Rihanna will headline the 57th BIG Game Halftime Show on February 12th in Arizona.  She confirmed the news with a photo on Instagram of her hand holding a football.

There were previous rumors about Taylor Swift headlining the halftime show.  She was apparently asked, but turned it down because she wants to finish re-recording her first six albums first.  So far she’s done two of them: “Red” and “Fearless”.  So maybe 2024?

Why would I say that? Because on February 11, 2024, the Super Bowl will take place at Allegiant Stadium and will mark the first time Las Vegas and the state of Nevada will welcome the BIG Game!

By the way, Pepsi is no longer the sponsor of the halftime show. It’s now Apple Music.
