Pop singer Lady Gaga will headline the Super Bowl halftime show in February, the National Football League said on Thursday.

The six-time Grammy Award winner known for songs such as "Bad Romance" and "Born This Way," will take the stage on Feb 5 in Houston, the NFL said in a statement.

This will be Gaga's second time performing on the Super Bowl stage, after having sang the US national anthem at the NFL's championship game last February in San Francisco.
