Can we now admit she really put on the WORST Super Bowl halftime show of all time.

Yet the public still loved it and made it viral.

Rihanna could go on stage and take a nap and people would eat it up. She's like teflon to the GP and I don't know if its because they don't expect much out of her or what, but they LOVE her and will give her so many more passes than any other pop star.

 

And weirdly I get it because despite knowing better I love her too

This is what people in here and on stan X do not seem to understand. 

Even these "bad" performances are being loved by those that don't spend 1/3 of their day online checking out for pop girls.

Who was nostalgic for the screeching and left out words? Get that bag sis, but yikes...

For step standards sure but to the GP she put on an spectacular show just with the simplicity of the show/stage and her rih rih swag alone 

 

edit: for atrl. freaking autocorrect

Did she even practice for this show? Anyway she still got that 9M so she won regardless.

Stage looks great. Parris did an amazing job as always. Man Down sounds HORRID though.

Taylor hasn’t been the “bad” performer yall want her to be since 2009. She just doesn’t have rhythm.

[XDNA]

She did great, especially since she hasn't performed in years. She also sang live!

 

My only complaint is why didn't she wear shoes? Was she respecting some Indian custom? I was so confused about that because the show wasn't that long.

she's always been the worst performer of all the pop girls

 

[skeeyee]

As a former Stan… it’s the same energy, maybe a little worse: 

 

 

She's never been a great performer tbh

[Digitalism]

This is really funny because people in here are trying to make a private show as something important

Rih doesn't care and the navy knows Rihanna.

If your favs are dumb enough to spend time and money for a private show that's their loss

[ImsoLOUD]

stans of other MPG’s seething in here  now I hope some of the Navy finally realizes that the Hive is not your friend

Where are the videos of Taylor captivating a stadium with just her guitar? I can post videos of Rihanna giving a great vocal or choreo and stage presence but where is the proof of Taylor being half decent even once? Is it just feels and vibes?

Those Swifties are a joke. They think Taylor dancing on stage like Elaine from Seinfeld, is something to brag about. She is awful, and so is her voice. The Swifties should have stayed out of this thread.

Her choreographer said they only had two weeks to prepare for this show.

Im not really about to go toe to toe with yall here. I’m not claiming these people aren’t relevant. But Beyonce and Gaga are the only mainstream pop stars who undoubtedly will perform “better” than Taylor Swift in 2024. Anyone else is either not a major pop star (Tinashe, Doja), or are way too inconsistent these days (Madonna, Xtina).

Excuse me

What did y’all expect!? Especially after the Super Bowl.

Rihanna has never really been a performer like that lol! Y’all have to realize Rihanna is a marketing savant. She knows how to work a business, and what they’re paying for is RIHANNA, and the novelty of having Rihanna perform for them given her hiatus. These billionaires couldn’t care less about how well she performs, it’s the novelty of being able to get something no one else can get lol. And she KNOWS THAT. Why even give 100% your all when at the end of the day the check is gonna still be there after? 

 

Although she didn’t do the best, it’s nice to see her come out and do stuff for music ya know?
