The Frozen singer will lend her powerful pipes to football’s biggest night on February 1. Menzel will be joined by John Legend who will sing "America the Beautiful." Katy Perry and Lenny Kravitz are headlining the half-time show. The Super Bowl airs on NBC.

No word yet if John Travolta will reprise his role as the guy who spectacularly butchered Menzel’s name during her introduction.
