According to the post, the rapper reportedly said they would bring back "real stories, real hearts, and real hope" with TPUSA's Halftime show.

The Facebook post in question noted that Brandon Lake, the former member of Bethel Music and Maverick City Music, shared a message with his fans about the alleged performance.

The post says that performing at the All-American Halftime Show is not about "fame or rivalry," instead, it is about "faith" and reminding people that God "moves through music.”

The post quickly went viral, garnering nearly 200,000 reactions and over 16,000 comments.

However, the post turned out to be fake. Neither Jelly Roll nor Brandon Lake has announced their involvement in the upcoming All-American Halftime Show, and TPUSA has not released any official lineup details. There is also no confirmation about Erika Kirk hosting the event.
