Miley Cyrus Tops Betting Odds for 2027 Super Bowl Halftime Show
Speculation is already swirling about who will headline the Super Bowl halftime show in 2027, with Miley Cyrus emerging as the clear favourite among bettors. This comes just days after Bad Bunny made history with his intermission performance at Super Bowl X, setting the stage for next year's event at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, scheduled for Valentine's Day.
FanDuel Releases Opening Odds
Fueling the predictions, gambling company FanDuel has released its sportsbook opening odds for the 2027 halftime show. The data reveals Miley Cyrus as the most favoured artist to receive the headlining spot, with odds of +310. The Grammy winner's name has been floated for the show for years, with fans noting her versatile discography that spans pop, country, and rock genres, appealing to a broad audience demographic.
Cyrus boasts an impressive track record of hits, with over a dozen songs entering the Billboard Hot 100. Her 2023 single "Flowers" peaked at number one for eight consecutive weeks, while "Wrecking Ball" topped the charts for three weeks upon its release in 2013. This extensive catalog and her dynamic performance style make her a strong contender for the high-profile slot.
Fan Reactions and Online Excitement
Fans online have expressed their enthusiasm at the possibility of Cyrus taking on the halftime show. One person wrote on social media platform X, "Honestly, this is long overdue." Another commented, "I hope she does it. She has hit songs that suit the vibe of the Super Bowl halftime show." A third added, "They have to go with a pop girl next year. It's time. Miley Cyrus has the catalog and is a great performer."
Other Contenders in the Running
Behind the former Hannah Montana star, FanDuel's bets give rapper Cardi B a good chance at taking the stage with +440 odds. Cardi B would be no stranger to the Super Bowl stage, having appeared as one of Bad Bunny's surprise celebrity guests in this year's show. Additionally, her relationship with New England Patriots receiver Stefon Diggs has made her a familiar presence in the NFL.
Also among the frontrunners is Taylor Swift, with +490 odds. Swift's name has been in the mix for the job ever since she began dating her fiancé, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, in 2023, adding to the buzz surrounding her potential involvement.
Additional Stars in the Betting Pool
Gamblers have also placed bets on a range of other stars, including:
- Lil Wayne
- A$AP Rocky
- Justin Bieber
- Ariana Grande
- Harry Styles
The NFL typically announces the next Super Bowl halftime show act in September, meaning fans have several months to wait before learning if their predictions are correct. Until then, the betting odds and fan speculation will continue to build anticipation for what promises to be another spectacular performance.
