Rihanna
has condensed her career into
13 energetic minutes
of electronic pop at her
Super Bowl halftime
performance , which pits the Philadelphia Eagles against the Kansas City Chiefs in Phoenix.
The artist (and more than a dozen of her dancers) has appeared on a platform in the center of the stadium, an original staging at the level of
one of the most important musical shows of the year
by number of viewers and by the complexity of the editing and broadcasting.
But what has most attracted the attention of the performance, the first that Rihanna offered in six years, has been that under the baggy red jumpsuit that she wore, it was clearly perceived that she is
pregnant again
.
In May of last year, she was the mother of a son with rapper ASAP Rocky.
"
When you are a mother you feel that you can conquer the world
and that you can do anything," Rihanna had said this week at a press conference at Apple Music, sponsor of the event.
With a repertoire that is more dancepop than R&B, dancing and executing the choreographies without exercising too much and with numerous pre-recorded vocal parts, Rihanna has started singing
Bitch Better Have My Money
,
Where Have You Been
,
Only Girl (In the World)
,
We Found Love
and
Rude Boy
.
The platforms where Rihanna and some of her dancers were on touched down and the main part of the performance took place along the field, in which she performed
Work
,
Wild Thoughts Pour It Up
and two very special versions, one of Kanye West (
All of the Lights
) and another by Jay-Z (Run This Town).
The performance ended with two of the biggest hits for the 34-year-old singer who is one of the biggest blockbusters of the century:
Umbrella
and
Diamonds

To stay relevant in today's pop, stars need to constantly generate stimuli: a continual cascade of new music and new photos and videos and appearances and collaborations...
However, it had been
more than five years since Rihanna's last performance
, when she performed a song at the 2018 Grammy Awards gala. More than six years had passed since her
last concert
: it was in November 2016, at the end of from
Anti
's tour .
A very long time, especially when you consider that the first decade of her career was hectic: she released eight albums and headlined seven major tours between 2005 and 2016.
These last six years with hardly any music have completely coincided with the creation and buoyant development of her cosmetics brand,
Fenty Beauty
, in alliance with the luxury conglomerate LVMH.
It is in this prosperous company that Rihanna bases her current position as a billionaire, according to
Forbes
(the magazine estimates her
net worth at 1,310 million euros
).
An actress rather than a singer these days, Rihanna released her first songs in six years last fall, shortly after becoming a mother.
Born Again
and
Lift me Up
are those two novelties, included in the soundtrack of
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
:
Lift me Up
is
nominated for an Oscar for best song
.
