Babyface performed “America the Beautiful” on Sunday to help open the 2023 Super Bowl on Sunday in Glendale, Arizona. The award-winning artist wore a classic black suit with floral details while singing.
Babyface’s suit consisted of a black jacket with sharp lapels and matching straight-leg pants. A matte black flower was attached to one side of his collar, adding a playful touch to his timeless ensemble.
He wore a shimmering chainlink necklace and opted to wear nothing underneath his jacket.
For accessories, the singer embraced his signature look, wearing a pair of black sunglasses. While dazzling the crowd with his acoustic performance, Babyface toted a guitar, which featured paintings of the American flag, blue flowers and the NFL logo.
