And all of a sudden, I'm into football. 🏈⁠ ⁠ In a real "How it started" vs. "How it's going" moment, #Rihanna announced over the weekend that she'll be headlining the Super Bowl LVII halftime show in February 2023. But this won't be the singer's first time gracing the stage at an NFL event, or the site of a Super Bowl. In 2005, a 17-year-old(!) @badgalriri performed alongside Good Charlotte, Kanye West, and Maroon 5 at an NFL Opening Kickoff event at the Los Angeles Coliseum, and we are *totally* here for this full circle moment (and this throwback photo).⁠ ⁠ Our only question is: Do we think this is the beginning of the R9 era?! 👀⁠ ⁠ ✍️ @katherineesingh 📷 Jeff Gross/Getty Images #SuperBowlLVII
