How much do Super Bowl halftime performers get paid?
Confession time — I have never watched a Super Bowl halftime show. Now that that’s off my chest I can also say I have never watched a Super Bowl game. Yeah, I am a nerd! Instead of watching football I was, I don’t know, playing Final Fantasy or watching Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Even never having experienced a Super Bowl halftime show firsthand, I have seen some pictures and heard how ludicrously extravagant they are. Hearing about all the smoke and lasers makes it sound like musicians are recreating Star Wars up there.
I can’t imagine how expensive all that would be to set up, and I hear that a couple people watch the Super Bowl every year so it must make at least a little money. If it costs you basically $1,000 just to park outside the stadium, the performers must be getting a good cut of that cash, right?
