Beyoncé and Bruno Mars are this year’s 2017 TOP BET Awards nominees.

According BET's official website, Beyoncé was nominated for seven awards and Mars copped five noms. And not too far behind them are Chance the Rapper, Solange Knowles and Migos, with four nominations each.

The Super Bowl halftime show is a respite on the biggest night in American sports, a chance for sports fans to take a break and for others, its the biggest moment of the night to see their favorite artist perform.

This past Sunday, the NFL announced its halftime show performer for 2014, and it's none other than Bruno Mars.  

According the football association, "There will be more announcements in the upcoming weeks -- revealing some other special performers, but Bruno is the main attraction."

The 27 year old singer shared the photo above on his facebook page to announce the exciting news.  

We all know for several years there had been a string of older acts because of the now famous Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction.  I'm glad it's back to younger more relevant performers following Beyonce's 2013 performance.

See the announcement below.
