The 2023 Super Bowl is just T-minus two days away, which means it’s time to frantically scroll through Twitter to learn #sports lingo, text all your group chats about the low-key coincidence that Tom Brady is in his flop era after splitting from Giselle 👀, and look up the best seven-layer dip recipes only to buy one at the last minute from your local Trader Joe’s (maybe this one’s just me…). Either way, it’s still an exciting time, and we’ve already got tons of intel about the big game—specifically when it comes to the halftime performance, which is the only reason *I* tune in every single year. Let’s get into it!
When is the 2023 Super Bowl?
Glad ya asked! Rihanna’s comeback concert The Super Bowl will take place on Sunday, February 12, at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Mark your calendars, people!!! That’s only two days away. I repeat, TWO DAYS AWAY!!
Who is playing in the Super Bowl?
That would be the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles! Although according to NBC Sports a few weeks back, these teams were actually tied for the second best odds, followed by the San Francisco 49ers, Cincinnati Bengals, and Dallas Cowboys, so I guess it’s not *that* surprising. However, I, for one, am floored as I haven’t watched a single game this season, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
How can I watch the Super Bowl this year?
The Super Bowl changes networks often, and this year, it’ll air on FOX. Those of you who have cable can easily tune in, but for those who don’t have cable (same, lol), you can still watch via live TV subscriptions to streamers like Hulu, FuboTV, and YouTube TV.
Who is performing during the Super Bowl Halftime Show?
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that Rihanna announced she’ll be headlining the halftime show this year:
When asked by Entertainment Tonight in November 2022 about her plans for the show, the singer revealed that she wants to “incorporate a lot of culture.” “I want to incorporate different aspects of entertainment and things that I just enjoy and bring it to the stage.…I want to celebrate the music that I’ve made.”
Jay-Z, who is continuing his partnership with the NFL this year, also mused, “Rihanna is a generational talent, a woman of humble beginnings who has surpassed expectations at every turn…a person born on the small island of Barbados who became one of the most prominent artists ever. Self-made in business and entertainment.” Plus, the organization’s head of music, Seth Dudowsky, chimed in and added, “Rihanna is a once-in-a-generation artist who has been a cultural force throughout her career.”
P.S. RiRi has also blessed fans with a mini teaser for the performance:
Anyway! Make sure to check back for more updates on the Super Bowl as soon as we have ’em.
