We won't lie—we were pretty excited when rumors surfaced that Adele would be performing at the next Super Bowl. After all, the list of people who can top the likes of Beyoncé, Madonna and Prince isn't very long (and we're pretty sure Adele is #1 on that list). Sadly, those hopes were dashed by the singer herself during a concert in Los Angeles this weekend.

She was invited to do the half-time show, she revealed, saying, "They were really kind, they did ask me, but I did say no." Why? Because the Super Bowl is "not about the music," she said. Okay, true.
We're not the only ones sort of upset by this news—the crowd, too, booed when she revealed this tidbit. "I know I'm not Beyoncé, I can't dance or anything like that," she explained. Let's be real though, we don't need any pop star moves when we've got a voice like Adele's to listen to.
Though we can never get enough of Adele, we totally respect her decision. Plus, it's not like Adele needs the help of a football game to fill stadiums.
