Super Bowl Halftime Show Betting Props: Odds and Predictions

Super Bowl Halftime Show prop bets and predictions Usher

One of the most heavily anticipated events on the Super Bowl itinerary is the Halftime Show. Last year’s show was the most watched in Super Bowl history, with Rihanna drawing in 118.7 million viewers during her solo act. She broke a five-year performing hiatus while announcing a pregnancy, so how could the NFL go even bigger in 2024? Usher in….Usher! Known for his party beats, Allegiant Stadium could turn into a club during halftime of the big game. He has eight Grammys, nine Billboard No. 1s, and 18 top-10 hits to his legendary career, giving bettors plenty of options to choose from. Betting on the halftime show is a fun way to make some money, and we will break it all down below.

First Song

The first song needs to pump up the crowd and start off the show with some electricity. This is arguably the most popular halftime wager, along with the last song. “My Way” and “OMG” are gaining speed as the most popular choices to kick off the festivities. “Yeah!” is closing in with third-best odds, but it is doubtful Usher opens the show with a collaboration.

My Way +100 – OMG +145 – Yeah! +650 – DJ Got Us Fallin’ in Love +1000 – Love in This Club +1200

U Got it Bad +1800 – U Remind Me +1800 – Burn +2100

Will Usher Debut a New Song?

This is a bet that should be on everyone’s radar. Usher has a new album coming out called, “Coming Home.” It is set to be released on February 9th, two days before the Super Bowl, and he just released a new song on February, 2nd titled “Ruin”. With the eight-time Grammy winner gearing up to drop his new album, it is very likely he will debut a new song at the Super Bowl.

Yes -120 – No +100

Number of Collaborations Odds

Among Usher’s 18 top-10 hits, six songs feature other artists. In total, Lil Jon, Ludacris, Pitbull, will.i.am, Alicia Keys, and Young Jeezy feature on songs that Usher headlines. The former two perform on the same song, which affects this over/under total. But important to note, many people expected a handful of guest performances during Rihanna’s Super Bowl 57 halftime show, and she flew solo.

Over 2.5 songs -200

Under 2.5 songs +150

Number of Songs Performed During the Halftime Show

This is another very popular wager amongst bettors. The last time a Super Bowl halftime show performer went under 8.5 songs was in 2017 when Lady Gaga featured only seven songs. From 2010 to 2017, only Beyonce went over this total in 2013. There has been a real shift from performers singing full songs to doing more of a true medley since Jay-Z and Roc Nation began producing the show. Shakira and J.Lo combined for 15 songs, Dr. Dre and crew performed 11, The Weeknd performed nine, and Rihanna reached 11 total. Considering the amount of hits Usher has, I expect him to clear this number easily.

Over 8.5 songs -155

Under 8.5 songs +100

With the increase in sports wagering across the world, you can literally find everything and anything to bet on during the big game. Below are two more fun and popular wagers, but no statistical data supports which wager to make. Have fun and enjoy Super Bowl Sunday!

Special Guest Performer

Alicia Keys -550 – Post Malone -440 - Ludacris -250 – Lil Jon +100 – Pitbull +100 – will.i.am +158

Nicki Minaj +270 – Lil Wayne +550 – Taylor Swift +550 – 21 Savage +680

Usher Outfit Changes

Over 1.5 -140

Under 1.5 +110
