The NFL announced it will be three-time Grammy Award winner The Weeknd who will be performing this year's Pepsi's Super Bowl LV halftime show.

The Super Bowl will be played at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida on Feb. 7, 2021.

The NFL has not confirmed how many, if any, fans will be allowed to attend this year's Super Bowl. And it will be interesting to see what a performance in front of no crowd could look like.

However, the Super Bowl draws in a big-time TV audience so The Weeknd will still get the eyes he's hoping for. Last year's Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers had 102 million viewers.
