Super Bowl: Beyonce Prepares for Halftime Show (Video)

Stage is set for halftime show during Sunday's NFL title game between the Ravens and the 49ers.

The Super Bowl halftime show has gotten to be about as much of an event as the game itself, with a superstar performer and the ensuing celebrity buzz.

And so it is in 2013, with Beyonce the scheduled performer. She follows a long list of celebs, such as Madonna (in 2012), Tom Petty, the Rolling Stones and Paul McCartney.

This year, the buzz is not just about what Beyonce will perform in the 12-minute set. In meeting the Super Bowl media Thursday (Jan. 31), she also had to deal with a possible Destiny's Child reunion and whether she was "lip-synching" her performance of the National Anthem at the Presidential Inauguration on January 21.

But will Beyonce's husband, Jay-Z, join her onstage at the Super Bowl gig?
