Rihanna Is Coming Back to Us This Weekend

Just two days remain until Super Bowl Sunday, and excitement is already building across the country for every element of The Big Game—apart, of course, from the playing and watching of football itself. puppies, calorie-dense dips, and trailers: Rihanna’s halftime performance will mark not only her ascent into the Superb Owl stratosphere—and possibly some new music, although she’s keeping her Fenty-clad lips pretty firmly closed on that point—but also her first live performance in nearly five years. The hype is building, and none of it is more intensely so than for the halftime show by Rihanna, who will finally take the stage she declined to occupy back in 2020.

There was a media day on Thursday for the Super Bowl halftime show, for which Rihanna accepted an offer to perform. She delivered exactly what I wanted from her outfit in terms of volume (the coat), complexity (the skirt), and how painful it must be to put on and keep on for any length of time (the shoes, which look like a couture knee brace). The skirt might have been a small error of judgment.

… because when she sits down, it appears as though she is on a toilet with her panties between her knees. I suppose Rihanna is the best one to make that appear hip.

Rihanna hasn’t released any new music in years, other from her song for Wakanda Forever, but I just think it’ll be entertaining to watch her perform a medley of her greatest songs. Not always do I require new. Because sometimes the thrill of the chase is the best part, I simply want to see Riri out there tearing it up on a huge stage and generating demands that she might decide she never wants to meet. Would fans now want Rihanna to finally drop something passable after all this time, or would they rather continue to enjoy the thrill of living in constant suspense? I would choose the latter. Rihanna, make them guess FOREVER.
