The world’s most famous Avon lady (Ar RiRi) makes her return to music at the Super Bowl Halftime Show on the 12th of February.

Lets take a look at her most iconic moments:

No idea how "woke" comes into this or why it's a bad thing. You're gonna crap yourself when you find out that she supports BLM...

This was to whoever said it was like the emperors new clothing up above, giving her a woke platform.

Rihanna's musical success is the modern day retelling of the Emperor's New Clothes, except the boy has been written out or has chosen to "have that conversation" in a "safe space" where Rihanna can "tell her truth".
I didn’t say this ⬆

Rihanna is pretty a relaxed person, I think she just speaks her mind on what matters to her. I don’t think she’s playing any kind of game with wokeness, she seems to be open minded and not afraid to say something

I wonder what what the future is for Rhianna? Her music career was never going to have longevity with the image crafted and she easily makes way more with makeup.

She's in the same position that Cameron Diaz is with her movie career.
Honestly Ri has done well, she doesn’t ever have to work I don’t think she needs or wants any validation? I just get the vibe off Rihanna that she will do something if she’s in the mood to 🤣. Same as Cameron. She will only come back if she feels like it and it’s good enough and I love her for that. What’s not to like someone just being content with life, I think it’s great.

I think she will never tour again, she will do plenty of fenty, have babies, and go to some parties sometimes. It’s kind of refreshing to see a celebrity who isn’t constantly trying to do image work like those kardashians

What an absolute grift! From day one of her fame with her whiny, screechy and shaky “singing” voice she’s rattled out some decent songs. And because her ass has remained unaffected by gravity, and maybe (definitely) sucked a bit of Jay Z cock back in the day, she’s managed to hone her limited skills to billionaire status. Straight out of the Kardashian’s Playbook

I mean but it is a nice breath of fresh air to see a celebrity who broadly still has the same face she started with & I'm all for her success in other areas.

I think the photoshoot has a bit of a creepy vibe for their first family shoot. The electrocuted Elvira wig? The cot is giving Rosemary's baby vibes. Not making eye contact with the baby but eye-f*cking the camera.

I know not everyone does the earth mother floral shoots but why so gothic and dark.
Do we want to see the earth mother yummy mummy white linens in a green field filled with flowers?
How boring.
Rihanna doesn't play it safe

Her performance was underwhelming. My bar is low for Rihanna but she gave even less than I imagined.

Rihanna is a pretty girl who got lucky, then rode it 'til the wheels fell off.
I don't think she's delusional and knows that she has limited talent. She understood she was a product and then finessed it for her riches.

She's never given a f-ck about her stage show. There's little discernable difference in her performance skills since she debuted. Why bother improving when her Navy will still kiss her ass and make excuses?

Her appeal has always been aesthetic and she acknowledges that she took off after her haircut. Then her fashion looks (when she had a decent stylist). She has a good way with the camera though, would be a decent model as she's tall. People just fell in love with her personality and unpolished carefree vibe.

I don't see the logic in accepting the Superbowl performance if she's not returning to music and extending her maternity leave. (I think it's mean to string her fans along although I don't see what they see in her).
I'd have rather seen Usher (legend with residency to promote). Taylor Swift would have made more sense as she has new material although she's not my cup of tea. Of the new crop Lizzo or Doja Cat could have put on a better show.

It was a free concert over a decade ago?
Yeah and she was shit in her ‘prime’ was my point

Aside from that I actually do like her. She hasn’t gone down the insane surgery route, she seems like she DGAF about fame half the time. She’s done well in life so I admire her for that. She’s just really shit live and no one can ever convince me otherwise 🤣

Rihanna has about 40 hit singles so there was always going to be something missing in a 13 minute set.

It was an interval act at a sports game, not a Rihanna concert.

I don't know how RiRi made it, she must have been riding Jay Z she's not that strong vocally and she's pretty but not stunning.
I feel like she was just a different sexual aesthetic to Beyoncé, so JayZ could use Rihanna to to do all the scantily clad writhing around and club bangers so Bey could focus on her strong woman/power aesthetic

Her dancing reminded me of those gifs of Dua Lipa that people make fun of.

I like Rihanna but her low energy, DGAF style just doesn't work for the superbowl which should be a spectacle. Including so many songs but none of them getting any attention or variety just made it bland.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard Rihanna ever use any of those phrases. Maybe you’re mixing her up with someone else?

The performance had so much potential. She barely sang, the dancers looked ridiculous, the choreography was terrible and she performed maybe two of her old classics. The entire thing needed replanning.
You might need to rewatch it and count again

I wish I could see more of the interpreter’s performance, she really made more effort than Rih 😂
