Post Malone, Jack White & Lil Jon Set For 2025 NFL Thanksgiving Day Halftime Shows

Share

Thanksgiving Day football is getting a new coat of fun in 2025, with Post Malone, Jack White, and Lil Jon locked in to headline this year’s NFL halftime shows across three stadiums and three very different matchups.

It’s a wild but perfectly American trio, country loving pop star, Detroit rock icon, and crunk pioneer, all taking the biggest TV day of the year by storm. The NFL confirmed the lineup on Sunday, sending fans into the usual swirl of celebration, confusion, and comment section warfare. Post Malone will hold court at AT&T Stadium during the Dallas Cowboys vs. Kansas City Chiefs showdown, a slot that doubles as the annual Salvation Army Red Kettle Kickoff. In true Texas fashion, he announced it by rolling a horned semi-truck into Dallas on Instagram, dressed head to toe in Cowboys gear.

“Our big secret’s out!” the joint post read, while Malone himself jumped into the comments with: “how bout them cowboys?!!”
He added in a statement, “I’m from Texas. I grew up a Cowboys fan… It’s a real honor to be part of the Red Kettle Kickoff… and help bring hope to so many people.”

The rest of the day

Up in Detroit, hometown hero Jack White will take over the Lions vs. Packers halftime show, a spot that’s been getting more star power lately thanks to the team’s new multi year partnership with Eminem and Paul Rosenberg, who are set to executive produce Detroit’s Thanksgiving halftime productions through 2027. White announced his involvement through Instagram as well, posting a blue vinyl pressing labeled with the details and captioned simply: “Hot off the press.”

Rounding out the day is Lil Jon, set to turn the Ravens vs. Bengals night game into a full volume party at M&T Bank Stadium. Before that, he’ll kick off his morning with an appearance in the 99th Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, making him the holiday’s unofficial hype engine.

With Posty, White, and Lil Jon splitting the country’s biggest Thursday broadcast, Thanksgiving 2025 is shaping up to be one of the most unpredictable lineups the NFL has booked in years.
