I want to, more than anything, create a moment that everyone that's watching will never forget,\" she said in a press conference Thursday (2 February) in Houston.Gaga wouldn't reveal what songs she would sing, how many costumes she'll wear or any staging details, but promised a \"tremendously athletic\" show and no reappearance of her infamous meat dress.When Gaga debuted in 2008, her sound was a mix of electronic, dance and pop sounds, including the hits \"Poker Face\" and \"Just Dance.\" Her latest album though, \"Joanne,\" delves into country and acoustic rock territory, and she said she plans to perform songs from her entire catalog.The 30-year-old singer, who sang the national anthem at last year's Super Bowl, was nominated for the best original song Oscar last year and won a Golden Globe for her role on the FX series \"American Horror Story.\" Gaga said she considers being asked to be the halftime headliner is due to her fans, affectionately known as \"little monsters.\"\"Essentially, that kid that couldn't get a seat at the cool kids table and that kid who was kicked out of the house because his mom and dad didn't accept him for who he was? That kid is going to have the stage for 13 minutes,\" she said. \"And I'm excited to give it to them.\"The performance at the NRG Stadium will also feature Tony Bennett, who Gaga called a \"tremendously wise man.\" Gaga and Bennett recorded the 2014 album of duets, \"Cheek to Cheek,\" which won a Grammy — the sixth for Gaga. They also launched a successful tour.The showdown between the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons airs Sunday on Fox. In addition to Gaga, three original cast members of the Tony Award-winning Broadway hit \"Hamilton\" will sing \"America the Beautiful\" during pregame festivities and Luke Bryan will perform the national anthem.Houston, 2 February 20171.

SOUNDBITE (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: (Reporter: \"Are you going to make any kind of statements during the performance?\") \"Well, I don't know if I will succeed in unifying America. You're going to have to ask America when it's over. But the only statements that I'll be making during the halftime show are the ones that I've been consistently making throughout my career. I believe in a passion for inclusion. I believe in the spirit of equality and the spirit of this country as one of love and compassion and kindness. So my performance will uphold those philosophies.\"4. Terry Bradshaw presents an autographed football to Lady Gaga's mother with UPSOUND (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: \"You know, my mom was head cheerleader at her college. And she is trying really hard not to squeal right now.\"5. SOUNDBITE (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: (Reporter: \"You're known for your elaborate costume changes. How many costume changes will you try to cram into your 13 minutes? And also – on your Instagram today, you Instagrammed a little 'b' on one of your posts. Is that a hint to someone who could show up during your performance?\") \"Oh boy, do you guys read into everything? Well, I don't like to use the word 'cram' when it comes to fashion. Because, you know. But I don't want to give away also how many costume changes I'm doing. We will be doing some very interesting and exciting stuff during the show. And I'm excited for you to see it.\"6. Wide Lady Gaga speaks at press conference7. SOUNDBITE (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: \"You know, Beyoncé – I was actually with her the last halftime show that she did. And she always is very inspiring and gives great advice. She's a very focused and genuine performer. I have sent her flowers since I heard of her amazing new news on the way. So I'm excited about her new child. And I'm going to be taking the spirit of many performers with me on that stage when I go up there. I'm grateful to have wonderful women in this business that are supportive of me.\"8. Close halftime show signage9. SOUNDBITE (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: \"I will say that it is a tremendously athletic show. And it is something that we really talked about when we were creating the halftime experience. I mentioned that I thought it was important for us to consider high adrenaline. When you're watching football, you're watching guys crash into each other, you're watching some real strategizing happening. It's a pretty intense situation. And I didn't want the halftime show to take a dip. So it's going to be a good time.\"10. SOUNDBITE (English) Andrea Corden/James Corden's sister: \"We are the Corden sisters from 'The Late Late show with James Corden.' And we've been sent on a mission by the big dog that we had to try and make you laugh. So here's the first one. So we've come with a couple of jokes. So first one for you Lady Gaga is -- how does Lady Gaga like her steak? 'Raw raw raw raw raw.'\"11. SOUNDBITE (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: \"I'd say one of the things I'm most excited about for this halftime show – as much as it is a great moment for me in my life – I really feel like it wasn't given to me. It was given to them. So essentially, that kid that couldn't get a seat at the cool kids table and that kid that was kicked out of the house because his mom and dad didn't accept him for who he was -- that kid is going to have the stage for 13 minutes. And I'm excited to give it to them.\"12. Wide Lady Gaga at press conference13. SOUNDBITE (English) Lady Gaga/Recording artist: \"I am going to have to say that that preparation for this show is the show business version of the athlete. We have our own set of criteria that we go through. Myself and my dancers have been training for months on this. For two months, we dedicated our time to creating the story of the show, creating the musical score. And then we created the set -- what it would look like. Then we choreographed the actual dance routine, then we choreographed the pyrotechnics. Additionally to all that, we go through an extensive amount of training so that I can sing and dance at the same time for the show -- for 13 minutes. What I would say is that what you are watching at the halftime show – it's not easy. And I say that because I want young people at home that are watching, when they see it, if you have a dream to be something big, you should go for it. But you've got to give it everything you've got. You've got to wake up and you've got to eat it, breathe it, see it, every second of the day. And if you do that, you might be lucky enough one day to wake up and be playing the halftime show.\"14.
