It seems Lady Gaga has been going non-stop for the last few months and February will be no exception.  In addition to her recent accomplishments in TV and film, the 29-year-old vocalist has now been booked to sing the National Anthem at this year's Super Bowl. The 50th anniversary of the annual football tradition will be seen by an estimated 118 million viewers.

 

E! News has confirmed that the six-time Grammy winner will be performing on Sunday at Levi's Stadium in San Francisco. Her words will then be simultaneously interpreted in American Sign Language by Oscar winning actress Marlee Matlin. The "Poker Face" songstress joins an impressive list who have performed the iconic song at the event including Whitney Houston, Diana Ross and Cher, who ironically The Fame Monster compared herself to when she accepted her Golden Globe award for Best Actress in a Limited Series for American Horror Story: Hotel.

Of course the schedule of The Fame Monster doesn't lighten up after the game. Gaga will also perform at the 2016 Grammy Awards on February 15th. The "Applause" singer will be giving a tribute to the late David Bowie who will be receiving a posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award. "We had already booked Lady Gaga on this year's show, but when David passed-almost in a single moment-we knew we had to change direction." said Grammys executive producer Ken Ehrlich. "We immediately spoke and agreed that she should be the one to honor David. She's perfect for it."

If all that isn't enough, after the Grammy's, Gaga is off to the Oscars on February 28th where she is nominated for Best Achievement in Music for her song "Til It Happens to You" for the documentary The Hunting Ground.  Aside from her professional accomplishments this month, the busiest woman in show business will no doubt be spending Valentine's Day with her fiancée, actor Taylor Kinney. The couple recently posed naked together for V magazine's Pre-Spring issue.
