Here’s The Livestream For Rihanna’s Halftime Show At The Super Bowl
For those who don’t have a TV or don’t have access to Fox (the network broadcasting the Super Bowl this year), the player above should begin livestreaming Rihanna’s halftime performance shortly before 5pm PST. Because it’s also for ASL viewers, there may be a split screen showing a sign language interpreter. (Note: The NFL has uploaded the full version in the player above.)
Update: The performance is now over, and it was OK. She looked great, and the best part was that she had no special guests or duets. She deserved the spotlight all for herself. Unfortunately, we barely heard one minute of each song (sometimes not even 30 seconds), and I wish she could’ve at least done one full song. I think she gave the most time to “Diamonds,” which was nice. She definitely should’ve cut the songs that weren’t even Rihanna songs, including “All Of The Lights” (I didn’t even recognize this, but it’s a Kanye West song? barf), “Wild Thoughts” (a song with someone called DJ Khaled), and “Run This Town” (a Jay-Z song). The recorded show should be up soon, but here was the setlist:
Bitch 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
Diamonds

While we wait for Rihanna, here was Madonna’s halftime performance from 2012, widely considered the best Super Bowl halftime performance of all time (although, I always fast-forward through the dreadful “Give Me All Your Luvin'”):
