Pitbull is heading to the Super Bowl…

The 32-year-old Cuban-American rap superstar is set to headline the Rolling Stone Live Super Bowl party next month in New Orleans, along with hip-hop artist Flo Rida.

It’s Rolling Stone magazine’s second time staging the Super Bowl party, which debuted successfully last year and featured LMFAO, Lupe Fiasco, the Gym Class Heroes and Cobra Starship.

This year’s party will be staged at the Wyndham Riverfront Hotel, which will be branded as the Bud Light Hotel over Super Bowl weekend.

“Rolling Stone Live” is a by-invitation-only party. But a limited number of general admission tickets will be made available, as well as a limited number of VIP tickets, that will give partygoers access to the Rolling Stone rock lounge where they can order from a special New Orleans-inspired menu and get complimentary drinks.

Rolling Stone‘s Super Bowl party is one of many events during Super Bowl weekend that feature A-list celebrities. Grammy Award-winning singer Fantasia Barrino is set to perform in the upcoming Super Bowl Gospel Celebration at the UNO Lakefront Arena on February 1, while Beyonce Knowles, Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland of Destiny’s Child will perform at the Super Bowl halftime show at the New Orleans Superdome on February 3.

The Rolling Stone Live Super Bowl party will be held on February 1.

“Love You Like a Love Song” is one Selena Gomez’s greatest hits, with James Franco even singing along to the track… And, now the inescapable hit is getting a little love from MTV…

Selena Gomez

The 20-year-old half-Mexican American singer has received her first-ever MTV VMA award nomination for Best Female Video for “Love You Like a Love Song,” which peaked at number 22 on Billboard Hot 100 and has sold more than two million copies.

Gomez’s high-style video—which finds her in an underground Japanese karaoke club and magically mixes elements of reality and fantasy—will face stiff competition from Rihanna’s “We Found Love,”
Katy Perry’s “Part of Me,”
Beyoncé’s “Love on Top”
and Nicki Minaj’s “Starships.”

Gomez’s one-time BFF Demi Lovato has been nominated in the Best Video With a Message category for her anthem “Skyscraper.” She’ll face off against Rise Against’s “Ballad of Hollis Brown,”
 Kelly Clarkson’s “Dark Side,”
Gym Class Heroes’ “The Fighter,” K’Naan and Nelly Furtado’s “Is Anybody Out There?” and
 Lil Wayne’s “How to Love”

Meantime, Jennifer Lopez and Pitbull’s “Dance Again” video has been nominated for Best Choreography. Other nominees in the category include:
 Chris Brown’s “Turn Up the Music,”
Rihanna’s “Where Have You Been,”
Beyoncé’s “Countdown”
and Avicii’s “Le7els”

This year’s MTV VMA Awards ceremony will take place on September 6 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Cobra Starship’s Gabe Saporta isn’t the only Latino musician getting in the game at this year’s Super Bowl… Don Omar will also make his way to Indianapolis for a special performance.

The 33-year-old Puerto Rican Reggaetón singer/actor will take the stage at the Super Bowl Fan Jam. Sponsored by the NFL and Pepsi, the pre-game event is expected to build plenty of buzz for the big game.

Don Omar

El Don will headline the event on Wednesday, February 1, four days before Sunday’s Super Bowl game.

But Don Omar won’t be the only Latino taking the stage at this year’s Fan Jam.

He’ll be joined by Larry Hernandez, Alejandra Guzman and Moderatto in the show, which will be broadcast live on television.

The following day, Fan Jam—completely free to the public—will continue with performances from Gym Class Heroes and B.o.B.

It looks like Gabe Saporta will be getting a taste of Super Bowl XLVI next month…

The 32-year-old Uruguayan singer/songwriter, the lead singer of Cobra Starship, will be taking the stage at the Rolling Stone Super Bowl party in Indianapolis. Along with Saporta’s band, LMFAO, Gym Class Heroes and Lupe Fiasco will also perform during the star-studded event.

“To have LMFAO and Cobra Starship on a bill for something like this, it’s genius because they are two bands who embrace the whole party thing,” Gym Class Heroes’ Travie McCoy tells Rolling Stone. “It’s definitely a party that if we weren’t playing, I’d hate to miss.”

Cobra Starship’s latest single “You Make Me Feel…” has sold more than a million downloads in the U.S. alone.

The Rolling Stone Super Bowl party will take place Saturday, February 4, at the Crane Bay in Indianapolis, one day before the big game.
