During Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, Post Malone captivated the audience with his acoustic rendition of 'America the Beautiful.' Dressed in a brown blazer, white shirt, and blue jeans, the singer took the stage with his guitar in hand. As players looked on in silence, celebrities like Taylor Swift and Blake Lively were seen embracing and swaying to the special performance.
Post Malone is not only making waves with his live performances but is also making a mark on the music industry. The talented artist is set to be featured on the opening track of Taylor Swift's upcoming album, 'The Tortured Poets Department.' With ten Grammy nominations under his belt, Post Malone has been dominating the charts since his breakout hit 'White Iverson' in 2015. He has achieved four number one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including 'Circles,' 'Sunflower,' 'Rockstar,' and 'Psycho.' Furthermore, two of his albums, 'Beerbongs & Bentleys' (2018) and 'Hollywood's Bleeding' (2019), were nominated for album of the year at the prestigious Grammy Awards.
Post Malone follows in the footsteps of Babyface, who performed 'America the Beautiful' during last year's Super Bowl before the Kansas City Chiefs triumphed over the San Francisco 49ers. This particular song has become a cherished part of the Super Bowl pre-game tradition since 2009.
Despite his experience performing for massive crowds, Post Malone admitted feeling nervous leading up to the Super Bowl. In an interview with Apple Music before the big game, he expressed his excitement and nervousness, acknowledging the magnitude of performing a song that many renowned artists have sung on the same stage. His determination to give it his all shines through, with his focus on delivering the best performance he possibly can.
Adding to the lineup of the evening's performers were Reba McEntire, who delivered a heartfelt rendition of the national anthem, and Andra Day, who captivated the crowd with her performance of 'Lift Every Voice and Sing.' Usher also took center stage as the headliner of this year's highly anticipated Super Bowl Halftime Show.
As the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers competed at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Super Bowl LVIII was a dazzling spectacle for football fans and music enthusiasts alike. The combination of outstanding musical performances and the thrilling game created an unforgettable experience for all in attendance.
