Beyonce Knowles will perform at the half time show of the 2013 Super Bowl.

The "Love on Top" singer will be the musical act at the NFL Super Bowl XVLII, held in New Orleans on February 3 next year.

The Super Bowl is one of the biggest TV events, watched by an estimated 114 million people. This will mark the second time the singer has appeared at the Super Bowl, after she sung the national anthem in 2004 in her hometown of Houston when the New England Patriots defeated the Carolina Panthers.

Traditionally, Super Bowl performers are joined by special guests, and although nothing has been confirmed, fans will expect to see cameos from Beyonce's husband, rapper Jay-Z, and her former Destiny's Child bandmates Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams.

Jennifer Lopez and estranged husband Marc Anthony reunited on stage over the weekend.

The American Idol judge and the Latino singer - who announced their seven-year marriage was over last July - held hands as they appeared during the finale of the Q'Viva! The Chosen Live show at Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Events Center on Saturday.

The event was the live ending for their TV talent program and the former couple - who have four-year-old twins, Max and Emme, together - watched the talented finalists perform.

Despite their split, Jennifer and Marc looked close throughout the night and at one point they embraced each other on stage, much to the delight of the crowd. Jennifer - who is now dating backing dancer Casper Smart - and Marc have always vowed to make their split as amicable as possible for the sake of Max and Emme.

Adam Levine and Christina Aguilera have recorded a duet together.

The singer and the Maroon 5 frontman are set to unveil the track, "Moves Like Jagger," on talent show The Voice - in which they are both judges - on Tuesday. Adam explained it was "great" working with the 30-year-old beauty, and he admitted he's looking forward to debuting the song.

"We are excited to perform it for our fans on The Voice this Tuesday and on the road this summer. The guys and I recorded this track in Los Angeles last month and it was great getting to work with Christina on it as well."

Adam recently admitted the pair - who sit alongside Cee Lo Green and Blake Shelton on the TV show's panel - row "like brother and sister" on the show: "They fabricate a lot of that - a lot of that's reality television fodder. She's fine, we bicker like brother and sister."
