Lady Gaga’s halftime performance at Super
Bowl LI is over three days away, but she rocked the media room with her
distinctive flair during a news conference Thursday in Houston.
Gaga has hinted that her sister wants her to perform
suspended from the roof, which is 265 feet above the NRG Stadium field, but she
was coy about who might be joining her during halftime of the game between the
New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons on Sunday night.
Reports of the stunt had leaked out before,
but her ladyship confirmed it Monday, saying it was the idea of her younger
sister, Natali.
Of course, the one question that has everyone
buzzing is Beyonce, 35
going to be there? On the same day that Beyonce revealed that she’s pregnant
with twins, Gaga posted a mysterious message on Instagram. “Houston, you are
beautiful,” she wrote, before adding the bee-emoji.
You know the same emoji her fans, the Bey-Hive, use to pay
homage to Bey! Gaga may just have been trolling, but she did get people
talking. Huh. Well, if anyone could make a Super Bowl cameo while pregnant, it
would be Beyonce.
“My sister was like, ‘I know, let’s suspend
you in the air!’ ” Gaga said, laughing, in an interview with “Karson &
Kennedy” on Boston’s Mix 104.1.
First up at the news conference, though, is
country star Luke Bryan, who will sing the national anthem. He’ll be following
in Lady Gaga’s footsteps there; she delivered a powerful performance of “The
Star-Spangled Banner” at Super Bowl 50.
Bryan says he has already been peppered with
questions about how long the song will go. That was a genuine gambling
controversy last year, much to Bryan’s amusement. “A friend called me up
and said, ‘Hey, buddy. Are you going long?’ Just say ‘long’ if you are.”
