The 36-year-old singer will take to the stage at the American football event on February 4 for the third time, meaning he will clock up more appearances at the National Football League (NFL) showpiece than any other individual entertainer.

Justin also confirmed his performance at the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minnesota on his Twitter account via a short clip alongside talk show host Jimmy Fallon.

In the skit, Justin asks Jimmy if he has the time and he replies with the same question to which the โ€˜Canโ€™t Stop the Feelingโ€™ hitmaker says: โ€œI do have the time.โ€
Jimmy then says: โ€œYou do half time?โ€

Justin replied: โ€œI do half time.โ€

The pair repeated the same questions and answers a few times before an excited Jimmy asked: โ€œYouโ€™re doing the Halftime Show at the Super Bowl?โ€

Justin pulled a face and looked at the camera before shouting, โ€œIโ€™m doing the Halftime Showโ€, while he and Jimmy jumped around the room.

He captioned the clip: โ€œI DO have the time. Half the timeโ€ฆ#PepsiHalftime #SBLII @Pepsi @NFL @JimmyFallon @FallonTonight.โ€

Justinโ€™s last Super Bowl performance was a controversial one in 2004 when he ripped off part of Janet Jacksonโ€™s outfit, exposing her breast for a brief moment.

This news comes following months of speculation that the โ€˜SexyBackโ€™ star โ€“ who has two-year-old son Silas with his wife Jessica Biel โ€“ was wanted by the NFL to perform at the event.

A source recently said: โ€œThis is who theyโ€™ve wanted for a long time. Heโ€™s the guy.โ€

In August, former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo said it would be a โ€œhome runโ€ if Justin were to perform at the Super Bowl.

He said: โ€œOh, I love Justin, I think heโ€™s a great guy. I think if they got Justin, it would be a home run. I think heโ€™s one of the rare guys that everyone thinks is great and heโ€™s super talented.โ€

Super Bowl LII will take place on February 4 in Minneapolis.
