Lady Gaga will headline the 2017 Super Bowl halftime show. The superstar tweeted the news Thursday evening.

Giving a nod to her latest single “Perfect Illusion”, Gaga wrote on Twitter, “It's not an illusion. The rumors are true. This year's Super Bowl goes Gaga!”

This Super Bowl won't be Gaga's first big game. Last year for Super Bowl 50, she sang the National Anthem. The halftime performer in 2016 was Coldplay, who was joined by Beyonce and Bruno Mars.

There is no word yet on who else will join Gaga for her halftime performance at Super Bowl 51.

The Super Bowl airs Feb. 5, 2017, on Fox.
