Chris Stapleton to sing national anthem at Super Bowl LVII

Chris Stapleton will perform the national anthem at this year’s Super Bowl, the NFL announced Tuesday. 

The country music star will be part of a pregame lineup that includes R&B legend Babyface performing “America the Beautiful” and Emmy-winning “Abbott Elementary” actress Sheryl Lee Ralph singing “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

The 44-year-old Stapleton has won eight Grammy Awards, 15 CMA awards — including male vocalist of the year in 2021 — and 10 ACM awards in his career and is known for songs like “Tennessee Whiskey” and “You Should Probably Leave.” 

“You was made for this moment and I can’t wait to watch,” Mickey Guyton, who sang the national anthem at last year’s game, wrote on Stapleton’s Instagram. “Enjoy every minute and don’t forget to breathe.”
