Jay-Z to perform at Super Bowl half-time show
The rapper has been involved with the show for years but has never before performed at the NFL championship game.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center on Jay-Z being named as the Super Bowl LXI halftime headliner, and both tie the show to SoFi Stadium in California. Fox News is the only one to use the Los Angeles/Inglewood framing and to mention Apple Music and the Feb. 14, 2027 date, while The Guardian US alone frames the booking around Jay-Z moving from producer to performer.
