Queen Latifah reigned supreme at Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday (Feb. 2). The singer-actress sung ‘America the Beautiful’ before kick off of the big game.
Latifah was backed by a full band and the New Jersey Youth Choir, which is composed of 72 girls in grades seven through 12. She performed a very tender yet beautiful rendition of the patriotic song, which was penned by the late tunesmith Katharine Lee Bates.
Latifah wore a white turtleneck sweater with a long blue coat and black boots, while the Youth Choir donned all-white coats.
This isn’t Latifah’s first time performing the patriotic song at a Super Bowl. The entertainer also performed the song at the 2010 Super Bowl.
As for her performance at this year’s game, viewers seemed pleasantly happy with Latifah’s rendition of ‘America the Beautiful.’
