  While Beyoncé has performed at the Super Bowl two times--2013 solo and 2018 alongside Bruno Mars and Coldplay--no one would mind if she were to take the stage again. In fact, if she were to grace the stage for a third time, she would be joining latin singer Gloria Estefan and Justin Timberlake in their exclusive three timer Super Bowl club. Estefan and Timberlake are the only artists that have performed three times at the Super Bowl. In 1992, 1995, and 1999, Estefan graced the stage and in 2001, 2004 and 2018 Timberlake performed. If she were to perform on the stage one more time, she would be the only Black performer to have performed at the Super Bowl three times.
