Reba considers it a great privilege to have been invited to perform the National Anthem at the NFL Super Bowl.
She expressed her excitement during an interview with People magazine. “It’s not about me, you know.” It’s about the dedication and effort of all those who have worked tirelessly to reach the Super Bowl, and my role is to evoke a sense of patriotism. I will be singing not only for the performers and players on the field, but also for everyone who has dedicated themselves to preserving our freedom and striving for peace on earth,” she expressed. “It’s not about me.” I’m merely the vessel and the conduit through which the melody flows.”
