TAMPA, Fla. – The Weeknd’s Super Bowl halftime show opened with a barrage of hymns and chorus singers that made it feel like the pop star was coming to rescue us all. All the projection screens, fireworks and light displays in the world (and there were A LOT) couldn’t save us from a so-so performance that underwhelmed. Fireworks followed, but you were left still thinking about those jockstraps bandages (Because how could you not?). Sadly, the Weeknd’s performance wasn’t as memorable as the pomp and circumstance might suggest. His resume looks the part of a star, but The Weeknd’s Super Bowl performance didn’t live up to the hype.

To coincide with his upcoming Super Bowl halftime performance, The Weeknd teamed up with the NFL, Roc Nation and Bravado to create limited-edition Super Bowl-themed apparel. The apparel designs also include the XO typography, along with a skeleton — wearing facial bandages mimicking those recently worn by The Weeknd — above Raymond James Stadium, the site of Super Bowl LV. According to the NFL, this is the league's most extensive product launch for a Super Bowl halftime show performer. The capsule adds to The Weeknd's stated plans to create a different experience for Super Bowl fans. Super Bowl LV is scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m.

(Perry Knotts/NFL via AP)The Weeknd may be known for his graphic music videos and performances featuring blood and violence, but the three-time Grammy winner says he will tone down his act during the Super Bowl halftime show. The pop star said he will “keep it PG” during his headliner slot on Sunday at Raymond James Stadium as the reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Tampa, Florida. The 2021 Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show will be different this year due to the pandemic and The Weeknd said he will use different parts of the stadium, the field and a “little bit" of the famously massive pirate ship. AdWhen asked for his favorite Super Bowl halftime show, The Weeknd cited Diana Ross' 1996 performance. The Weeknd, whose real name is, Abel Tesfaye, joins a list of celebrated musicians who have played during Super Bowl halftime shows, including Madonna, Beyoncé, Coldplay, Katy Perry, U2, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson and last year’s duo of Shakira and Jennifer Lopez.

Pepsi's halftime show may star The Weeknd, but the company hopes its new campaign will create buzz for the show the entire month. The PepsiCo beverage brand is replacing its traditional Super Bowl ad slot with a new campaign to lead-in to its halftime show featuring the musician. Pepsi, which will be sponsoring the Super Bowl's halftime show for the tenth year, said this marks the first time the company has featured its halftime show talent in a commercial about the show. Kaplan said the company is taking an optimistic tack with its own ad. It will also have retail promotions with store displays in locations of stores including Kroger, Target, 7-Eleven, Dollar General.

In addition to tributes for the "Black Panther" actor, racial justice was a major theme of the VMAs shaped by the coronavirus pandemic.
