Justin Timberlake is bringing sexy back to the Super Bowl!

The superstar singer took to Twitter on Sunday to announce that he would be performing at the halftime show during the 2018 Super Bowl.

Posting the news with a hilarious wordplay video with pal Jimmy Fallon, Timberlake wrote, “I DO have the time. Half the time…#PepsiHalftime #SBLII @Pepsi @NFL @JimmyFallon @FallonTonight.”

Pepsi also tweeted the big news, writing, “It’s official: @jtimberlake is taking the #PepsiHalftime stage at #SBLII Tune into #SNF tonight for the full scoop & we’ll see you on Feb 4!”

Superbowl LII will be taking place on Feb. 4, 2018 in Minneapolis, Minn.

This isn’t JT’s first time performing at football’s biggest night.

The showman previously appeared at the halftime show during the 2004 Super Bowl. The smooth singer made headlines (and lawsuits) when he ripped off Janet Jackson‘s clothes, exposing her breast to the world in the now-infamous “Boobgate.”

Hopefully this year’s performance will be a bit tamer.

In an exclusive interview with Football Night in America host Mike Tirico that aired tonight at halftime of Sunday Night Football, said of being asked, “It’s a huge moment so I was very excited.”

Lady Gaga performed last year at the Super Bowl LI and Tirico asked if anything like her high-flying performance would be happening with JT. The former boybander said don’t count on it.

“I don’t know, man. I’m 36 now. I don’t know how much of that I can do anymore.”

He said his aim for the fast-paced, high-octane set is to get people dancing and having fun.

“What I really want to do is take the opportunity to put together a performance that feels like it unifies. I feel like that would be the ultimate accomplishment, and then the icing on the cake is at some point, within that 12 minutes, that everybody is shaking their booty.”

Bischoff and Angel announced their engagement in July 2016 after 10 months of dating.

“Whitney Angel has a nice ring to it, yall!” she wrote on Instagram at the time, alongside a pic of the two embracing, with her wearing a diamond engagement ring.

The two met on the dating site Bumble.

“This one time, on 9/24/15, I went on a bumble date and met a really cute guy,” Bischoff wrote on Instagram in September. “He actually looked just like his pics!! He made me laugh. And he made me feel like I could be myself. He didn’t care about my past. We were just two kids living in the moment. Fast forward 2 years & we are ready to get hitched in a matter of days. Life is a crazy ride, thanks for hanging on with me @rickyrange16.”

“I wish I had some fairytale way that we met, like in Whole Foods or at the gym, but I don’t frequent either,” she wrote on Style Me Pretty this past January.

She said that days after she reached out to Angel on Bumble, she texted her friend, “I think I met the guy I’m going to marry, although I’ve actually never met him.”

That month, Bischoff celebrated a bachelorette weekend with her girlfriends.

I wish I could marry Ricky 100 times just so that I could have weekends like this more than once,” she wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo gallery. “Thank you to all of my amazing girlfriends who made this weekend one for the books. I wish I could post a pic of every lovely lady and share with the world how much they mean to me, but I put my phone away to be in the moment and didn’t bring a camera. These pics are from friends and ok I’ll just stop talking now. Just so dang happy. THANK YOU.”
