The Celebrity Beat…

Last night during “Sunday Night Football”Bad Bunny was announced as the headliner for the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show.  But rumor has it…he might not have been the FIRST choice.

Taylor Swift was allegedly in negotiations, but she turned it down because she didn’t want to do it for FREE.

An unnamed music executive says, quote, “She wasn’t asking for favors, she was asking for respect.  Taylor knows her worth.  She knows the kind of ratings she brings, the global attention she commands. She wasn’t about to hand that over for free.”

Super Bowl 60 goes down February 8th at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California… which is the home of the San Francisco 49ers.
