How much money does a performer charge to appear on the Super Bowl halftime show?
The answer is simple: nothing. The artists in charge of performing at the halftime show charge nothing for their performance, as the publicity the event itself gives them will increase their sales stratospherically and those are the real profits.
Under football league policy, the NFL is responsible for covering all production costs, which can range from $600,000 to $10 million in 2017, according to Forbes. Figures that have probably risen considerably over the years.
In fact, this aspect can turn out to be a lot. For example, the performance of the year 2020, according to Esquire. In this edition, two of the most recognized performers in the world appeared in the Super Bowl halftime show: Jennifer López and Shakira.
At that time, the production costs of the performance of the two singers were really high: 13 million dollars for 14 minutes. All this paid for by the NFL, organizer of the event.
