"I guess Lady Gaga is a much better choice for the Super Bowl halftime than Coldplay ..."

Following much speculation, Lady Gaga and the NFL confirmed on Thursday that she will be headlining Fox's Super Bowl LI halftime show.

This will be her second time performing at the Super Bowl. The "Perfect Illusion" singer sang the National Anthem at Super Bowl 50 last February.

Gaga announced the news on Twitter:

It's not an illusion. The rumors are true. This year the SUPER BOWL goes GAGA! @nfl @FOXTV @pepsi #PERFECTILLUSION #GAGASUPERBOWL pic.twitter.com/qR4O57451G

The Pepsi Zero Sugar Super Bowl LI halftime show will take place at NRG Stadium in Houston and airs on Fox on Feb. 5, 2017.

Twitter users had mixed reactions to the news, with some fans excited to see her performance and others ready for something a bit different at the show. See some of the tweets below. 

Kind of want to go to Super Bowl this year just for #GAGASUPERBOWL.

You can say what you want about her, but you can NOT deny her ability to put on a show. If you want proof, help yourself. #GAGASUPERBOWL

is gaga performing just dance and poker face on loop for 12 minutes or will it be another David Bowie tribute

Thanks Adele for turning down the halftime gig so we could listen to Gaga instead

Please explain to me who could possibly be more talented than Gaga in the music industry right now that would be a better act for the SB???

If Gaga does SB, she will go full out! Just imagine that show!! #GagaSuperBowl

I have a feeling the #GAGASUPERBOWL is going to suspiciously sound a lot like Madonna's 2012 halftime show...

Nothing against Gaga, but how about something a bit more NFL for the super bowl? Like rock & roll maybe? #gagasuperbowl

Who really thought football fans would wanna watch Lady GAGA perform during the Superbowl halftime? I mean really...
