Rumors of Adele being tapped to do next year’s Super Bowl 51 halftime show have been swirling for months. Well during a performance in LA this past weekend, she confirmed this for her fans but then revealed that she had turned the offer down.
“First of all, I’m not doing the Super Bowl,” Adele she confirmed. “I mean, come on, that show is not about music. And I don’t really — I can’t dance or anything like that. They were very kind, they did ask me, but I did say no.”
Well, the tea is that the NFL and halftime show sponsor, Pepsi, denies ever asking the singer to perform at Super Bowl 51! “The NFL and Pepsi are big fans of Adele,” they said in a statement. “We have had conversations with several artists about the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show. However, we have not at this point extended a formal offer to Adele or anyone else. We are focused on putting together a fantastic show for Houston and we look forward to revealing that in good time.”
Oop! Well, on that note, who do you guys think would give a great halftime performance? I vote Beyoncé for a 3-peat!
