It’s official - Rih is pregnant

[KrisJ]

1. Congrats to her!!! Genuinely happy for her! She really doesn’t want to do music - clearly seen by the performance tonight 
2. Poor ha fans 

[GlitterRain]

Congratulations, Rihanna! 
 

Not her fans expecting a new album or a tour and getting a new baby 

[warioaddams]

It was obvious, she didn't dance, she didn't wear heels, congrats Rih, just as Britney her priority was always a family, her career came second.

He was onto something 😳

So I will restate what I said. I said her vocals were good (there were a few live ones sprinkled), absolutely spectacular stage and lighting (one of the best I have seen for this type of show) but boring performance. But knowing she is pregnant, wow. That is Olympic level effort. Holy sheiiit. A friggin guest would have amplified the energy and would have switched the perception a bit

[jonloch1]

So i take it the tour announcement that was supposed to be following isnt happening! 

[JayTawndre]

Congratulations Rih

Guess that new album won't be out anytime soon either lol... she's probably popping out dem kids one after another while she can and then will get back into things. I have friends who've done that. But that also means it'll be a long time before we see her perform again unless she chooses to have someone else help raise her kids.

I am genuinely not trying to be rude

But this whole thing is bizarre.

Why perform randomly with no new music, album, or anything to gain, especially when she just gave birth? She should have spent the time bonding with her newborn AND enjoying her second child.

Yes, she is a billionaire and doesn't need anything to gain, but it's so weird. She should have waited. No dancing and low energy... I just don't really understand.

No dancing? She danced quite a bit?

That was the weirdest strategy from her to accept to do it pregnant without no promo to come,  it would be better if she waiter next year and have at least a new song to perform

while Pink is out with a new album and she is very loved by Americans 

Pink will prob be asked next year. She’ll be swinging from one side to the other of the stadium!

Not to her usual standards of dancing...

Obviously her being pregnant hindered any full-on dancing 

[MikeHunt]

She was announced as the halftime show performer in September, so maybe she didn’t know she was pregnant at the time she accepted the spot. She looks 4-5 months along. I think this is why she said there’s like 30 different versions of the set list because of what she could physically handle. 

[Stefani]

New album delayed until 2029 I guess.

was she really pregnant accepting it? idk how far is she but i can think that she  find out after. And then that-cancel everything? Ofc no. They could at least add some performers to make it more entertaining. But i also think at the end of the day Rihanna was like i am going to do it and i am going to do it solo. What would be my moment to shine. And honestly it looked like it was moment but moment she celebrated her music career and   wrapped it  up for good. SHe can go back to parenting and doing fashion line now. I will say it again i think they need a greatest hits now-they going to sell it really good. Her fans will eat it up. Because i don't see Rihanna wanting to make any music. She still can go back in years if she will feel like she inspired to do it again. 

[Groundbreaking]

Yay! Congratulations!

I do not think she was pregnant (or knew) when she accepted. No one would really want to do it like that.
