DId you watch the actual show? Is this what she said?
I did see it and those were pretty much her exact words. She said she's flattered and would love to do it and they've even had discussions. But told them she doesn't want to pay. She then said the ball is basicslly in their court now. If I find the video I'll post. The NFL would be stupid to keep this stance. Missing out on the biggest pop star in the world due to greed is silly. Guess it's still wait and see
And what if she knows that Rihanna is doing it so she is shading her?
Well, she wouldn't really be shading Rihanna. Rihanna, supposedly, has an album coming out. Therefore, investing in the Superbowl could just very well be apart of the album's promo budget.
This year’s prospective performers may be singing a different tune, however. Earlier this week the Wall Street Journal reported the NFL is now trying to convince acts to pay for the privilege of playing the halftime show, either by forking over a percentage of subsequent tour income or by making “some other type of financial contribution.”
Katy's tour is doing amazing, why would she give the NFL a percentage of her tour income? She obviously doesn't need the Superbowl
I don't think she was ever seriously considered anyway
Multiple sources confirmed that Rih, Coldplay, and Katy were all seriously considered by the NFL; it's still up in the air. She could play if the NFL decides to forget its new policy.
