Our goal is simple, yet profound - we want CeCe Winans, an unrivaled global music icon, to grace us with her powerful vocals singing the National Anthem at Super Bowl LIX in 2025. It’s nothing against Jon Batiste, a remarkably talented man who did an amazing job writing the score for the movie Soul. However, we feel that CeCe should be the one to grace the Super Bowl stage.

CeCe Winans, a close friend of Whitney Houston, stands as a testament to phenomenal musical talent molded by a rich history in the music industry. It is noteworthy to recall that Houston's rendition of the National Anthem at Super Bowl XXV in 1991 remains the most memorable performance of the anthem to date, setting an incredibly high bar. We believe CeCe can echo this timeless moment.

Moreover, Super Bowl LIX falls on February 9, 2025, just two days before Whitney’s birthday. It would be a heartfelt tribute to Whitney’s legacy if her best friend, CeCe, could offer her rendition of the National Anthem on this day.

Let's afford CeCe the opportunity to light up the Super Bowl platform with her breathtaking vocals, to honor her long-lasting friendship with Whitney, and to offer an unforgettable National Anthem performance. Therefore, we urge you to back our cause and voice your support to have CeCe Winans perform the National Anthem at Super Bowl LIX. Sign this petition and let's make it happen, one signature at a time.
