He returns to the scenes of Rihanna after several years of absence, it did not disappoint. It may be that there were no surprise guests or that the chosen repertoire is a compendium of his classics with no trace of recent musical novelty. But rarely will we experience a staging as bestial and as brutal as that prepared by the soloist from Barbados.
At 2:30 a.m. on February 13 at Spanish time (one less in the Canary Islands) the cameras focused on a resplendent Riri in a red fabric jumpsuit open at the top that revealed a latex bra.

But where the Canadian indulged in film production, here the only object of adoration and desire was an explosive Rihanna who devoured every shot. Gradually the chords of his hits mixed together, Where were you? Only girl in the world, We found love, Rudeboy, Job, Crazy thoughts, Pour it out, All the lights…, with the impossible movements of its dancers characterized as if it were a Michelin doll.
From the most earthly Riri, we quickly moved on to the goddess who rises to the top thanks to these platforms which generated all kinds of compositions. The fireworks engulfed the Super Bowl audience in flames, which ended without guests and without too many surprises, but with three songs closing a memorable performance: Run this town, Umbrella y Diamonds.
