Jennifer Lopez and Shakira have promised to pay tribute to Kobe Bryant during the Super Bowl half-time show.

The two singers will perform at the showpiece event on Sunday.

They announced their planned salute for Kobe during a press conference at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, which will host the big game between the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs.

The game will take place a week after the death of the retired basketball player in a helicopter crash near Los Angeles.
