I've seen Super Bowl Halftime shows much worst. Here's a list by Rollingstone magazine that ranks them...

Rihanna must have a very very very good agent who has impeccable negotiation skills. This is not the first time that I see her trashing important events by her and yet she just keeps getting invited to sing in those important venues and events and gets paid big money too. The last time I heard she got invited to sing at a fund-raising charity event (I think it's the New York Mets Gala), her appearance fee was 30% of the total amount of the funds raised. Imagine out of the entire amount of funds, 1/3 of it has to be paid to ONE person. All she does is regurgitate through her songs regardless of whether they are relevant or appropriate for the venue or the theme of the event or not. This half-time show's setup is also really bizarre; the whole thing looks like The Squid Game in white. LOL
She didnt get paid for the Super Bowl halftime show
THIS is what the Halftime Show should be:
Youtube suggested this to me. I guess even Youtube knows that Rihanna's performance sucked and tried to suggest this for me to watch as compensation. LOL

Rollingstone magazine polled entertainment organizations...they list Madonna's - 2012 Superbowl performance as a 9th ranking on the top 35 halftime shows. I didn't like Madonna's show.
To those ET members worried about which shows are appropriate for children...it's best that they worry about what their children watch on TV that has nothing to do with the SuperBowl.
Rihanna's 2023 - Superbowl performance has an 8th ranking.
My favorite is U2 - 2002 Superbowl performance...its ranked 2nd.
Here's Madonna's halftime video below...

Wrb, WHY are you send back to me the same link to the show that I have already included in my original post?
My favourite is Michael Jackson's. Rihanna's show is total crap!! Any show is better than hers. I want her agent's name. That agent is a god that can totally spin such a shit show to rank higher than Madonna's spectacular performance. Not a fan of her singing but the show's arrangement, the pageantry, the choreography was just wicked. At least it's got class.
