Pop icon Madonna has been confirmed to perform during halftime at the Superbowl XLVI. 

NBC made the exclusive announcement via the NBA on last night's (December 4) Sunday Night Football match between the Detroit Lions and the New Orleans Saints, and explained that she will take the stage on February 5, 2012 at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. 

The superstar has been in the studio working on her highly anticipated forthcoming album and was recently faced with the unfortunate leak of one of her unfinished tracks, 'Give Me All Your Love'. She spoke publicly about the issue and said: "my true fans wouldn't do this."

It was also recently revealed that she is set to collaborate with rap sensation Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. Watch the trailer for her newly announced 2012 Superbowl Halftime performance below:
