當(dāng)泰勒·斯威夫特在全美音樂獎上翩翩起舞時,全國橄欖球聯(lián)盟已經(jīng)證實水果姐凱蒂·佩里將在超級碗中場休息時進行演出。佩里、百事可樂和超級碗中場秀贊助商還播放了紀(jì)念錄像帶來慶祝這一宣告。

The 30-year-old singer was first rumored for the Super Bowl halftime show back in August when The Wall Street Journal revealed Perry, Coldplay and Rihanna were among finalists for the high-profile job. At the time, it was rumored that the NFL had wanted artists to pay a portion of their post-halftime show income to the league as compensation for being picked. Perry, however, said she wouldn't participate in that pay-for-play scheme. "I'm not the kind of girl who would pay to play the Super Bowl," Perry said on ESPN back in October.
今年八月首次傳出這位30歲的歌手將參加超級碗中場秀的消息,《華爾街日報》透露佩里、酷玩樂隊和蕾哈娜是這項高調(diào)工作的候選人。當(dāng)時有傳言說全國橄欖球聯(lián)盟想讓這些藝人支付一部分他們的中場秀出場費給聯(lián)盟,以此作為被選中的補償。但佩里說她不會參與這項為表演付費的方案?!拔也皇悄欠N自掏腰包參加中場秀表演的女生?!蓖晔路菖謇镌鴮SPN電視臺說。
