Justin Bieber Debuts Massive Back Tattoo During Grammys 2026 Performance
Just shout whenever, and Justin Bieber will be there.
The “Love Yourself” singer reunited with Ludacris onstage at Sports Illustrated’s SI The Party in Daly City, Calif., Feb. 7, moments after the rapper performed a solo rendition of 2010 collaboration “Baby.”
“Make some noise for my brother Justin Bieber,” Ludacris, 48, told attendees at the pre-Super Bowl event as Justin, 31, made his way to the stage from the audience, as seen in a video obtained by People. “Hell yeah man, make some f--king noise. I haven’t seen him in forever.”
After the two shared a handshake and a lengthy hug, Justin—who shares son Jack Blues Bieber, 17 months, with wife Hailey Bieber—jumped back into the crowd as Ludacris exclaimed, “Careful, man.”
While Justin opted to cheer Ludacris on from the stands, he did hit the stage at the 2026 Grammy Awards days earlier, delivering a (literally) stripped-down performance of his song “Yukon” during his first appearance at the ceremony in four years.
Of course, Ludacris isn’t the only music superstar giving football fans a weekend to remember. Bad Bunny is set to headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show during the Feb. 8 faceoff between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, and while he hasn’t shared specifics regarding his highly-anticipated set, he teased that the production is “going to be a huge party.”

“I want to bring to the stage, of course, a lot of my culture,” the Puerto Rican hitmaker said during a Feb. 5 press conference. “But...I don’t want to give any spoilers. It’s going to be fun.”
And the 31-year-old is making sure to savor the excitement of his historic gig, which will make him the first Super Bowl Halftime Show headliner to perform primarily in Spanish.
“I’m processing and taking one day at a time and living,” he continued. “I'm excited about this performance.”
