To tell the news, Riri posted a photo where she holds a football. The performance will be held at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, United States. Now 34 years old, Rihanna already performed in 2010 at the opening of Super Bowl XLIV, between the Saints and Colts teams, when she was just 21 years old.

However, in 2018, she reportedly turned down a new offer from the NFL, in support of player Colin Kaepernick, a former quarterback who kneeled during the United States anthem in protest against police violence and racial injustice. Subsequent to the act, Colin was expelled from the league.
