Rihanna’s Halftime Show Was Most-Watched Ever
Rihanna’s Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show was the most-watched ever halftime show in history.
Rihanna’s February 12 halftime show, her first in over five years, drew nearly 121.02 million viewers, according to Nielsen. She announced her pregnancy and sang a medley of her best hits during the historic performance.
This number beats the 2015 Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks, which drew 114.44 million viewers (not including streaming), which has sparked a challenge on TikTok.
This year’s average viewership also beat the 2017 Super Bowl between the Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots (113.67 million). Roc Nation tweeted the good news on Tuesday.
The singer will play Smurfette in Paramount’s The Smurfs Movie, another new film role, which has fans still wondering if they will ever get a new album from Rihanna with everything going on in her life and career.
