We are only two days from a new pivotal moment in the Rihannaissance: the Barbadian pop star’s Super Bowl LVII halftime show. It’s been far more than a minute since Rihanna took the stage (let alone released a project); she hasn’t performed at a major event since the Grammys in 2018, in fact. But with time to miss her and time to spare, there’s been plenty of time to mull over one question: how exactly will she make her big return to an arena-sized spotlight?

The easier to bet on question: who will she make it with? Back in September, TMZ reported that Rihanna was choosing from a list of 50+ potential collaborators while putting together her performance, with names like Jay-Z, Drake, and Paul McCartney thrown into the ring. With speculation in the air and only three days until Sunday, let’s get to work and break down the possibilities.

So they only have two songs together… so what! Rihanna’s partner (and father of her young son) has been about his excitement for her big night, and it could mark his first Super Bowl appearance. This would without a doubt fit the bill for a crowd-pleaser, and they’ve shared major (if not as major) stages in the past. Years before their relationship, the duo sang Rihanna’s ““ at the 2012 MTV Music Video Awards, a performance in which Rocky notoriously groped Rihanna onstage (an extremely eugh moment that could just maybe earn some redemption now).
