Jay Z’s tennis partner Chris Martin deliberately let it slip that Bruno Mars will be joining Coldplay during their Super Bowl halftime performance on Sunday.
Some of you may be thinking: “Wait, I thought Beyoncé was headlining the Super Bowl this year?” That’s an honest mistake. Beyoncé will, indeed, also be appearing during the halftime performance.
