The Super Bowl LVII was a grand affair. That being said, the entire allure of the biggest football game of the season over the years hasn’t been restricted to only the match. Every year, the Super Bowl enthralls and catches the fancy of fans watching around the globe. But if you thought halftime was just for the analysts and pundits in the USA, you thought wrong! One of the biggest selling points of the Bowl is the famed and storied half-time show. Many big stars and artists have graced the stage in the past, and this time, it was arguably the biggest of them all; Rihanna. What’s more? Lewis Hamilton was a fan of this, too!

Rihanna dazzled the crowd in attendance and the millions watching back at home with an amazing half-time performance. The entire set lasted for about 13 minutes, and the 34-year-old singer had everyone gripped to their seats. Naturally, this would go down as one of the most iconic performances in the history of the Super Bowl. Everyone has been going on about how brilliant Rihanna was. However, she had one particularly special fan swooning over her performance on Instagram.
