Likely the minimum amount they're legally allowed to pay anyone for 15 minutes on television, as the slot is meant to be unpaid.

$ 671 is likely the union mandated minimum. Usher also  likely put millions of his own money into the production like Rihanna and Abel.


I hope the exposure makes him 100 million but so far his Super Bowl boost doesn’t look very big.

I mean $670 is "nothing" in the grand scheme of things, and probably just the minimum wage for a TV appearance or something like that, for legal purposes.

Don't the performers usually get paid nothing? I remember hearing that years ago.

This is why I don't understand when artists do it at their peak. It should be done either long after your peak and you can use the publicity to launch a tour or something or after a hiatus to follow it with a comeback.

 

Kinda why The Weeknd's show kinda flopped. He was already everywhere.

it does sound funny but streaming is likely a very small percentage of that lol

I’d love $671 to walk around and sing for 15 mins

It's not a paid gig, I don't get this story.

Don’t trust a word from Twitter account like these… they just make up stupid stuff for engagement, the more they get the more they get paid

Likely the bare minimum they can be paid as part of a union.
