Beyoncé alludes to Super Bowl gig

Beyoncé has seemingly confirmed a report that she will be the halftime performer at Super Bowl XLVII in New Orleans.

The singer Tuesday posted a photo to her Tumblr site, in which she is wearing eye-black strips on which the date of the game -- Feb. 3, 2013 -- is written. The official announcement is expected to be made Wednesday, according to The Associated Press.

Beyoncé, whose pop and R&B hits include "Crazy in Love," "Irreplaceable" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," has won 16 Grammy Awards. The 31-year-old sang the national anthem at the 2004 Super Bowl in her hometown of Houston when the New England Patriots defeated the Carolina Panthers.

Madonna performed at halftime at this year's Super Bowl in February with guests CeeLo Green, Nicki Minaj, LMFAO and M.I.A.
