Rihanna will perform in Super Bowl's halftime show in February

Next month, Swift's new album, «Midnights,» will be released, and reports surfaced this weekend that in the following months, Swift would continue a process of re-recording her first six albums.

Last season, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, 50 Cent, and Anderson .Paak performed at the Super Bowl at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. More than 120 million viewers watched that performance, according to the NFL.

Last week, the NFL announced a multi-year partnership with Apple Music for the halftime shows, and Rihanna's will be the first.

«We couldn't think of a more appropriate partner for the world's most-watched musical performance,» NFL SVP of Partner Strategy Nana-Yaw Asamoah said last week in a statement.

Rihanna, 34, has released eight studio albums across her career, winning nine Grammy Awards and 13 American Music Awards along the way.
