The 34-year-old, who has not released an album since January 2016’s Anti, has spent most of the last decade growing her business empire rather than on tour. Her last public performance was at the Grammy Awards in early 2018. She also welcomed her first baby, a boy, with boyfriend A$AP Rocky in May of last year. “The wait is over,” however, with the music icon making her grand return on one of the world’s biggest stages.

While thousands of Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles fans opted to “shut up and drive” to see their respective teams face off at the State Farm Arena in Glendale, Arizona, Sunday for the the big game, millions of Americans tuned in just to see Rihanna’s highly-anticipated performance.
