Beyonce to perform on Super Sunday

NEW YORK -- All the single ladies will be watching the upcoming Super Bowl along with football lovers. That's because Beyonce is the halftime show performer.
The singer appeared to confirm the news on her Tumblr page Tuesday afternoon, as she posted a picture of herself sporting eye black where "Feb. 3" is written on one and "2013" on the other. The Super Bowl is set for Feb. 3, 2013.
Earlier Tuesday a source familiar with the Super Bowl told The Associated Press the Grammy-winning diva will take the stage at the halftime show at the Superdome in New Orleans. The source spoke on condition of anonymity because that person wasn't authorized to publicly reveal the information.
Beyonce, whose pop and R&B hits include Crazy in Love, Irreplaceable and Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It), has won 16 Grammy Awards. The 31-year-old sang the national anthem at the 2004 Super Bowl in her hometown of Houston when the New England Patriots defeated the Carolina Panthers.
Madonna performed at halftime at this year's Super Bowl in February.
