Following months of speculation amongst fans, Super Bowl Halftime sponsors Pepsi confirmed earlier this month that the ’Singles Ladies’ chart-topper would make a return to the stage following her 2013 headline set.

Talking to James Corden about how the collaboration came about, band front man Chris Martin joked, "You get summoned to their [Beyonce’s] castle, then you wait for about a week in a small room where you’re just fed very minimally.

“Whoever survives gets through to the next stage where you get to play tennis with Jay, and if you beat him twice you get sent through to meet Destiny’s Child. They check you for lice and bugs and if they deem you clean enough you can meet Beyonce behind a screen.”
