Beyonce joining Coldplay for Super Bowl show

Beyonce is taking the stage with pal Chris Martin when his band Coldplay performs at the Super Bowl halftime show in February (16).

The British rockers will be headlining the big gig in Santa Clara, California on 7 February (16), and bosses at Pepsi, the company sponsoring the show, have confirmed Coldplay will be joined by R&B star Beyonce.

Coldplay is expected to bring the Crazy In Love singer out for a live rendition of Hymn for the Weekend, the track she features on, on the the group's latest album, A Head Full of Dreams.

This won't be Beyonce's first time at the Super Bowl - in 2013, she headlined her own half-time show, which featured a surprise Destiny's Child reunion.

Meanwhile, sources tell Entertainment Tonight that Bruno Mars, who headlined the 2014 half-time show, is also expected to make an appearance with Coldplay.
