Colin Kaepernick may not be a part of the NFL, but he remains a popular figure among the American audience. His philanthropic and activist deeds remain a heated debate among various entities. He was a public figure who thrived as a QB while fighting for society. Kap became popular among celebrities, and even Rihanna took a stand for the former 49ers QB.

Colin Kaepernick has received a considerable amount of media attention this offseason. He moved on with his daily life, focusing on his various projects. However, he left the door open for a return to the field. One thing is definite: he will not waste any opportunity to make a comeback in the NFL.

Rihanna is one of the world’s top pop stars, and listening to her singing is like a dream come true. Her prominence has escalated to the point where the NFL summoned her to perform at the Super Bowl LIII halftime show. However, she turned it down because of Colin Kaepernick.

Rihanna opens up regarding the situation with Vogue. She mentions, “Absolutely. I couldn’t dare do that. For what? Who gains from that? Not my people. I just couldn’t be a sellout. I couldn’t be an enabler. There’s things within that organization that I do not agree with at all, and I was not about to go and be of service to them in any way.”

After Rihanna denied performing at Super Bowl LIII, pop rock band Maroon 5 led the spectacle alongside rappers Travis Scott and Big Boi. However, the showcase came up with its own set of controversies.

Cardi B also stood for Colin Kaepernick

When Rihanna backed out from the halftime performance, the league even approached rap sensation Cardi B. The LIII Halftime spectacle — the one offered to Rihanna could have become a stepping stone in her music career. She could have risen to prominence two years after her first number one hit. Unfortunately, the rapper reveals she declined the offer because of the ongoing Colin Kaepernick situation.

According to The Associated Press, the rapper sensation expressed “mixed feelings” about dropping to perform at Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta, according to The Associated Press. She admitted it was a difficult decision because her husband, hip hop artist Offset, enjoys football. But she felt compelled to hold on with Kaepernick because he stood up for a purpose.
