Former figure skating champions Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinksi are heading to the Super Bowl!
The colorful pair have been added to NBC Sports’ roster of on-air talent for Super Bowl XLIX, which takes place in Phoenix, Arizona, on Feb. 1.
Weir and Lipinksi will report from the official NFL pre-game party for VIP guests, offering their own unique observations before the big game and interviewing the stars.
“Having six hours of pre-game coverage allows us to not only surround every aspect of the game, but also to cover the Super Bowl as the unparalleled event that it is,” said Sam Flood, executive producer for NBC Sports and NBCSN in a statement on Wednesday.
