Reba McEntire kicked off the 2024 Super Bowl on Sunday with her stunning voice ā and an equally impressive outfit.
Stepping onto the field in a tan blazer, black shirt and jeans with beaded tassels and a giant belt buckle, the country legend, 68, gave a moving rendition of the national anthem.
As she sang for the stadium, McEntire’s outfit flashed for all to see.

Earlier in the day, McEntire ditched a blue fur coat, jeans and blue cowboy boots for a monochromatic look, but switched it all up before taking the court.
On January 18, the NFL revealed the lineup for the pregame show leading into the highly anticipated championship game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. The “Fancy” singer would sing “The Star-Spangled Banner,” followed by Post Malone’s “America the Beautiful,” and Andra Day would close with “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”
Along with the announcement, McEntire released a press statement expressing how “honored” she was to participate in the Super Bowl in Las Vegas. “2024 marks 50 years since I was discovered singing the National Anthem at the National Finals Rodeo,” she continued in the statement. “I can’t think of a better way to celebrate that anniversary.”
Continuing the string of good news, on January 29 NBCUniversal confirmed that McEntire will be returning to television for the sitcom series, 17 years after her hit of the same name.
