Most Super Bowl halftime shows are not limited to one artist. In previous years, at least two or three stars performed at halftime. However, at the Super Bowl LVII halftime show, Rihanna is the only listed performer.
Will Patrick Mahomes defeat Jalen Hurts?
That said, according to Digital Trends, the show will be produced by Roc Nation, which already has an affiliation with Jay-Z. Jay-Z is a top candidate for a cameo appearance, but no one can say for certain whether he will perform. As it stands, Rihanna's first live performance in seven years will be on Super Bowl Sunday in front of the entire country.
Will there be any other musical performances during the Super Bowl?
If you are hoping to hear more voices than just Rihanna's, you're in luck as there will be a couple of other performances to keep an eye out for. During the Super Bowl broadcast, multi-Grammy award winner Chris Stapleton, Babyface and Sheryl Lee Ralph are also expected to perform.
Chris Stapleton will perform the national anthem before the game and Babyface will sing America the Beautiful. Sheryl Lee Ralph will sing Lift Every Voice and Sing.
Aside from that, of course, there will be a full football game to watch between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. Patrick Mahomes will be looking to secure his second Super Bowl title while Jalen Hurts will be looking to get his first in his first appearance in the big game.
Another interesting storyline is Andy Reid facing his former team with whom he saw plenty of success earlier in his career, albeit without a Super Bowl ring.
The Eagles are in the big game for the second time in about half a decade and will hope to cap off a fantastic season with the ultimate prize.
