Official: History Is in Motion? Reba McEntire & Dolly Parton Super Bowl 2026 Halftime Show Rumor Debunked
A reunion fans never stopped hoping for is finally real—and the moment is already echoing across generations? Not quite.
Country music enthusiasts lit up social media in early 2026 with viral posts claiming Reba McEntire and Dolly Parton would co-headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. Headlines promised a historic pairing of the “Queen of Country” (Reba) and the beloved Dolly, blending decades of hits like “Fancy,” “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” and “Islands in the Stream” in a generational celebration.
Unfortunately, this exciting “announcement” is not official—it’s misinformation. The actual headliner for Super Bowl LX is Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny, announced by the NFL, Roc Nation, and Apple Music on September 28, 2025. The reggaeton and Latin trap artist, known for global hits and cultural impact, will make history as the first primarily Spanish-language solo headliner.
The Reba-Dolly rumor appears to stem from AI-generated content and engagement-farming posts, similar to other debunked 2026 Super Bowl claims (like fabricated tributes or artist refusals). No credible sources—NFL announcements, artist statements, or official channels—support Reba or Dolly performing the halftime show. Reba continues her work on Happy’s Place and The Voice, while Dolly focuses on Threads: My Songs in Symphony orchestral shows and philanthropy.
The duo’s real collaborations—like their 1993 Grammy-winning “Does He Love You” duet and joint appearances—fuel genuine fan dreams. A Super Bowl stage would be epic, echoing past country moments (Reba sang the national anthem in 2024). But for 2026, it’s Bad Bunny bringing the energy, with pregame performers including Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile, and Coco Jones.
While the rumor isn’t real, the hope persists—country queens like Reba and Dolly deserve that spotlight someday. For now, Super Bowl LX promises cultural fireworks from Bad Bunny.
