At Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, Nevada, 68-year-old Reba McEntire stunned the audience with an incredible version of the National Anthem.

The country singer made a great start to the afternoon by enthusiastically belting out the heartfelt lyrics while donning a belt with a giant gold buckle in the front, black boots, glittery black leggings, and a shimmery silver/gold jacket over a black blouse.

Players from the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs enjoyed the last few minutes of the NFL's biggest game of the year together as well as a special song during the unforgettable occasion.

Not only did Reba leave a lasting impression on the Allegiant Stadium crowd, but Post Malone also sang "America the Beautiful" for the home crowd.

It showcased the amazing vocals of the gifted rapper and singer and was equally warmly acclaimed. Given her legendary status in the music industry, it is not surprising that Reba will be attending this year's Super Bowl.

With more than 50 award wins, including recognition from the ACM Awards, American Music Awards, People's Choice Awards, CMA Awards, GRAMMY Awards, and GMA Dove Awards, she is a member of the Hollywood Bowl and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Reba made news for making jokes about Taylor Swift and Chiefs star Travis Kelce, who have been dating since August 2023, before she dazzled at the Super Bowl.

The Reba actress acknowledged that she has a slight romantic crush on the singer, which makes her a little envious of her. "Oh, my gosh, I am so mad at her because I had a crush on him," Reba told TODAY on October 11, 2023.

"Now, I can't have a crush anymore because he's dating her."

She added that she "was so devastated" when she found out the two were an item and even hilariously called the athlete her "boyfriend that cheated on [her]."

"We were watching him play because I love the Chiefs, and I love [quarterback] Patrick [Mahomes], and I'd say, 'Oh, he's so cute. Oh, he's so cute,'" Reba also revealed. By we, she meant her and her actual boyfriend Rex Linn.

Not that Linn became jealous or anything.

The two met 1991 and reconnected with him while both were working on "Young Sheldon" nearly three decades later.

"Rex texted me and said, 'You're coming to LA? Let's have dinner,'" McEntire recounted. "I don't know what it was about it. ... I wanted to get in to see Rex so bad I could hardly stand it. We were inseparable."
