Another superstar enters the Super Bowl halftime conversation following Taylor Swift rumors

While the NFL season just began, it's hard to ignore that Super Bowl LX is just a few months away. And one of the biggest questions outside of who will be playing in that game is who will be performing at halftime.

Taylor Swift's name certainly has been thrown around, with much speculation surrounding whether or now she will take the stage on Sunday, Feb. 8? Even NFL commissioner Roger Goodell wasn't ruling anything out.

“We would always love to have Taylor play. She is a special, special talent, and obviously she would be welcome at any time,” Goodell said during an appearance on the Today Show.

“Is it in the works?” Savannah Guthrie asked.

“I can’t tell you anything about it,” Goodell replied.

“Is it a maybe?” Guthrie followed up.

“It’s a maybe,” he said.

However, there's another name that has now come up.

Page Six reports that Adele "has been approached about playing the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show," but nothing has been confirmed. The 16-time Grammy Award winning artist would certainly put on one heck of a show.

Now, we'll just have to wait and see who it ends up being.

Swifties spot Easter Eggs about potential Super Bowl halftime performance

There are two main hints Swifties picked up on.

Taylor Swift’s New Sourdough Obsession

During her appearance on New Heights in August 2025, Swift talked about a new obsession.

“I have a different baking obsession every six months, [and] right now, we’re very deep in a sourdough obsession that has taken over my life,” Swift said. “Sourdough has taken over my life in a huge way. I’m really talking about bread 60 percent of the time now. It’s become a huge factor.”

Fans then connected her saying “60 percent” to it being Super Bowl 60. And then, the game will be played at Levi’s Stadium, which is home to the San Francisco 49ers, and their mascot is known as Sourdough Sam

Numerology

Swift is a big fan of numerology, with her favorite number being 13. However, fans noticed she say the number 47 numerous times on New Heights.

“Thank you for screaming for, like, 47 seconds for me, that was so nice,” Swift said to Jason Kelce after his introduction. She then said that she visited “47,000 countries” on The Eras Tour. And not to mention, the 47th stop of her Eras Tour was at Levi’s Stadium.

And now… we know the NFL is on board. So, a Swift Super Bowl in 2026 is clearly not out of the question.
