Singer-songwriter Reba McEntire performed a powerful rendition of the National Anthem at the 2024 Super Bowl, minutes before kickoff between the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs on CBS.
Sporting a sparkling blazer and belt, the Grammy-winning country music star’s performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner” was met by loud applause and cheers from the crowd assembled at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for Super Bowl LVIII.
McEntire’s performance left several players emotional on the sideline, including Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones, who blinked away tears.
