Rihanna

The team behind Rihanna's Super Bowl halftime show at State Farm Stadium in Glendale dish on how they built a show as iconic as the singer herself.

I’m gonna be the best musical director that I can be.' It’s a different time, a different energy in a different space so that we can create something that stands alone and continues to be iconic." We came out and said, 'OK, we’re gonna work together with the NFL and try to improve upon not just the show but different issues altogether." "She managed to create a look for the production that’s never actually been done in a halftime show," Collins says. "And that’s really hard to do, considering the things that have been done over the years. It takes a lot of work to get there." "There are some people, like my auntie, who’s 80 years old, that may not watch football and just tune in for the halftime show now. "They knew that she’s an icon and that she'd bring something different to the halftime show," Collins says. Once you have that, it’s pretty easy to build out the rest of it." "She performs for the love of it," he says. And I must say, Rihanna has pushed the bar." "I mean, she’s obviously halftime material — and then some," she says. 1, she's focused on her line of Fenty Beauty cosmetics and Savage X Fenty lingerie, and she gave birth to her first child, a son, in May 2022.

On Thursday, she outlined the importance of representing immigrants and Black woman by taking the stage. Twice during the performance, she stopped to slam Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act. It's why she said she wouldn't perform at the Super Bowl in 2019. "I couldn’t be an enabler. I just couldn’t be a sellout," she told

From her debut with "Pon De Replay" to ANTI highlights, these are the Rihanna classics to know before she hits the stage at Sunday's big game.

Since her first album, 2005’s Music Of The Sun, [Rihanna](https://www.avclub.com/rihanna-super-bowl-half-time-teaser-1849984699) has weathered countless trends and carved out her own eras across eight studio albums, securing a well-earned spot in the modern pantheon of Main Pop Girls. [Rihanna](https://www.avclub.com/rihanna-super-bowl-halftime-potential-guests-1850084950) describes her upcoming Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show, which marks the first time in seven years that she’ll perform her music live. As she told it in a [press conference](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-YccGwUbA8) this week, giving birth to her son made Rihanna feel fearless enough to tackle one of the most iconic stages in the business—but her nearly two decades in music set the stage for this moment.

Fans are already warming up their vocal cords for their favorite Rihanna hit and speculating about a surprise on-stage guest.

With this critical understanding, we can begin to deconstruct the increased hypervisibility and tokenism, isolation and exclusion that female chemists of colour (and others) experience. I don’t know what it’s like to want to return to an HBCU [Historically Black College and University] to teach, but I know it’s important to you.’ While so many others ignored such a core part of my identity, in those moments, I felt seen and, in turn, valued. She shows us that if we want everyone with the potential to contribute to our most pressing scientific challenges to join our ranks, we must look more carefully at the existing institutions and toxic cultures into which we expect people to contort themselves. This persisting gap can only be explained using an intersectional approach that acknowledges that women of colour employed in science and engineering are more likely to be divorced, separated or never married, slightly more likely to have children in the household, and more likely to be unemployed or underemployed. One evening during a time in which I felt invisible and unwelcome in science, I succumbed to the hype of Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty What was most impactful for me was seeing the range of models in the show: voluptuous to svelte, albino to dark-skinned, young to old, disabled to non-disabled, feminine to androgynous to masculine. No, the clothes seemed designed to accentuate the most beautiful parts of these bodies! At the graduate level, the underrepresentation of women of colour is further exacerbated; they received just 3.7% of doctorates earned by US citizens and permanent residents in the physical sciences. At first glance, that looks a lot like parity; however, a closer look reveals that only 11% of the degrees were earned by women from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, who comprise 17.7% of the population. As a Black/Creole and Asian, remarried mother of a six-year-old and only child to ageing parents, I can attest to the challenges this brings forth. The Barbados-born music icon and entrepreneur had the media’s attention as the world’s wealthiest female musician, even before welcoming her first child and headlining the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show.
