Mary J. Blige isn’t the only superstar on the ‘For My Fans Tour‘ looking to headline a future Super Bowl Halftime Show; just ask Ne-Yo!

While hot on the promo trail for the ‘Fans Tour’ as well as his own musical efforts, Ne-Yo (born Shaffer Smith) dropped by a recent episode of ‘Big Boy TV’ to dish on everything from his professional happenings to the ongoing social media chatter around his polyamorous relationship.
As Big Boy praised Smith’s massive catalog of hits (referring to the singer-songwriter as “Super Bowl worthy”), the ‘Closer‘ singer responded to the compliment by suggesting Chris Brown should be closer to headlining a halftime show than he is.
“With zero ego I say this, I feel like Chris [Brown] should get the next one definitely. Then, I’ll go after Chris,” Ne-Yo said before relaying, “Chris deserves that now!”
Smith’s sentiment echoes one delivered earlier this month by hitmaking rapper Tyga who argued Brown should co-headline the spectacle with Ciara.
While it’s already been announced that Super Bowl LX is slated for Santa Clara, California, on February 8, 2026, the headliner of its halftime show likely won’t be revealed until Fall 2025.
At writing, Chris has not publicly responded to calls for him to rock the big game with his brigade of hits; instead, he’s launching his own global jaunt – ‘Breezy Bowl‘ – which is set to kick off later this year.


fk’em both for real. chris doesn’t have the catalog, just hood anthems and neyo doesn’t have the stage presence.
…nor the catalog for that matter.
He literally only has 1 classic album and then 2 albums after that of which had stand out tracks that came and went but nothing memorable. NeYo is washed and needs to sit his poly ass down somewhere. Not one person checking for this fool for a half time show in 2025 I promise.
Nah CB def got the catalogue what are you sn0rting? Rihanna not going to give you a*** so relax.
To the clown under your comment what does poly have to do with it? These are consenting women. Stop hating. 11:11 is an amazing album. Just because you got your panties stuck in 2009 doesnt validate your points on a blog lmao
#BREEZYBOWL2025
Lol Ne-Yo is that you?
Come up for air sometime from sucking Ne-Yos d**k so hard and sit your lame a** down. Again, nobody is checking for Ne-Yo or any album he has released since 2006. Please reference one hit from Ne-Yos recent albums that people are buzzing over. I’ll wait but I might die while in holding because you can’t. Now move around pu**y and go play with your mother or even go play with yourself but don’t play with me.
Why on Earth should Ne-Yo Headline the Super Bowl? Man, your time was 13 years ago…
Now this I agree with . Even tho I did love Neyo’s nonfiction album (his best work), he does not have the star power to headline a sb
F*cking bafoon…they literally reiterated the same thing myself and “yep!” stated and your dumba** got mad because we were honest but yet here you are on another poster contradicting yourself because it sounds like something you like to hear. Ha! The jokes write themselves. Congrats, you’re now a Bozo
Delusional is real. Both only can be the special guests of Rihanna’s part 2 Super Bowl halftime show 💅🏽
Superbowl is still a thing?
