer fans something positive at a time when the NFL is again facing controversy.

"We focus on uplifting the people with the music of lifting the people with the beauty and the fashion and bringing them back to a place where we can all come together," she said.
