The spotlight on the halftime show for Super Bowl LV was on The Weeknd.
Noted for his versatile vocal style, music production, and eccentric presentation, The Weeknd is often cited as an influence to contemporary music.
Among the world’s best-selling music artists, with over 75 million records sold, The Weeknd has won three Grammy Awards, five American Music Awards, nine Billboard Music Awards, two MTV Video Music Awards, nine Juno Awards, and has been nominated for an Academy Award. He holds several chart records, being the first artist to simultaneously hold the top three positions on the Billboard Hot R&B Songs chart with “Can’t Feel My Face”, “Earned It”, and “The Hills”. The Weeknd was awarded the Allan Slaight Award by Canada’s Walk of Fame.
Canada celebrated him on Super Bowl Sunday.
