R&B superstar Rihanna will perform at the Super Bowl halftime show.
The NFL has confirmed the 34-year-old Grammy award winner will be the headliner at the Super Bowl in Glendale, Arizona, on February 12th.
While Rihanna hasn't officially said anything about her upcoming performance, she posted this picture on her social media, which speaks for itself.
Rihanna was asked to perform in 2019 but turned it down out of solidarity with former N-F-L quarterback Colin Kaepernick and his national anthem protests."
In a statement, NFL's head of music, Seth Dudowsky said "We are thrilled to welcome Rihanna to the Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show stage. Rihanna is a once-in-a-generation artist who has been a cultural force throughout her career."
New this year is the Apple Music Stage, which replaces Pepsi's decade run as the sponsor for the halftime show.
The new deal with Apple is expected to be a multi-year partnership with the NFL.
