The NFL is speaking out after rumors swirled that Lady Gaga had been told to steer clear of political comments during her upcoming Super Bowl halftime show performance.

It was claimed by Entertainment Tonight that the singer, who was a staunch supporter of Democratic candidate Hilary Clinton, had been instructed to keep her mouth shut about the election and incoming president Donald Trump.

But the NFL called the story 'unsourced nonsense' on Tuesday, TMZ Sports reported.

The football body blamed the rumors on 'people trying to stir up controversy where there is none.'

'The Super Bowl is a time when people really come together,' a NFL spokesperson told the website.

'Lady Gaga is focused on putting together an amazing show for fans and we love working with her on it; we aren’t going to be distracted by this.'

Rumor has it: Other gossip reports suggest she wants to sing from the dome of Houston's NRG Stadium during Super Bowl LI

Gaga was announced as the headliner for the upcoming Super Bowl LI, set to take place at the NRG Stadium in Houston, in September.

The star is no stranger to putting on an unforgettable show, and it's been rumoured she will be taking her upcoming Super Bowl performance to a whole new level.

Page Six reported the pop diva wanted to sing from the top of the stadium's dome.

The stadium has a retractable roof, but speculation has emerged that the star's performance would require cutting a hole through the roof.

As the roof itself is already retractable, a source told the website: 'I'm not sure why they would need to cut a hole in the roof.'

A source also told the website Gaga will have a special - and so far unidentified- guest join her for her halftime show.

The source added it was particularly difficult finding someone to appear with Gaga, adding that two sources declined the chance to perform with her for the show.
