Pop superstar Taylor Swift says she’s not planning to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show anytime soon—though it’s not for the reason many fans may think.

During an Oct. 6 appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” Swift addressed recent speculation that she had declined to headline the NFL’s biggest event. The 14-time Grammy winner clarified that no formal offer was made and dismissed circulating rumors that she turned down the opportunity over performance footage ownership.
