Hello Mike!

I was watching for that.  And honestly, there ARE moments when  
her mic is down but her voice is still heard.

However, at the end, she raises her mic and says "thank you.."  
or something like that, so.. maybe she had the opportunity to  
sing along with recorded material.  That's not quite lip-sync.

It is said that traditionally following an SB halftime  
performance/exposure, that artist sees a dramatic increase in  
sales/streams etc.. of their material.  And the artists don't  
get paid to be there; it's a complete artist's expense.
