In the biggest game of the year, the Patriots and the Seahawks will battle for the Lombardi Trophy, but halfway through, one of the biggest pop icons with take the stage to entertain the world.

Katy Perry will perform in the Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show in Phoenix.

“I feel very honored and very proud and very blessed that I get to play the halftime show at this age,” said Perry. “I feel like it’s an incedible, humbling, spiritual experience in some ways.”

She will be joined by special guest Lenny Kravitz.

“Lenny is going to be sharing the stage with me. We’ve worked up something incredibly soulful, of course he brings the soul and I think it’s just going to make the night even sexier.”

Perry will be following some legendary Super Bowl Halftime Shows from the past including Michael Jackson, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Paul McCartney and Prince.

Asked about what she wanted to be remembered for after the show, “I just hope at the end of the day that over 100 million people are smiling in unison and I want for all of it to be about the music.”

Perry said that she will be rooting for the Seattle Seahawks because of her close friendship with Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.
