This is the first year in decades they have paid artists to appear in the Super Bowl. And that was only because of the Kapernick kneeling thing. The artists make tons of money with the downloads of their music. So its well worth their time. I heard Lady Gaga or Katy Perry, forget which one, made $200 million in song sales in the first week post Super Bowl.


Halftime musical acts is not my thing. I'm not their target audience. They have done well recently with current and popular acts. Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Bruno Mars etc...I'm assuming those type of acts attract the non-football fans?
