Adele gives Goodell "Cold Shoulder" on SB halftime

Adele Says She Declined Offer to Perform at 2017 Super Bowl Halftime Show

 

[aluminum seats]

Probably declined in support of Brady.

 

[XLIX]

The NFL is such ******** artists by saying they never "formally offered" her the job. This is the sort of thing where no artist would even get a "formal offer" until the informal offer was accepted and there was an agreement in principle. So to say they never "formally offered" her the gig is just more typical NFL asshattedness.

She has too much integrity to do Super Bowl halftime. She's also right about it not being about music. Beyonce's militant fiasco was proof of that.

Adele's manager to Goody: "Dude, you're NOT getting Adele!"

Undoubtedly, she'll now be trashed by the NFL. Good for her.

But Goodell drones the NFL is integrity.

This is from a week ago > Adele set to perform at the Super Bowl show as ‘desperate’ chiefs bid to land Brit star

G0odell wouldn't know integrity if it bit him in the ass. I'd like to have a big black German shepherd named Integrity and sic him on Goodell ... rip the seat off his pants in public. What a photo op that would be.

As per Article 46, Roger Goodell has the authority to suspend Adele for four gigs for not cooperating.

Adele is a spectacular talent, but honestly, how could she make a halftime spectacular out of songbook of heartbroken nostalgia? Did they plan to have her do a wistful cover of "All My Rowdy Friends"?

Smart woman to refuse.

Agreed... didn't really see the fit myself, either.

I think it actually works in Goodell's NFL...you know, scientifically impossible **** like setting fire to rain and what not.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Adele as half time performer in a sports game is kind of like Slipknot or Korn performing at the ballet. Bad mix. And I love this and Adele.

Good catch. That's the kind of subtle weaselly thing you don't even really notice most of the time, but good to call out this lame league for. Ridiculous.

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

This just proves that Adele understands footballs intended audience better than the geniuses running the NFL*.

Good for us too, I don't understand the love for her music. Hello is hard to listen to.

 

[DarrylS]

Adele knows that no matter what she would do at halftime her "integrity" would be compromised.. Who is that "Fat Chick" on the stage Elmer???..

How will we explain that to the children???

Hey she could cover, "We Are the Champions" and dedicate it to those true queens of heartbroken nostalgia, the NJ Jets.
