Local nursing student sings in Super Bowl

Dayton’s Rashida Head took the field at Lucas Oil Stadium Sunday in Indianapolis, but scoring a touchdown wasn’t her goal.

The Sinclair Community College nursing student was in the 200 member choir that backed Cee Lo Green and Madonna during a rendition of Madonna’s hit “Like a Prayer” during Super Bowl XLVI.

The mother of two and wife of De’Lish Cafe executive chef Anthony Head attended Indiana University with an organizer of the elaborate halftime show.

Head’s mother is Lynne Morrow, a conductor and member of the San Francisco Grammy Chapter Board of Governors.

While in college Head preformed throughout Indiana with the IU Soul Revue. She sang professionally in California after graduating college in 2004.

Before the Super Bowl, she hadn’t performed on stage since 2006.

She couldn’t turn down such an amazing opportunity.

“It’s the Super Bowl, you need to go,” Head said.
