At long last, Rihanna has headlined the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
The nine-time Grammy winner brought the house down at the 2023 Super Bowl with her 15-minute performance. The show began with “Bitch Better Have My Money”, then she flowed into “Where Have You Been,” “Only Girl In the World,” “We Found Love,” and more of her greatest hits in what’s sure to be a memorable show that was high energy start-to-finish.
She began the show literally soaring above the field on a floating platform, decked out in a red monochrome outfit. After the first tune, she floated back down to the field and performed more of the hits. The stage was a runway of platforms lined up along the field, allowing the singer and her dancers to strut all over the place.
Rihanna’s Halftime Show was choreographed by Parris Goebel, RiRi’s frequent collaborator on the Savage x Fenty shows. Goebel joined the pop star on stage along with the fabulous crew of dancers decked out in all white and sunglasses. Other songs included “Work,” “Pour It Up,” “Wild Thoughts,” “All of the Lights,” “Run This Town,” “Umbrella,” and “Diamonds.”
Jay-Z and Blue Ivy Carter were in attendance for the game, making some fans on Twitter think the rapper would take part in the performance. Ultimately he remained a fan in the stands, but some of his hits with Rihanna, “Run This Town” and “Umbrella,” were performed.
