Leave It to Hamilton's Leading Ladies to Steal the Super Bowl Spotlight

By Ryan Roschke

Luke Bryan may have sung the national anthem at this year's Super Bowl, but there was another part of the pregame that really snatched up the attention. In addition to "The Star-Spangled Banner," Hamilton's Phillipa Soo, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Jasmine Cephas Jones added another performance to the roster. The trio harmonized perfectly as they sang a gorgeous rendition of "America the Beautiful." To add a little feminist flair to the classic song, they also put a cherry on top: after singing "And crown thy good with brotherhood," they added " . . . and sisterhood." Watch the snippet of the performance above to be filled with sheer brilliance.
