The story behind Rihanna's Super Bowl show: 'It's nothing like you ... (AZCentral.com)

The team behind Rihanna's Super Bowl halftime show at State Farm Stadium in Glendale dish on how they built a show as iconic as the singer herself.

I’m gonna be the best musical director that I can be.' It’s a different time, a different energy in a different space so that we can create something that stands alone and continues to be iconic." We came out and said, 'OK, we’re gonna work together with the NFL and try to improve upon not just the show but different issues altogether." "She managed to create a look for the production that’s never actually been done in a halftime show," Collins says. "And that’s really hard to do, considering the things that have been done over the years. It takes a lot of work to get there." "There are some people, like my auntie, who’s 80 years old, that may not watch football and just tune in for the halftime show now. "They knew that she’s an icon and that she'd bring something different to the halftime show," Collins says. Once you have that, it’s pretty easy to build out the rest of it." "She performs for the love of it," he says. And I must say, Rihanna has pushed the bar." "I mean, she’s obviously halftime material — and then some," she says. 1, she's focused on her line of Fenty Beauty cosmetics and Savage X Fenty lingerie, and she gave birth to her first child, a son, in May 2022.

What Rihanna taught me about intersectionality and inclusion (Chemistry World)

[report](https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/about-deloitte/articles/covering-in-the-workplace.html) that they curate their identity to fit in the workplace. With this critical understanding, we can begin to deconstruct the increased hypervisibility and tokenism, isolation and exclusion that female chemists of colour (and others) experience. I don’t know what it’s like to want to return to an HBCU [Historically Black College and University] to teach, but I know it’s important to you.’ While so many others ignored such a core part of my identity, in those moments, I felt seen and, in turn, valued. She shows us that if we want everyone with the potential to contribute to our most pressing scientific challenges to join our ranks, we must look more carefully at the existing institutions and toxic cultures into which we expect people to contort themselves. This persisting gap can only be explained using an intersectional approach that acknowledges that women of colour employed in science and engineering are more likely to be divorced, separated or never married, slightly more likely to have children in the household, and more likely to be unemployed or underemployed. One evening during a time in which I felt invisible and unwelcome in science, I succumbed to the hype of Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty What was most impactful for me was seeing the range of models in the show: voluptuous to svelte, albino to dark-skinned, young to old, disabled to non-disabled, feminine to androgynous to masculine. No, the clothes seemed designed to accentuate the most beautiful parts of these bodies! At the graduate level, the underrepresentation of women of colour is further exacerbated; they received just 3.7% of doctorates earned by US citizens and permanent residents in the physical sciences. At first glance, that looks a lot like parity; however, a closer look reveals that only 11% of the degrees were earned by women from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, who comprise 17.7% of the population. As a Black/Creole and Asian, remarried mother of a six-year-old and only child to ageing parents, I can attest to the challenges this brings forth. The Barbados-born music icon and entrepreneur had the media’s attention as the world’s wealthiest female musician, even before welcoming her first child and headlining the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show.

Ahead of Rihanna's Super Bowl Sunday 2023 halftime show at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, we countdown her best songs of all time.

[this soulful slow jam](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np30lwvSoPY), from the tone on that guitar lick that opens the record to the vocal blend on the “What are you willing to do?” part. [What's shocking is how long it took Rihanna to realize that she hadn't done a song called "S&M" yet.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdS6HFQ_LUc) Is it kinky by the numbers? And that hard-hitting dance beat is topped by an impassioned vocal, Rihanna demanding, “Want you to make me feel like I’m the only girl in the world / Like I’m the only one that you’ll ever love / Like I’m the only one who knows your heart.” [the lyrics are occasionally kind of funny](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3UjJ4wKLkg), which offsets the schmaltz. [this song fits her outfits better with its throbbing club beat and electronic handclaps](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1mU6h4Xdxc) while her voice is filtered through some of the quirkiest Auto-Tune sorcery since Cher asked us whether or not we believe in a life after love for an overall effect that effortlessly picks up on the New Wave vibe of "SOS." [brooding ballad driven by a nagging dance beat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWA2pjMjpBs), RiRi's 12th chart-topping entry on the Billboard Hot 100 was written by Sia in collaboration with the song's producers, Benny Blanco and Stargate. [that beat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEauWw9ZGrA), a thumping precursor to “Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” is undeniable. “That’s the way it was / You was good on the low for a faded (expletive) / on some faded love.” She doesn’t need his white horse or his carriage.

[anti-romantic anthem is one of the edgier moments](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfN4PVaOU5Q) on her latest album, musically and lyrically. “The only problem is that you was using me in a different way that I was using you / But now that I know it’s not meant to be / You gotta go, I gotta wean myself off of you.” The production is a richly textured gem, making excellent use of acoustic guitar and gloomy strings.

Les bonzes du circuit ont cogné à la porte de celui qui était alors toujours considéré comme le roi de la pop. La performance de Prince durant la pause du match entre les Colts d’Indianapolis et les Bears de Chicago avait déjà tout ce qu’il fallait pour passer à l’histoire quand la vedette a enfilé sa guitare spéciale « Purple Rain » et que les premières notes de l’immense ballade du mémorable album et film du même nom ont retenti dans le Dolphin Stadium, à Miami.
