Only Girl (In the Superbowl)

Rihanna’s halftime show performance has started controversy amongst viewers. Rihanna made a bold move to not feature a guest star in her performance, deciding to entertain over 70,000 fans by herself after not performing for about a year. She also announced her second pregnancy with A$AP Rocky. The NFL also announced that they do not pay performers, they solely cover expenses and production costs. Her setlist included: B**** Better Have My Money, 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, Umbrella, and Diamonds.
