The Super Bowl halftime show is an event that generates as much excitement and anticipation as the game itself. The Apple Music Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show, led by the 9-time Grammy Award winner Rihanna in the previous season, quickly became the most-watched halftime show performance of all time. Her live performance, which marked her return after more than five years, captivated an audience of 121.017 million viewers during the February 12-dated broadcast. Notably, the same season’s matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles propelled the Super Bowl to become the most-watched in history.

As anticipation builds for this season’s big game, fans have been engaged in speculation about the halftime show performer. And rumor has it that this year’s roster includes a star who is both widely loved and equally hated.
