Following Rihanna's Super Bowl Halftime Show, the "Lift Me Up" singer notched perhaps the biggest streaming week of her music career to date.
Rihanna broke her six-year streak of not doing live performances with a massive Super Bowl performance last Feb. 12, 2023, at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
She performed a medley of her classic hits like "Rude Boy," "Umbrella," "B--h Better Have My Money," "Diamonds," "Where Have You Been," "Only Girl in the World," "Wild Thoughts," "Pour It Up," "All of the Lights," "Work," "Run This Town," and "Only Girl in the World."
Because of the weeks leading to that and the hype that came after, RiRi might just have landed her biggest streaming week ever in the United States.
