Rihanna made her triumphant return to the stage on Sunday night in Glendale, as she delivered a stunning solo act in the Super Bowl LVII halftime show.
Rihanna began the show high above the field on one of many floating platforms, and eventually was lowered to the stage to join a colossal team of dancers. Many fans were expecting A-list surprise guests given Rihanna’s extensive discography, but Rihanna flew solo for the entirety of her performance.
It was Rihanna’s public performance since the Grammy Awards in 2018.
Here’s what fans had to say about Rihanna’s Super Bowl halftime show:

Props to @rihanna for not even trying to lip sync. She’s barely even holding the mic up to her mouth.😂

Rihanna just did what most halftime performers, male or female can’t do…slayed and stayed fully clothed. Legend.
