Super Bowl 2016: Halftime show shoes for Coldplay singer designed by son
The Left Shark costume is on display this year at the Super Bowl 50 NFL Shop at Moscone Center.
Martin mentioned that the band does not dance, nor will their songs inspire you to get up and shake your booty. Martin would not reveal what song they will collaborate with Beyonce on, but confirmed that it would not be “Hymn for the Weekend“, which they recorded with the singer a year ago.
With a third of the US population expected to watch the Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos battle for the National Football League championship, the Super Bowl offers a rare and coveted opportunity for advertisers and performers alike. “I don’t think it would be quite right”, said Martin. “And then we called the right guests, so we know that we have great people joining us”.
At a news conference, the band’s members said they will have the Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles there to represent the future, with Beyonce – whose 2013 performance they adore – honouring the past.
Martin told Us magazine that his 11-year-old daughter with wife Gwyneth Paltrow had sage words for him when he admitted he was nervous about the performance.
It’s traditional to ask whoever is performing on the halftime show who they’re rooting for and most artists refuse to take sides. Rihanna, who just released a new album, is also reported to be a potential performer.
British heartthrobs Coldplay joked about their lack of knowledge about American football as they gear up for their Super Bowl performance alongside stars like Beyonce.
A solid halftime show, however, can provide a flawless bridge into the second half, even if it’s not the primary focus of football fans’ Super Bowl Sunday.
By the way, Chris didn’t say if his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow would be watching, but he says he hoped their children Apple and Moses would. Instead, the band revealed that they will rely on pageantry and a high concept artistic design inspired by the Glastonbury Festival.
