We won’t know who will perform at the Super Bowl 61 Halftime Show for several months. But it hardly means there won’t be rumors.

The controversy surrounding Bad Bunny’s record-breaking performance in February hasn’t quite left the news cycle. But once the Puerto Rican’s performance was over, speculation over the next halftime artist was widespread

Fans have been looking forward to the next show for weeks now, although it’s almost a year away.

It’s been rumored that the NFL is considering Korean pop group BTS as the 2027 headliners.

“The NFL is in talks to let BTS, a Korean-pop group, perform at the Super Bowl LXI halftime show,” parody X account Daily Noud shared on Friday.


“Super Bowl halftime shows are the new geopolitical stage, K-pop bridging continents while football bridges fandoms. Imagine the analytics on streaming spikes after this,” someone wrote in the comments.

“Let them cook,” said another.

“NFL is in the kitchen the past 2 years og,” one user claimed.

Super Bowl 61 Halftime Show Rumor The Result Of A Billboard Poll

While the rumor comes from a parody account, they didn’t pull it out of thin air.

A poll saw the Korean band rake in 85 percent of the votes after Billboard.com asked readers who should perform at the next Halftime Show last month.

BTS is expected to have a massive year leading up to Super Bowl 61 and could follow a potential notable Grammys night with a Super Bowl performance, much like Kendrick Lamar and Bad Bunny over the past two years.

Fans have also been looking forward to a Taylor Swift performance, but the pop sensation is unlikely to headline in 2027 following Travis Kelce’s decision to return to the Chiefs.

Kelce signed a one-year deal with Kansas City this week, crediting his fiancée for motivating him.

NFL sideline reporter Melanie Collins is turning heads this week—not for her game-day coverage, but for her impressive fitness routine. As the 2025 NFL season approaches, Collins is already in peak shape, and she’s not shy about sharing her journey with fans.

Collins, who has been with CBS Sports since 2018, recently posted a workout video on Instagram that quickly went viral. The clip features her at The Tox in Nashville, where she took on the intense 60-minute Master Tox class. Dressed in a stylish all-blue fitness outfit, Collins powered through the session, showing off her dedication and athleticism.

“The 60-minute Master Tox treatment will rid your body of inflammation, leave your skin glowing and your muscles toned! Final result at the end,” she wrote in her caption, giving followers a glimpse into her health and wellness routine.

Fans were quick to react, flooding the comments section with praise, admiration, and a bit of envy. Many noted how Collins seemed to effortlessly combine her busy career with a commitment to fitness, inspiring others to step up their own routines.

Collins’ workout clip comes at a time when NFL personalities are increasingly sharing more of their personal lives and wellness journeys with fans. Her transparency and positive energy have made her a favorite among viewers, both on and off the field.

With the NFL season just a month away, Collins is clearly ready for the long days and high-energy coverage ahead. If her workout routine is any indication, she’ll be bringing the same intensity and glow to the sidelines this fall.

Collins Will Be Back On The Sidelines Soon

It’s been a long time since she’s been on NFL sidelines, working alongside play-by-play voice Kevin Harlan and analyst Trent Green. Before that, she cut her teeth covering college football and basketball on CBS Sports Network. She’s also spent time on ESPN, filling in for SportsNation and First Take.

 

But Collins isn’t just a familiar face on Sundays. Her resume includes the Winter Olympics, FIFA World Cup, Super Bowl, NBA Finals, World Series, you name it. She was also the face of Yahoo! Sports and hosted a few shows on the Golf Channel along the way.

This September, she’s set to open the season on the West Coast, covering the Houston Texans vs. Los Angeles Rams matchup. In Week 2, she’ll be reporting from the sidelines again, this time for the Denver Broncos vs. Indianapolis Colts game.

Collins knows how to get more attention each season. As she’s ready, fit, focused, and already trending, it seems that it will be a bit easier for her this time.
