In a bold move that’s shaking up the entertainment world, Turning Point USA has unveiled plans for The All-American Halftime Show, set to air opposite the 2026 Super Bowl halftime performance. The announcement confirmed that rising country powerhouse Ella Langley and chart-topping sensation Jelly Roll will headline the event. Their mission is simple but daring — to bring heart, honesty, and soul back to America’s biggest night in music.

The duo’s performance is being described as “a celebration of faith, family, and freedom,” a statement of values often missing from mainstream pop spectacles. Both Langley and Jelly Roll have built loyal followings by speaking truth through their songs and stories. Together, they aim to deliver a raw, emotional set that cuts deeper than pyrotechnics and choreography ever could.
Organizers say this alternative halftime event will highlight “real soul and real strength” — not through glamour, but through conviction. “It’s not about fame,” one spokesperson explained. “It’s about heart — and the heart of America still beats strongest when it believes in something bigger than itself.”
Fans are already responding with excitement across social media. Some are calling the show “the real halftime performance,” while others are dubbing it “a return to authenticity.” The announcement has sparked debates, too, as audiences wonder whether this grassroots show could actually rival — or even eclipse — the official NFL spectacle.
Ella Langley, known for her fierce vocals and Southern grit, says she’s honored to represent the everyday Americans who inspire her songs. “We’re not here to compete — we’re here to connect,” she told reporters. Jelly Roll echoed the sentiment, promising a night full of spirit and sincerity. “This isn’t just music,” he said. “It’s testimony.”

The All-American Halftime Show will be broadcast live from Nashville, a fitting backdrop for two artists who blend gospel soul with country heart. Production teams are promising intimate storytelling moments mixed with high-energy, stadium-ready performances. Behind the scenes, the atmosphere is reportedly electric — equal parts rebellion and revival.
As the countdown to Super Bowl Sunday begins, one thing is certain: this year, the nation will have two halftime shows — one powered by glitz, and another powered by grit. Whether you tune in for spectacle or spirit, Ella Langley and Jelly Roll are ready to remind America what real soul sounds like.
