NO SUPER BOWL
FOR ADELE

Adele told a Staples Center audience Saturday she will not perform at the Super Bowl in 2017.

"I mean, come on, that show is not about music. And I don't really—I can't dance or anything like that,” she said, referring to this year’s spectacle that included Beyonce’s “Formation.” “They were very kind, they did ask me, but I said no."

The NFL, though, which often works hard to draw ambiguous lines between fact and fiction, says they have not formally asked anyone to appear, noting that the league and Pepsi have had conversations with several artists about the halftime show.

The good news is that it frees her up to stop by our new offices during Grammy Week to serenade the staff.
