Two years after her impressive halftime performance, Beyoncé will be returning to Superbowl stage.

The pop superstar has been confirmed to join the line-up for this year’s event and is expected to perform a duet with Coldplay.

Pepsi have confirmed that the Drunk in Love singer has just signed up to appear during the show as part of the British band’s 12-minute show.

The musical heavyweights have worked together before, with Beyoncé lending her vocals to track Hymn for the Weekend on their new album A Head Full of Dreams.

Beyoncé brought the house down in 2013 when she performed a medley of her greatest hits.

She also surprised the crowd by bringing out Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams for a Destiny's Child reunion.
