Although the R&B king will play for free for 13 minutes during the big game (don't expect a duet with Taylor Swift), the true reward will be when he drops his new album on the same day.

Thirteen years have passed since Usher appeared out of nowhere to sing his smash song "OMG" as a special guest during the Super Bowl XLV halftime show in Arlington, Texas. The two-minute routine featured a big finish as he jumped over will.i.am's head and split. He recently stated on Good Morning America, "I think ever since that day, I've had it in my head that I wanted to go back to the stage."
