Without a doubt, headlining the Super Bowl halftime show is an honor for some artists. However, there are many others who have turned down the opportunity to put on a big show in the NFL.
In the history of the Super Bowl, a wide variety of artists have sung at this great event and the singer only has 12 minutes to encourage the audience.
Meanwhile, we have seen figures such as Michael Jack, Madonna, Shakira with JLo, Maroon 5, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Katy Perry, Beyoncé, to name a few.
The Super Bowl is one of the events that registers the most audience. The National Football League (NFL) final in February 2023 between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles reached an audience of 113 million viewers, its third historical record and the highest of the last six editions.
While the halftime show in which Rihanna performed registered 118.7 million viewers.

Do artists charge for their halftime show?
Although many believe that the different artists who perform on the ‘halftime show’ earn millions of dollars. However, the reality is very different, since no one who has appeared on that stage has received a single dollar.
This is due to a policy that the American football league has, the NFL is responsible for covering all production costs.
It should be noted that the different celebrities who have presented themselves do not leave empty-handed. Since they receive another even greater reward, which is visibility.
Being on stage for 12 minutes allows singers to obtain large profits indirectly because the event is watched by millions of viewers around the world.

Adele
Rumors brought Adele closer to Super Bowl LI in Houston in 2017, but it was the singer who was responsible for explaining why she decided to reject this great event: “That is not a musical show and I don’t dance or anything like that. They were very kind to offer it, but I had to say no.”
The stage lights would be one of the main factors for this skin infection.

Metallica
Several fans of the Metallica band continue to ask for their presence at a Super Bowl. Due to the request, vocalist James Hetfield told Sixx Sense in 2016 that this type of show is not his style.
Pink
Pink apparently has been invited to the halftime of the NFL game, but her refusal would supposedly be because she does not mind participating since there are political ideologies that do not allow her to be at this event.

Cardi B
Cardi B did not agree to participate due to the political scandals that the NFL had and that issue was that the rapper did not agree to do a show at the Super Bowl.

Nicki Minaj
Nicki Minaja also received the invitation to be part of the halftime show. However, the offer could not be finalized due to the singer’s busy schedule.
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift has intended to be part of the sports cast, but due to other commitments in her musical career she has not been able to be in the Super Bowl.

Kanye West
West hasn’t been able to close the deal with the Super Bowl either. Furthermore, everything seems to indicate that they have not met production expectations and that is why he rejected the invitation.
It was in 2022 that businesswoman Kim Kardashian and rapper Kanye West legally ended seven years of marriage.
