Grammy-winning American pop superstar Lady Gaga did not disappoint millions of fans and football enthusiasts around the world as she delivered a highly energized performance during the much-awaited Super Bowl halftime show Monday.
Gaga, dressed in a glittery silver outfit, kicked off her performance by jumping off the roof of the NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas.
About 300 Intel-powered drones also danced in the sky and formed into an American flag at one point of the performance.

Before singing a medley of her biggest hits in the past 15 years, Gaga sang a rendition of “God Bless America” and “This Land Is Your Land.” She also quoted a line from the pledge of allegiance: “One Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
Among the hits she performed were “Just Dance,” “Poker Face,” “Bad Romance,” “Born This Way,” “Telephone,” and “Million Reasons” from her latest Album Joanne.
In the “Born This Way” part, instead of starting with the chorus, Gaga chose to sing lyrics of her 2011 hit from the verse: “No matter gay, straight, or bi, Lesbian, transgendered life/I’m on the right track baby/I was born to survive.”
Gaga ended her performance with a shoutout to her parents and an epic mic drop. YG
Incredible performance from my friend @LadyGaga. You amaze me — and not just onstage. Proud to work with you to end sexual assault. #ItsOnUs pic.twitter.com/ZOva2lpAOZ
