There was a long-awaited Rihanna concert Sunday night (and some football).
The singer took the stage at the 2023 Super Bowl in Arizona for her first live performance in five years, belting out a powerhouse medley of some of her greatest hits from a stunning arrangement of floating stages above the field. She performed the hits without any guest appearances which had been the subject of much speculation alongside an enormous crew of backup dancers clad in white puffer tracksuits.
Suspended in the air, Rihanna started out the set with Bitch Better Have My Money, and floated between ground and sky for renditions of Where Have You Been, Only Girl in the World, We Found Love, Rude Boy, Work, Wild Thoughts, Pour it Up, All of the Lights, Run This Town and Umbrella, finishing with Diamonds.
Following widespread speculation the singer was announcing her pregnancy in her performance, the singers representative confirmed shes pregnant with her second child. She and her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky, welcomed a son in May.
