The NFL announced Miley Cyrus’ upcoming performance at Super Bowl LV.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed in a released statement the NFL invited medical workers to thank and honor them for their contribution during the pandemic. “These dedicated health care workers continue to put their own lives at risk to serve others, and we owe them our ongoing gratitude,” he stated.
“We hope in a small way that this initiative will inspire our country and recognize these true American heroes,” Roger added. “This is also an opportunity to promote the importance of vaccination and appropriate health practices, including wearing masks in public settings.”
In addition to 7,500 health care workers, 14,500 additional fans are also expected to attend the show at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. It was previously revealed that The Weeknd is tapped as headliner for the 2021 Super Bowl halftime show.
