The Kansas City Chiefs staged a comeback to defeat the San Francisco 49ers in an exciting overtime game, securing their third Vince Lombardi Trophy in five years.
Although the Chiefs‘ victory was impressive, music’s two biggest female solo artists, not to mention Usher, stole the show at Super Bowl LVIII.
