Tragedy!!! Taylor Swift will NOT agree to do the Super Bowl halftime.
She thinks too much of herself.
[quote]According to a report by British pop culture reporter Rob Shuter, the NFL’s talks with global pop icon Taylor Swift have “fell apart” after the singer was denied terms “that matched her influence.” An anonymous music executive told the pop culture reporter, “She wasn’t asking for favors, she was asking for respect,” adding, “Taylor knows her worth. She knows the kind of ratings she brings, the global attention she commands. She wasn’t about to hand that over for free.”
[quote]“Taylor Swift doesn’t need exposure. She wanted a deal that reflected her value,” another industry source said.
[quote]Per Charlotte NBC affiliate WCNC, part of the deal Swift was bargaining for included ownership over the footage of the halftime show.
[quote]Adele is now “in talks” to play February’s Super Bowl halftime show, according to a report by Page Six.

She’s right. She doesn’t need the Super Bowl to increase sales. I don’t blame her for wanting percentages from profits or an upfront bottom line. For a while now, the superbowl halftime show picks up slightly higher ratings than the rest of the game. I predict with Swift, it would be significantly higher.

It's unfortunate that this mildly talented singer-songwriter has been treated like she's a genius for the ages. Not a single one of her songs has really entered the national bloodstream. Even someone like Carly Simon had more of an impact.

Yep, but I'd be amazed if she wasn't also thinking about the optics of being engaged to a tight end for one of the teams most likely to make it to the Super Bowl again. Considering she was "blamed" for the Chiefs losing last year (which is absurd, but still), she could be deemed a jinx if it happened again after her own performance.

Taylor Swift doesn’t have to be political, but she actually isn’t not that political any more. It’s not accident that she inherited Madonna’s mantle. She is very, very careful not to cut off her MAGA fan base. Her Conservative fans still love her.
When she was chasing the pink dollar with the Lover album, she spoke out a bit. But she did nothing except endorse Kamala Harris, and seemingly did so because JD Vance insulted cat ladies.

Yes, the media and tabloids were brutal toward Madonna during her heyday in the '80s and '90s.
The whole music industry was despite her being a superstar and the best-selling female artist of all time.
In fact, Madonna didn't win her first Grammy until her 7th album RAY OF LIGHT (1998) at age 40 and was barely nominated before that.
Whereas Taylor won from the get-go with FEARLESS (2008) and already has 14 Grammys at age 35.

Bey hasn’t sold as many albums as Madonna while navigating a drastically changing music environment from iTunes to streaming but she just has had a longer run far as present pop culture relevancy. Beyoncé’s new stuff still charts high, gets radio play, while also being critically acclaimed. Madge’s run was from 1983 to 2003. Beys run as a solo artist is from 2003 to present. That’s not even factoring in her years with Destiny’s child starting in 1997.

MAGAts will be furious. He doesn't sing in English. BWAAAAH. Look for all the deportation calls from them, the primary audience for the game.
[quote]Bad Bunny is one of the few artists of modern times who sings Latin trap entirely in Spanish. The Puerto Rican singer is the most-listened-to Latin artist on Spotify, with more than 60 million monthly listeners. Bunny's first language is Spanish and speaks a little English.
Just listen.

And she did. 20 years ago in 2005, she released “We Belong Together”, which was one of her biggest hits ever.

R118 Cunt please. I’m guessing you talkin bout the Erotica era which was lowkey soft porn for that time period. Madonna knew that shit would sell less, she was thinking long term. And the critics derided her too, I guess they saw it as being pretentious and overly sexual for the sake of. Wasn’t just middle American early 90s Karen moms; that album wasn’t perceived well by critics neevah. Plus this new sound of 90s r&b became what’s poppin. Madonna is still a popstar not a rock or country star. Pop stars rely on the current trends. That’s why she linked with Babyface and Bedtime Stories was a huge success.

R12 your right. 20 years ago was her comeback year. I lowkey apologize. I hated that We Belong Together song during that time period. Now it’s much more palatable. It’s a nicely written R&B song. And she killed that 2nd verse.

[quote] Per Charlotte NBC affiliate WCNC, part of the deal Swift was bargaining for included ownership over the footage of the halftime show.
In 5 years she will get her way and call it a victory for feminism and artist’s rights.

Fuck Madonna. She probably wouldn't show up for the halftime show until the entire game had been over for three hours and would be pissed that they didn't wait for her. Meanwhile the halftime show had been performed by the custodial staff and their magic kazoos who accompanied ladies' room attendant and church soloist Janelle in a long medley of " Sheep May Safely Graze," Brining in the Sheaves," and "Old Rugged Cross."

[quote]MAGAts will be furious.
They are. Right-wing nutball Robby Starbuck:
"Roger Goodell and the @NFL just decided to make the Super Bowl political by picking Bad Bunny as the 2026 Super Bowl music act.
The guy literally says he isn’t touring the US because of Trump’s ICE raids and just released a video mocking President Trump.
Also, most of his songs aren’t even in English. This is not a pick designed to unite football fans or let people just enjoy the show. It was a pick designed to divide fans and no doubt Bad Bunny will find some way to push a woke message.
Are NFL owners in on this idiocy or are they just culturally that disconnected from reality and how Roger uses the NFL to push left wing social issues?"
I wouldn't be surprised if Bad Bunny ultimately pulls out. The death threats will be coming fast and furious.

MAGAts would be just as furious if Swift had been chosen. As far as Bad Bunny is concerned, look for Trump to post a thumbs down and the NFL eventually buckling to pressure and eventually choose a country singer who will make it a tribute to Trump, all under the guise of celebrating America's 250 Anniversary or honoring the Armed Forces. What's Lee Greenwood doing now?

Swift has all the excitement of the bag of powdered cement leaning against the corner of my garage.
Her stardom, clout and fame, nevertheless, are a thing to behold. Good for her if she held out for her terms with the NFL.
Superbowl Half-Time Show headliners aren't paid a fee for performing. I think the NFL pays for the costs of the set-up, labor costs of the back-up dancers and musicians, etc.

r171 "done got"
Teafake, let me school you, sweetie. I taught Special Ed, so I'm used to this. When low-IQ people find a common ground, they rally. It's actually quite beautiful. They will find Bugs Bunny, Show White, some sort of comical "hero" that speaks to them. They don't require much depth. This is what happened with Beyonce. A dullard, propped up by those around her, but has lots of energy. The low talents/special ed kids LOVE her. There's no pressure. There's not a bar for talent. Just generic crap, easy to reach - it gives them hope. "Hey, if this girl can make it, surely anyone can."
So, we have Teafake. He is allllll up in it. "Omg, she is my idol - generic, talentless, but she can jump around like me!"
You've been schooled. Take note.

ICE will attend Super Bowl
[quote]Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will attend the 2026 Super Bowl, where Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny is set to headline the halftime show, according to Corey Lewandowski, an adviser at the Department of Homeland Security. “There is nowhere that you can provide safe haven to people in this country illegally. Not the Super Bowl and nowhere else,” Lewandowski said Wednesday on “The Benny Show.” “We will find you. We will apprehend you. We will put you in a detention facility, and we will deport you. So know that that is a very real situation under this administration, which is completely contrary to what how it used to be,” he said.
