NFL doesn't have to beg, or pay, for acts By Michael McCarthy, USA TODAY 
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/super/2006-02-02-super-bowl-entertainment_x.htm


"With the exception of travel and production expenses, the NFL has
never paid appearance fees to the Stones, Paul McCartney, U2, Michael
Jackson, Shania Twain, Britney Spears, Diana Ross, Gloria Estefan,
Diddy, Clint Black, Tanya Tucker, Kid Rock or other halftime
performers.

Why do they sing for free? For the chance to perform on the world's
biggest stage. And their ability to cash in later."
