About this episode

Rihanna is back, baby! After a five-year absence from the stage, RiRi made her comeback last night during halftime at the Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. The “Diamonds” singer delivered a 13-minute medley of her greatest hits, but it wasn’t just Rihanna’s performance that got people talking. She kicked off her set with a baby bump reveal, by patting her tummy, and went on to make history as the first pregnant person ever to headline a halftime show. Rihanna certainly knows how to create a stir, and there was a lot of build-up and anticipation leading up to her return to the stage. But did Ms. Fenty deliver?
