Singer Pink is opening up about her decision to turn down an offer to perform the halftime show at the 2020 Super Bowl. The star – who’s name is often stylized as P!nk – got candid about the huge show, confirming that she was in fact offered the slot to perform in front of billions of people watching around the world but actually opted to turn it down.
The star made the confession during a candid new interview with Billboard posted online on October 31. She admitted that her desire not to subject herself to the public scrutiny that comes along with the performance as well as her support for football player Colin Kaepernick fueled her decision to decline the opportunity.
“Everybody that does it gets so persecuted,” Pink told the outlet, referring to the avalanche of public scrutiny that can often hit artists who perform the big Super Bowl halftime show, often through social media platforms.
