In a press release, actor and singer Jennifer Lopez said: "Ever since I saw Diana Ross fly off into the sky at the Halftime Show, I dreamed of performing at the Super Bowl," reports CNN.

The 50-year-old added that the performance is even more special not only because it's NFL's 100th anniversary, but also because she is performing with a fellow Latina, Shakira. "I can't wait to show what us girls can do on the world's biggest stage, she stated in the press release."

The event is even more special for Shakira who will be celebrating her 43rd birthday on the day. She wished herself an advanced happy birthday while sharing the news on Twitter as well.

"I'm so honored to be taking on one of the world's biggest stages in the company of a fellow female artist to represent Latinos and Latinas from the U.S. and all over the world -- and to top it off, on my birthday! This is a true American dream and we are going to bring the show of a lifetime!," the Columbian singer stated in a press release.

The "Hips Don't Lie" singer soon found herself trending on Twitter on number one position after the announcement. Thanking fans for their support, the pop-star wrote, "Wow! I never expected such an amazing global response! Thank you so much for your support. It means the world to me. #SuperBowlLIV."

Meanwhile, Fox Sports also shared the news on Twitter along with a short interview of the stars talking about working together and how much the show means to them. J.Lo said she loves that the Super Bowl has "2 women performers this year, that too two Latinos".
