Of course Jay Z couldn’t sit back while his younger counterparts enjoyed the festivities of Super Bowl Weekend. Nope. Instead, Hov will headline DirecTV’s Super Saturday Night party during Super Bowl weekend on Saturday, Feb. 1. The invite-only event will take place at DirecTV’s SuperFan Stadium at New York’s Hudson River Park Pier 40.
The Jay Z booking follows his surprise appearance during Timberlake’s comeback performance at the 2013 party for the duo’s single “Suit & Tie.” Sources tell Billboard that Beyonce is expected to join her husband on stage for at least one song at the DirecTV party, as hosts of other Super Bowl parties were told both artists were already exclusively booked by another event that week. “Obviously, we would love to have her, but no comment on the rumors,” said a DirecTV spokeswoman.
Hov joins an exceptionally popular night of parties on Feb. 1 that already includes Drake’s headlining slot at Revolt TV’s party at the Time Warner Cable Studios in the Meatpacking District and Kendrick Lamar’s concert for Maxim’s annual bash at Espace in midtown. And earlier in the day on Feb. 1, DirecTV will also host its annual daytime Beach Bowl Party.
