Martina Mcbride,toby keith :Martina McBride has been tapped to perform the national anthem prior to Sunday’s AFC Championship Game as the Pittsburgh Steelers play host to the New York Jets.
The powerhouse vocalist has been a good luck charm for the NFL team in the past, and the Steelers hope she will be again for this weekend’s game, which will decide who heads to the Super Bowl. “Martina is 2-0, and we hope she brings the magic to stay undefeated,” declares the Steelers Marketing Manager John Wodarek.
Martina, who is a self-professed football fan, is thrilled to hit the field prior to Sunday’s game. “Singing our national anthem is always an honor,” says Martina. “I will always remember singing the anthem in Pittsburgh two years ago for the playoff game. It’s amazing to be there in the middle of all those football fans and all that excitement, I can’t wait!”
Martina is currently working on her 11th studio album, which should be released later this year.
The AFC Championship Game will be broadcast live from Heinz Field on Sunday, January 23 beginning at 6:30 PM ET on CBS. The game gets even more countrified at halftime, as Joe Nichols has been tapped to perform at the AFC halftime show.
