Rihanna is the halftime act for Super Bowl LVII on Feb. 12, 2023, at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Fans are excited to see the pop star rock the halftime show and are anticipating what she may perform. Here’s hoping her repertoire will include fan favorites like “Umbrella,” “Rude Boy,” “What’s My Name” and “Work.” Some people are speculating about which surprise guests might be joining her on stage.
She’s worked with a multitude of other artists, including as Drake, DJ Khaled, Kendrick Lamar, T.I., and even Nicki Minaj but chances are slim she’ll be performing with Champagne Papi. Page Six reported that she’ll be going on tour after the big day, but nothing has been confirmed by Rihanna.
Here are five times Rihanna left her mark on stage.
