NFL: Beyoncé not the cause of Super Bowl blackout

The Associated Press, Monday, February 4, 2013, 9:59am (PST)

NEW YORK (AP) -- Don't blame Beyoncé for blowing the lights out at the Super Bowl.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Monday that the halftime show was "absolutely not" the cause of the power outage that darkened the Superdome for half an hour during Sunday's broadcast.

Beyoncé was the halftime performer at Sunday night's game and used plenty of power to light up the stage. Some had joked that her electrifying performance was to blame for the outage.

Beyoncé's 13-minute set included hits "Crazy in Love," ''Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" and a Destiny's Child reunion.
