... is for Anthem do the BACKSTREET BOYS , THE U . S . AIR FORCE ACADEMY CHORALE , CHER , CHERYL LADD , KATHIE LEE GIFFORD and HARRY CONNICK all have in common ? They ’ ve all performed the

U . S . national anthem at the Super Bowl . Who will perform “ The Star Spangled Banner ” this year ? At this point ( mid-December ), it ’ s anybody ’ s guess , but it ’ s said that based upon her stirring and magnificent performance of the anthem last year , Lady Gaga scored the Super Bowl halftime show this year . The last time Houston hosted the game , in 2004 , Beyoncé sang the anthem . Maybe we ’ ll see a repeat performance ?
