She wore her raven hair slicked back into a cascading braid with two straightened wisps shaping her famous features. A glamorous makeup look was the palette of choice and consisted of a buttery skin tone, a bold red lip, and a peachy eyeshadow blend.

Rihanna will perform during the break when the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, which will mark her live return since bowing out of the limelight in 2016. The chart-topper has not toured or released an album since 2016's Anti, instead channeling her energy into her fashion brand and welcoming her firstborn into the world.
