After rumors swirled in 2016 that Adele would perform at the 2017 Super Bowl, she told a Los Angeles crowd that she had to reject the offer.
"First of all, I'm not doing the Super Bowl. 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 said no," Adele told the audience according to Billboard.
The next day, the NFL and Pepsi released a statement asserting that they never "extended a formal offer to Adele or anyone else."
