Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show Prop Bets

Previous Betting News

The Super Bowl is normally the most-watched event of the year. The Super Bowl isn’t just a football game, there is also an entertainment aspect to it for non-sports fans. The commercials are usually brand new and very entertaining, so those appeal to people who normally wouldn’t watch a football game. Another entertainment attraction other than the game itself is the halftime show. This year’s halftime show will feature hip-hop stars from the mid-to-late 1990s and the first two decades of the 2000s. Eminem, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, and Mary J. Blige will headline the halftime event. We may even see a surprise artist or two make an appearance.

Along with the halftime show come numerous prop bets. Some of the prop bets include which act will be the first to sing, speak, or rap, what song will be the first one performed, along numerous other ones. Let’s take a look at some of the Super Bowl Halftime Prop bets.

2022 Super Bowl Halftime Odds | NFL Betting

Who Will Be the First Artist to Sing, Rap, or Speak?

Right now the best odds belong to Dr. Dre at 2.30. Dre was a huge artist in the 1990s and is from the Los Angeles area. He had numerous huge hits, including one that many feel will kick off the halftime festivities. Next up is Snoop Dogg at 2.40. Snoop is also from the Los Angeles area and may be the most well-known hip-hop artist in the world. Eminem at 4.00, Mary J. Blige at 4.50, and Kendrick Lamar at 5.00 round out this prop.

What Will Be the First Song Performed?

Many feel that California Love by Dr. Dre will be lead off the halftime show. Since the Super Bowl is being played in Los Angeles, this would be the perfect anthem to lead off the show. The odds for this song are 1.91. Another popular choice by the oddsmakers is Next Episode by Snoop Dogg at 2.90. Forgot About Dre comes in at 7.00.

This one is a collaboration between Dr. Dre and Eminem. Kendrick Lamar’s Humble at 7.50 could be a sneaky selection. While Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Snoop Dogg are the nostalgic picks, Lamar is the most modern performer in this group, and he could get the nod to lead things off.

Another interesting prop bet is whether or not the late Tupac Shakur will appear via hologram. Tupac had a part in California Love, and everyone is fairly sure that this song will be a part of the show. Tupac is also a hip-hop icon, and he will more than likely make some sort of appearance during the show.

There are numerous other props that you can bet on for the halftime show. So if you’re not really interested in the game, and you’d still like to place some wagers, take a look at the halftime show, and you’ll be able to place numerous wagers. It should be a great show to watch!3

One of the most divisive parts of the Super Bowl, outside of the actual game itself, is the half-time show. There are some who love the spectacle and the musical artists on display, while others believe that it goes on too long and kills the momentum of the game. Whichever side you fall on, you have to know that Super Bowl half-time can be a positive experience, as you have the opportunity to pocket some extra money with a collection of different prop bets. Whether you like the musical act or not, you can feel good about things if you can pick some winners. Let’s break down some of the Super Bowl Halftime Props right now.

Super Bowl LV Halftime Betting Analysis

First Song Played

In case you weren’t already aware, it will be The Weeknd performing at the Super Bowl on Sunday. The first wager available has to do with the song that he will open with. Musical artists tend to do a medley of their biggest hits, so does that mean that Blinding Lights (+225) will be the first song he performs? It is certainly up there with the favorites, but the bookies have other ideas as to which song might be the first one heard at half-time. The favorite right now is Save Your Tears (+125), closely followed by Starboy (+150). Given the occasion, I might be willing to take a shot at Blinding Lights at a decent price.

Will Things Get Political?

With such a big audience tuning in, artists often use this platform to get a political message across to the viewing public. Will the Weeknd follow suit and mention a politician? There are three different options to choose from here. The first up is any mention of Donald Trump, with YES paying +700 and NO paying -2500. Joe Biden is also in the mention mix, with the YES to a mention paying +700 and the NO paying -1800. The Weeknd is from Toronto, Canada, so maybe he will mention Canada PM Justin Trudeau (YES +1200 and NO at -6000).

Clothing Wagers

One of the things that we routinely see during the half-time shoe are elaborate sets complete with costume changes. This is usually a given, but maybe you think that The Weeknd will stick with the outfit he wears from the off. If you don’t think he will change, you can wager on that at odds of +185. He is favored to do so, though, at odds of -280. If you really want to get into the specifics, you can wager on whether or not he will wear a Canadian Tuxedo, which is matching jeans and jean jacket. The YES for that one is at +350, while the NO is at -600.

Other Wagers

In the time of a pandemic, it is no surprise that you can wager on whether or not The Weeknd will test positive for COVID-19 before the show. The YES is a longshot at +1200, while the NO is at -6000.

Finally, you can wager on potential guests that might make an appearance. Kendrick Lamar is the favorite here at +175, but there are several other options available, too.

One of the great things about the Super Bowl, from a betting standpoint, is that there are an almost countless number of wagers available to you to play. Besides the usual straight up, spread, and point total wagers, there are hundreds of prop bets, not all of which have to do with the action taking place on the field.

Since we have covered the game from every angle possible, we thought it might be a good idea to dig a little deeper into those prop bets to see if we can have some fun. For the purposes of this piece, we are going to focus on the halftime show that will feature Shakira and Jennifer Lopez. Let’s look at some of the bets for the Halftime Show.

Super Bowl LIV Halftime Show Prop Bets

Halftime Performance Props

If we are being totally honest, neither of the singers performing in the Super Bowl LIV halftime show are particularly known for their vocal talents. Both of them will want to look their very best when performing to a massive global audience, so will they sing live or will they rely on lip syncing? You have the ability to wager a bet on that, although it does need to be a rather obvious lip sync error. If you are willing to predict than an error will be shown, you can get that at odds of +700. Zero lip sync errors comes in at -1500.

This Super Bowl LIV halftime show is all about the glitz and glamor, so you can definitely bet that we are going to see some costume changes. The question here, though, is how many? The focus on this prop bet is on Jennifer Lopez, with the O/U for her costume changes set at 2 ½. Given that the performers will be splitting stage time, there will be plenty of opportunity for Lopez to get some new gear on. I would be leaning towards the OVER at odds of -150.

With so many wardrobe changes, there is always the chance that there might be a wardrobe malfunction, like the one we saw with Janet Jackson. It seems very unlikely to me that we will see that, though, so the no malfunction option at odds of -2000 seems like a lock.

Random Super Bowl LIV Halftime Show Props

Some of the props that are available for the halftime show have nothing to do with the performance of Shakira and Jennifer Lopez. There is one that asks if either of them will be seen drinking a Pepsi at any point, which seems like a bit of a longshot. That said, with so much ad money being spent in the big game, you just never know.

Another fun looking prop bet concerns Jennifer Lopez’s current love interest. Lopez is dating former MLB star Alex Rodriguez, who will almost certainly be at the game. The question is whether the TV cameras will seek him out while J-Lo is performing on stage. If you think that he will show up on screen during her performance, you can get that at pretty decent odds of +200.
