«Breaking News» Maroon 5's Adam Levine responds to critics who urged band not to perform at Super Bowl LIII

Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine has responded to critics who urged the band not to perform at Super Bowl LIII in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick, hinting that the halftime show will include a social message.  


'I'm not in the right profession if I can't handle a little bit of controversy. It is what it is, we expected it,' Levine said in an interview on Thursday with Entertainment Tonight, three days ahead of the big game in Atlanta.


'We'd like to move on with it, and like I said earlier, speak though the music,' Levine said.


Maroon 5 came under scrutiny when a petition signed by more than 113,000 fans demanded that they withdraw from performing at the Super Bowl to support Kaepernick and other players who kneel during the national anthem.

The singer delivered a reassuring message to Kaepernick's supporters, saying: 'They will be [heard] - that's all I want to say because I don't want to spoil anything.' 


'To make people understand, we got you,' he said. 'We got you.' 


It followed the surprising word that Maroon 5 would not participate in a pre-game press conference on Wednesday as is traditional - though Levine insisted in the interview that the NFL had canceled the press conference, and would not comment further. 


Levine said that he had done deep soul searching before accepting the halftime gig, which other artists, including Rihanna and Pink, had reportedly turned down in solidarity with Kaepernick.


ET's Kevin Frazier asked Levine whether the controversy had affected how the band will approach the performance. 


Levine replied: 'I could say yes and no, because honestly I think that being in a band and being an artist and publicly appearing and performing, you have to take into account all of the things that are surrounding you, so in that way it's no different from any other concert.'

Despite the controversy, Levine insisted that he looked forward to performing at the game on Sunday. 


'Literally I've never been more exited in my entire life to present this to the people, because I believe it's truly a reflection of all of us,' he said. 


Maroon 5 will be joined by Atlanta-based rapper Big Boi and Travis Scott during the halftime performance. Gladys Knight will sing the national anthem. 


Levine boasted that the show would include the 'biggest hip hop presence that there's ever been.'


Maroon 5's decision to perform followed a slew of artists saying that they would decline the gig, in solidarity with Kaepernick, who has sued the league after no team hired him when he opted out of his contract with the San Francisco 49ers in 2017.


Kaepernick famously began kneeling during the national anthem before games to protest what he called police brutality and racial discrimination.  


Jay-Z alluded to his feelings in a recent song that he declined to perform at the Super Bowl, and Amy Schumer refused to appear in a TV ad during the game.


Cardi B said she won't take the Super Bowl halftime stage until Kaepernick gets a job, but she will perform at a downtown Atlanta concert next week.


Perhaps in response to the backlash, Maroon 5 on Tuesday announced a joint charity donation with Interscope Records and the NFL of $500,000 to Big Brothers Big Sisters of America.


In a recent interview with The Associated Press, PJ Morton, Maroon 5's keyboardist, said he felt the heat of his band's decision to perform at the Super Bowl.


'This is definitely a controversial year, but it's something I've wanted to do my whole life. As musician it's the biggest stage you could ever play,' he said.


'Our job as musicians is to provide a service and make people feel good, and I think that's going to be our mission - just to have a good time and do what we do,' he added. 'I'm excited to play on that stage, man. I watched halftime shows my whole life. I want to be there.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
