2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show Odds, Picks: Lil Wayne Early Favorite to Perform in New Orleans

Hometown rapper Lil Wayne is the opening favorite to perform by the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show odds from our best Super Bowl betting sites.

Though he's well known for his Green Bay Packers fandom, New Orleans-based rapper Lil Wayne is the betting favorite to perform by the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show odds when his hometown hosts the NFL's championship game next February.

The 2025 Super Bowl will be played on Sunday, Feb. 9 at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, LA. Though the matchup is far from set (couldn't be further, really), FanDuel Ontario is early to post NFL odds for who will be the halftime entertainment.

We've already made our 2025 Super Bowl predictions and will be constantly updating the Super Bowl odds over the next 12 months.

So, let's have a little fun with a look at the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show odds and our best prediction for who will perform!

2025 Super Bowl halftime show odds: Who will perform in New Orleans?

Favorite to perform 2025 Super Bowl halftime show

Lil Wayne (+250)

While Lil Wayne, or Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., is from New Orleans, he's known as a Packers fan. Could that prompt the NFL to look elsewhere with this game played at the home of the Saints?

Lil Wayne's latest mixtape - Tha Fix Before the VI - was released in September. Fans now await the scheduled release of two albums - Tha Carter VI and I Am Not a Human Being III  - in 2024. Those upcoming releases could put Lil Wayne in consideration, and it'll be important to watch those release dates. If one is moved back to early 2025, that could be a sign that he'll perform.

For now, I'd pass on these short odds for the favorite, as Lil Wayne's music and prior legal troubles don't necessarily cater to the broad audience of the Super Bowl.

Will Taylor Swift perform the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show?

Swift's opening +450 odds to perform the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show infer a 18.18% probability. While the pop megastar certainly reaches the universal audience of typical Super Bowl halftime shows, she reportedly declined an invitation to perform in 2024 amid her global "Eras Tour."

It's quite possible that Swift is too big for the Super Bowl, and the Pennsylvania native has little to tie her to New Orleans after rising to celebrity status as a country music artist in Nashville.

2025 Super Bowl halftime show prediction

Miley Cyrus (+2500)

Cyrus opened and was long listed as the favorite to perform the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show in Las Vegas before Usher was eventually chosen as a long-shot pick. Her "Flowers" album later won the Grammy for Record of the Year.

We're now getting much better odds on the 31-year-old Tennessee native. Cyrus would represent a break from the active streak of R&B and Hip-Hop artists performing the halftime show with her pop and country music stylings. There'd also be no shortage of collaboration potential, with past collabs including Dolly Parton, Ludacris, Britney Spears, Future, and Nelly.
