Adele could be set to play her biggest gig yet. The singer, who headlined Glastonbury earlier this summer and is in the middle of her sold-out international tour, could perform at next year's Super Bowl.
According to The Sun, Adele is in talks with bosses to headline at the halftime show in the NRG Stadium in Houston in 2017.
An NFL source said:
“There is nobody bigger in the world than Adele right now and organisers are doing absolutely everything they can to try to persuade her to sign up. She’s sold out every date on her tour, everyone wants a piece of her and they know they can bank on her bringing in the viewers.
“It’s Adele’s nerves that are the issue — it hasn’t been an easy sell.”
Madonna, Prince, The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson and Katy Perry are just some of the acts that have previously performed at the Super Bowl.
Last February, 115 US viewers tuned into watch Coldplay, Beyoncé and Bruno Mars take to the stage at San Francisco’s Levi’s Stadium.
Super Bowl LI will take place on Sunday, February 5, 2017 - a week before the Grammy Awards.
