Coco Jones kicked off the 2026 Super Bowl with a touchdown homage.
After all, the singer gave a soulful rendition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” ahead of the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks hitting the field Feb. 8 at Levi’s Stadium.
As Coco sang the hymn, often referred to as the Black national anthem, she paid tribute to the late Whitney Houston with her showstopping look. She stepped out in a white, cropped zip-up athletic jacket adorned with a red stripe alongside the chest and her right arm. She paired it with a high-low skirt featuring a billowing peplum addition.
For the 28-year-old, the “I Will Always Love You” singer’s tracksuit ensemble at the 1991 Super Bowl while performing the “Star Spangled Banner” was her inspiration, with the help of designer Karl Kani.
“I’m really excited for people to see those resemblances,” she told Entertainment Tonight ahead of the game. “Karl and I, I had him help me to design this. He’s the godfather of hip-hop and fashion. I’m excited for him to get to have his moment with this.”
