For the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday, Apple Music, the NFL, and Roc Nation will collaborate for the first time.
Driving the news: Rihanna’s much-anticipated halftime performance will be her first live performance in seven years.
She is one of the most popular pop performers of the last two decades, but she hasn’t released an album since 2016’s “Anti.”
In April 2022, Rihanna was added to Forbes’ Billionaires List.
What they say is this: At the Apple Music news conference on Thursday, Rihanna discussed how she was requested to appear on the show three months after giving birth to her son.
“There’s something that happens when you become a mother when you feel like you can take on the world and can accomplish anything,”
She spoke.
One of the biggest stages in the world is the Super Bowl. Even though it was terrifying for me because it had been seven years since I had performed on stage, the challenge of it all was thrilling. I must accomplish it this year. It’s crucial that my son understands that.
