Lady Gaga kicked off Super Bowl 50 with a performance of the national anthem at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Cali dressed in a sparkling red suit and matching eyeshadow.
Gaga called the gig a “dream come true” in an interview with the NFL’s Nate Burleson that was published earlier this month. “I’ve always wanted to sing the national anthem at a major sporting event since I was a little girl,” she said. “And for it to be a Super Bowl…it is the ultimate.”
She joins a long list of pop stars—including Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey and Christina Aguilera—who have had the honors of singing before kickoff. Last year, Idina Menzel performed the song.
The performance kicks off a big month for Gaga: she’ll perform a David Bowie tribute at the Grammys on Feb. 15 and sing at the Oscars on Feb. 28 as well.
