Rihanna returned to live performance after 5 years and the Internet cannot stop talking about it. She performed her hit songs like ‘Work’ and ‘B*tch Better Have My Money’. Moreover, her performance had been highly anticipated ever since she became a mother. RiRi and A$AP Rocky share a nine-month-old body. But people quickly noticed something when they saw Rihanna hit the floating stage. She looked pregnant! Yes, the ‘Wild Thoughts’ singer is pregnant again, as confirmed by her rep.
The 34-year-old singer rocked the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, where the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs were competing. Rihanna also sang ‘Where Have You Been’, ‘Only Girl (In The World)’, ‘Rude Boy’, and ‘We Found Love’ during the Super Bowl 57 halftime show. She also performed ‘Wild Thought’ and ‘Pour It Up’. Now the world is waiting for her new album. It’s been seven years since the multi-platinum artist released an album.
Rihanna performs at Super Bowl
Rihanna, before the show, explains that she initially second-questioned her decision to perform at the Super Bowl. However, she decided to take the leap. She says, “I was like, ‘You sure? I’m three months postpartum. Should I be making major decisions like this right now? I might regret this.’ When you become a mom, there’s something that just happens where you feel like you could take on the world — you can do anything. And the Super Bowl is one of the biggest stages in the world, so as scary as that was … there’s something exhilarating about the challenge of it all. It’s important for my son to see that.”
When it came to her set, Rihanna explains how tough it was to fit her 18-year-long catalog into a 13-minute set. She explains, “The setlist was the biggest challenge. That was the hardest part — deciding how to maximize 13 minutes, but also celebrate. That’s what the show’s going to be — it’s going to be a celebration of my catalog in the best way. I think we did a pretty good job at narrowing it down.” Her recent song was ‘Lift Me Up’ which was a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman for the film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

When Rihanna said she was thinking about bringing a guest, she was referring to her pregnancy and we didn’t even catch it. Rihanna is PREGNANT!
Pregnant Rihanna performing Only Girl in the world, fireworks sparking and transitioning into We found love? Oh I screamed. And her vocals are so motherly
I don’t think @rihanna understand the level of excitement she brought to everyone that loves her and her music. She sang classics that made us go way back. Danced and sang while pregnant. Epic! #FentyBowl #RihannaSuperBowl #Rihanna
