The Easy on Me hitmaker has seemingly made the decision in the light of recent events to prioritise her safety, as an insider told RadarOnline, She is petrified after what happened to Kirk and is living like a hermit in Los Angeles, convinced stadium-scale performances put her life in danger.
The sports event will take place on 8 February, 2026 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and the Set Fire to the Rain singers hiatus will not have ended by then.
This is not the first time Adele has refused an offer from the NFL, but she made the same decision back in 2026, when she said the show was not about music.

(114,679 posts)The security is planned more than a year ahead of time. If there is any place that would be safe for her to perform in front of a large crowd, that is it. That said, I don't disagree that the US is, on average, a very unsafe country. But, while I'd have qualms about a lot of public events, the Super Bowl is not one of them.
Too bad, though. I'd like to see Adele perform.

(69,643 posts)My guess is that she doesn't want to commit to the Super Bowl and this is a plausible excuse, maybe she hopes it will do some good.

(13,688 posts)And Adele has succumbed to that climate. But I think she is overreacting. I think the odds are that she would be perfectly safe. She would probably statistically be in more danger from a traffic accident on the way to a venue. But I understand her fear. The climate we are in now does that to people.
