B.o.B. Hopes To Join Bruno Mars On Super Bowl Stage

B.o.B. is happy Bruno Mars is the halftime performer at Super Bowl XLVIII, especially if he gets an invitation to join him onstage.

B.o.B. says with a laugh: “I ain’t got my phone call yet, but I hope I’ll be on there.”

Mars and the rapper collaborated on the 2010 No. 1 hit, “Nothin’ on You.” The song was nominated for multiple Grammy Awards and helped Mars launch his successful solo career, which includes two platinum albums and 10 Top 5 hits.

B.o.B. said in an interview Wednesday that he and Mars came up the music ranks together, performing in the studio before the singer became a pop star.
