What time is Super Bowl halftime?
The real time in a game of the American Football League (NFL) is 60 minutesdivided into four periods of 15 minutes each. However, the time that really counts is the net game time, so the clock stops every time the game does, whether due to an infringement, a kickoff or a player substitution. Hence Rihanna’s ‘show’ will begin at approximately 01:45 a.m..
It will be Rihanna’s first live performance after five years of absence on stage and seven since the release of his last studio album, ‘Anti’ (2016). In the official presentation of the show, the artist assured that it is “the perfect moment” to return to acting. Furthermore, she explained that being her mother inspired her to join the project and that she did so just three months after giving birth to her first child with her boyfriend A$AP Rocky in May. “When you become a mother, there is something natural that makes you feel that you can conquer the world and do anything,” she said at the press conference.
