Miley Cyrus could headline the Super Bowl 2025 halftime show. However, fans want to see Lil Wayne.

Cyrus was close to making her Super Bowl debut at Super Bowl 2023. There was even a petition, hoping that Cyrus would get the nod.

This is a petition asking the NFL and Pepsi to select Miley Cyrus as the Super Bowl 57 halftime show performer. She has classic hits from all genres- ranging from country to pop to rap to rock to indie music. Imagine the fun, flare, and musical prowess she can bring to the Super Bowl. 

the petition read per Change.org

Unfortunately for countless Miley fans, the opportunity ended up going to Usher. Naturally, like every year, fans want to know who will keep them entertained in between the two halves of football. Dov Klieman shared that Miley Cyrus could get her lucky break this time around.

Fans demand to see Lil Wayne headline the Super Bowl 2025 halftime show instead of Miley Cyrus

Many want Lil Wayne for obvious reasons. He is a longtime connoisseur of football and has appeared on shows like Undisputed as a guest analyst.

A long-time Green Bay Packers fan, Wayne’s more in tune with the gridiron. Yet the elephant in the room is the location of the 2025 Super Bowl. The NFL announced it will take place on Sunday, February 9th, at the Ceaser Super Dome in Louisiana, which happens to be Wayne’s hometown.

Bruh ain’t nobody wanna hear her buy herself flowers 🤦🏽‍♂️🐬🆙

If Miley does bag the deal, then she has several hits to choose from for the occasion. An avid fan who has followed the 31-year-old’s career from a former Disney actor to a singer/composer has heard Wrecking Ball, Flower, 7 Things, and Can’t Be Tamed. One can assume these will feature in the lineup of songs.
