The star, who has taken a break from performing following her near-life-threatening overdose in July 2018, announced the news that she’ll sing at the Feb. 2 game on her Instagram Thursday. The NFL and FOX -- which is airing the Super Bowl -- also announced that she’ll sing on game day at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

Lovato broke her silence on her overdose a month after the incident in a since-deleted Instagram post, writing in August 2018: “I have always been transparent about my journey with addiction.
