Sources tell Billboard she will perform without guests, plus more halftime details.
The NFL tweeted Beyonce would make an appearance last September.
Contrary to rumors that Lady Gaga was told she must avoid discussing politics during her upcoming Super Bowl halftime performance, a source familiar with the situation tells Billboard this is not the case.
On Tuesday (Jan. 17), Entertainment Tonight reported that Gaga would not be permitted to say anything about the presidential election or mention Donald Trump, but an insider says, "It's bullshit."
A rep for the NFL told ET this was "nonsense from people trying to stir up controversy where there is none. ... The Super Bowl is a time when people really come together. Lady Gaga is focused on putting together an amazing show for fans and we love working with her on it; we aren?t going to be distracted by this."
Lady Gaga performs during the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on Nov. 30, 2016 in Paris, France.

Lady Gaga was very public with her support for Hillary Clinton during the presidential election and even protested outside Trump Tower in New York City following his victory.
Billboard has also learned that Gaga will be taking the Super Bowl halftime stage on Feb. 5 without any guest appearances, breaking from what's become an unofficial tradition.
Lady Gaga attends the promotional event for her new album 'Joanne' at the The Ritz-Carlton Tokyo on Nov. 2, 2016 in Tokyo, Japan.

The pop superstar will be only the eighth performer in the halftime show's history to perform without guests -- and it's not for lack of solid connections. Her latest album, Joanne, was chock-full of notable guest performers and producers, including Mark Ronson, Beck, Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine, Tame Impala's Kevin Parker, Father John Misty and Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme, though none of them have the same mainstream recognition as, say, Beyonc? and Bruno Mars, who joined headliners Coldplay last year.
Leading up to the big game, Gaga has been documenting her preparation on Instagram. She even said she built a tent in her backyard with a dance floor to practice her routine.
That would have been LATE af of her to bring Beyonce out :dead:
I'm sure Bey was lookin forward to it tho
I can hear her fans now "only artist to perform 3 times at the super bowl" :overit:

You know those monkeys couldn't wait
I doubt the beyonce story is true though, even she knows when it's overkill.
This was never in the works. I think the fanbases were rallying for this
If she's not gonna be in it, why mention her?

They wanted her there, Gaga probably changed her mind because she knew Flea would hog the spotlight.

And dead at bey ever lowering herself to be the side show to a struggling fad.
n
so which story is true? :everythingok:
:diddraispoot:
Beyonce absolutely loves shit like this
I'm sure she's phoning Gag daily for updates
Gaga was right to cut her tho. She hasn't had a hit in ages, and the hype from Lemonay is completely GONE
:dead: @ Rih and Drake still out promoting the Anti and Views eras, racking up awards
She better be careful, her career is in more danger than it's ever been tbh
It says a lot that Bey's name is always brought up around Super Bowl time in the news even though she didn't have the highest ratings everyone knows she gives the best show. She's Iconic
In reality news
iTunes update
Lemonade still Top 10
Views and Anti nowhere to be found
Let's call a thing a THING

Didn't Rih quit the Anti era when the Grammys didn't nominate her for AOTY, and Drake dumped her for JLo?

They don't want no controversy and uproar from the rednecks in the Trump era, so they told Beyonce to stay home. Don't bring your afros and that stench of doo gro on the field. :nowgorl:
