Amanda Gorman, the inauguration’s star, will perform an original poem before the Super Bowl. And she will honor three heroes the NFL tapped as honorary captains for their service throughout the pandemic.

Amanda Gorman wowed Americans at President Joe Biden’s inauguration when she recited her poem ‘The Hill We Climb’. The youngest Nobel laureate’s words were considered as hopeful by the listeners. (Damn right)

But do you know what’s the best part? According to an NFL list, she will be the first poet ever to perform at Super Bowl.

It is one of the most-watched broadcasts on television! (Girl, now that’s some achievement. We are so happy for her!)

NFL also announced that the new poem will recognize and honor an educator (Trimaine Davis), a nurse (Suzie Dorner), and a veteran (James Martin) for helping their communities during the pandemic.

We are honored to recognize these three individuals who represent the best in all of us,” Goodell said in a statement.

During this incredibly challenging time in our lives, Trimaine, Suzie, and James have exemplified the essence of leadership, each in their own way. We are grateful for their commitment and proud to share their stories and recognize them during this special moment on Super Bowl Sunday.”

The poem will be broadcasted to a national audience on CBS, the NFL announced.

Born and raised in Los Angeles by a single mother and sixth-grade English teacher, Amanda Gorman started writing poems when she was a child. But found it terrifying to perform due to a speech impediment.

She overcame that fear by drawing confidence from former President Barack Obama and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., and practices songs from the Broadway musical “Hamilton.”

Well, we will definitely be watching her performance!
