Rihanna and her entire team, who has been on quite a long hiatus of six years have been up and running ever since the NFL confirmed that she would be the main performer at the 2023 Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show next February.
Initially, reports emerged that Taylor Swift was supposed to perform at the musical event, but she eventually declined it as she promised to only do so once all of her albums are already re-recorded.
Meanwhile, TMZ has gathered information that Rihanna is in the first stage of selecting her guest performance for the highly-anticipated comeback.
Per the media outlet, Rihanna's Super Bowl Guest Performer recommendations are composed of more than 50 artists already, shortlisting each and everyone to be her perfect accompaniment at the 2023 Super Bowl performance.
Sources reveal that every artist that Rihanna has collaborated with is possible to appear in the upcoming Super Bowl performance.
Meanwhile, it was also said that Rihanna still has the final say on who to pick for the actual guest slot as she could also be alone, singing her career-spanning singles throughout the set.
With regards to new music, popular entertainment insider Deuxmoi has revealed that a possible Rihanna new album is already in the works and is expected to be released on January 2023. The album's lead single is also said to be dropped before Halloween 2022.
After the public's excited response to the Super Bowl announcement, Rihanna was also said to be tapped by Goldenvoice Production to headline Coachella 2023 along with Halsey.
As of this writing, Rihanna, NFL, and even Roc Nation have not responded to these claims emerging online.

Who Will Be Rihanna's Guest Performers at Super Bowl?
Based on the tidbit, anyone that Rihanna has collaborated with is a fair play on the guest performance slot.
Notably, Rihanna had many big artists who she had collaborated with in the past years.
One of her most iconic songs, "Umbrella" is a collaboration with Jay-Z, his Roc Nation manager.
Neyo could also be one, as he appeared on "Hate That I Love You," although his recent issues with his wife Crystal Smith could be an issue.
Eminem is also one of the many names that have emerged since he appeared on both "Love The Way You Lie," and "The Monster." If Rihanna decides to invite him, it would be a back-to-back chance for Emine,
Because of "FourFiveSeconds," Kanye West and Paul McCartney are put into the mix too.
But, among all of the names, only one female artist has appeared on the list - Nicki Minaj. Rihanna only worked with Nicki for "Raining Men" but she appeared on the Queen of Rap's earliest song, "Fly." The two recently reconnected when Nicki and Riri posed for photos with Papa Bear, Kenneth Petty, and ASAP Rocky in a photo that sent the internet into frenzy last year.
