Ice Spice and Taylor Swift made quite the entrance at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards.
Rapper Ice Spice created a buzz at the 2024 Super Bowl, arriving with Taylor Swift before the game. This sparked speculation that she may surprise everyone by appearing as a guest during the halftime show.
The musicians have been spending a lot of time together lately. Ice Spice joined Swift’s Eras Tour to perform her part in the hit song “Karma,” and they also reunited at the Grammy Awards last week.
Ice Spice’s arrival before the February 11 game between the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs raised questions about her potential involvement in Usher’s highly anticipated halftime show. However, it remains unclear which other stars might join Usher on stage.
The rapper garnered a lot of attention when she walked into Allegiant Stadium with Taylor Swift and Swift’s close friend, actress Blake Lively, just over two hours before the start of the game. The video of their arrival quickly went viral, leading to speculation about Ice Spice’s possible role in Usher’s halftime show.
There was much anticipation surrounding Swift’s arrival, as she flew from a show in Tokyo to Las Vegas to support her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Usher, a renowned artist himself, expressed his excitement about the show, stating, “It will definitely be an event.” With special guests and the possibility of new songs, the halftime show promised to be a memorable experience.
Usher, who has collaborated with numerous A-list artists throughout his career, including Beyoncé and Justin Bieber, has yet to record a track with Ice Spice. However, Ice Spice has always admired Usher and even confessed that he was her childhood crush during an appearance on the “Close Friends Only” podcast in December.
