Adele Turning Down The Super Bowl Halftime Show Is The All Time Dumbest Decision Ever Made
Fox News - Multiple Grammy Award-winning singer Adele says she turned down an offer to perform at the 2017 Super Bowl halftime show. The British singer told an audience Saturday at her Los Angeles concert that she was asked to perform at the event. “First of all, I’m not doing the Super Bowl,” Adele says from the stage in a video posted on Twitter. “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.”

Straight up, this is the dumbest business decision this side of turning down DraftKings equity. When the god damn Super Bowl wants you to perform at halftime, you perform at halftime. It’s really simple as that. This isn’t just any old show. We are talking about the most watched television event of the year. A hundred million eyeballs on YOU and your songs. You could perform for free and still make a million bucks that night due to the residual effects.
And what the fuck is Adele even talking about in her answer? “I can’t dance.” Who said anything about dancing? They are gifting you the biggest show of the year on a silver platter and you’re saying “I can’t dance.” What does…what does that even matter? And spare me with the”that show is not about music”. Again, shut the fuck up, Adele. The Grammys aren’t even about music. Simply put, when the most watched event in the world wants you and only you to headline the halftime show, you jizz your trousers before saying yes.
Does Adele have anything to do with the NFL or football? Fuck no. They could not be further opposites if they tried. But that’s why the NFL keeps doing this. They keep trying to cover all their bases by having non-football acts do the halftime show. It’s a bit annoying, sure, to see Beyonce, Burno Mars, and Katy Perry, and Madonna get the halftime shows, but those are acts that put asses in seats. They know what they’re doing and they’re doing it well. Which is why they asked Adele. All she does it bang out hits and make fat single chicks cry. Perfect for the Super Bowl halftime show. That’s the demographic the NFL doesn’t have cornered, but would tackle with Adele belting out HELLOOOOOO FROM THE OTHERRR SIIIIIIDEEEE. Adele, for a smart lady, you are so dumb. So, so dumb.
