Adele may be on the brink of taking center stage at one of the world's most colossal events, yet nothing has been set in stone. Sources have revealed to Page Six that the songstress has been approached to headline the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show in Santa Clara, California, though her confirmation for this coveted role remains pending. For weeks, whispers have circulated about Adele being in contention, with Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus also emerging as potential contenders. Cyrus, despite her extensive career, has yet to grace the high-profile stage.
Adele, 36, has previously attended the Super Bowl, cheering from the stands alongside her fiancé, sports agent Rich Paul. During one of her Las Vegas performances last year, she candidly admitted that her sole reason for attending was to witness Rihanna's halftime spectacle. "Last year, I went—obviously, not for the football at all. I went to watch Rihanna," she confided to her fans. Prior to the game, she even quipped, "I'm going just for Rihanna. I don't give a flying f—k."
While insiders suggest she is the frontrunner to take the stage this year, another source close to the production emphasized that she has not officially committed. Adele previously declined the opportunity, revealing to a Los Angeles audience in 2016, "First of all, I'm not doing the Super Bowl... I mean, come on, that show is not about music. I can't dance or anything like that. They were very kind, they did ask me, but I did say no."
Beyond the Super Bowl speculation, Adele is poised to unveil a new chapter of her life. According to The Mirror, she has finally consented to release an autobiography, offering fans an intimate glimpse into her meteoric rise to fame, her childhood, and her private world. "She's always said no. Finally, she is ready, and it will be Adele in her own words, beyond the headlines," a source disclosed.
Insiders also claim that the Grammy-winning artist is back in the studio, contemplating plans for a colossal stadium tour. "She loves her life out of the spotlight, but talks about another tour and even a new record have been happening," the source shared, urging fans to "watch this space." This news follows Adele's sold-out Las Vegas residency, which concluded earlier this year to widespread acclaim.
