NFL 'apologizes' over Super Bowl half time show snub as Kendrick Lamar performance is slammed The NFL sent a letter of apology to Lil Wayne after choosing Kendrick Lamar over the New Orleans rapper for the Super Bowl halftime show.
Prior to Sunday's show, sports commentator Skip Bayless expressed his anger that Lil Wayne had been snubbed for the New Orleans gig, while claiming the NFL issued an apology to him after offering it to Kendrick.
Bayless, who is good friends with Lil Wayne, said on his YouTube show: 'The NFL immediately sent Wayne a letter of apology.
Lil Wayne was denied the chance to headline this year's halftime show in New Orleans, a move which sparked outrage given his famous association with the Big Easy - where he was born and raised.
But he will not play Sunday’s halftime show, and he definitely won't watch a second of Sunday’s halftime show.
