The Weeknd has officially kicked off the 2021 Super Bowl Halftime Show on a high note. Not that fans would expect anything less from his highly anticipated performance considering he previously revealed he put his own money—$7 million, to be exact—into the production.
All eyes were on the 30-year-old star, whose real name is Abel Tesfaye, on Sunday, Feb. 7. Whether you were at home or one of the lucky few to attend the NFL game in-person, the “Save Your Tears” singer most certainly stole the show.
The musician got people out of their seats with his futuristic-looking set. Looking suave with his signature get-up (a glimmering red blazer and a black button-down shirt with matching slacks), he kicked things off with his chart-topping tune, “Starboy” and quickly crooned to “The Hills.”
The Weeknd also performed “I Can’t Feel My Face,” “I Feel It Coming,” “Save Your Tears” and “Earned It.”
