(CNN) -

Alicia Keys has been tapped to sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl XLVII.

The "Girl on Fire" songstress will belt out "The Star-Spangled Banner" during the pregame fun at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans. You'll catch her performance prior to kickoff.

This is Keys' third time participating in the Super Bowl. She joins a long list of legends who have sung the nation's anthem ahead of the big game, including Diana Ross, Whitney Houston, Billy Joel, Faith Hill, Mariah Carey and more.

The Super Bowl airs on CBS February 3, with Beyonce performing during the Halftime show.
