Who's performing at Super Bowl 2023
This year's Super Bowl half-time performance will be by popstar Rihanna. She will be seen performing live for the first time since 2016.
The Barbadian singer, who had refused to perform at Super Bowl in 2019 in protest against racism, said she will use the stage this year to represent black women and immigrants.
"It's important for me to do this, this year. It's important for representation. It's important for my son to see this," the singer, who welcomed her first child May last year, said.
History-making moment expected
This year, for the first time in Super Bowl history, an all-women crew will conduct the pre-game flypast in Arizona.
An ecstatic member of the crew said she couldn't describe her happiness in words.
"It doesn’t get bigger than the Super Bowl, and I am humbled and honored to be able to participate with my friends and fellow Naval Aviators as part of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," Lieutenant Katie Martinez told CNN.
