Rihanna raised the bar for Oscars performances with the on-stage debut of her Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack cut, “Lift Me Up,” which was in contention for Best Original Song at the night’s proceedings.
Poised at the front of the stage, Rihanna was joined by a crew of backing musicians in a Wakanda-inspired set. Marking the singer’s second live performance after years away, “Lift Me Up” allowed the artist to remind us of her vocal chops, as opposed to her never-forgotten stage presence. When she finished the track, Rihanna was met with a deserved standing ovation.
The Wakanda Forever standout single, which earned our Song of the Week distinction when it dropped in October 2022, received its proper live debut in primetime after it was shockingly left off of RiRi’s Super Bowl Halftime Show setlist, though there were still plenty of surprises throughout her heights-defying, pregnancy-revealing, all-hits hosting job.

From yet another Beyoncé snub for Album of the Year to fan-roundtable segments that some viewers found cringe-inducing, this year’s Grammys sparked even more controversy than usual. In the new episode of our Rolling Stone Music Now podcast, Harvey Mason Jr., CEO of the Recording Academy, responds to criticism (including our own, on last week’s episode).
“This is a new organization,” says Mason, pointing to extensive efforts to diversify the voting base since he took over in 2020. “This is a new academy. There’s always gonna be some disappointments.

With no superstar guests or costume changes, Rihanna’s long-awaited, hit-packed comeback at last week’s Super Bowl Halftime Show relied entirely on her own music — and her singular stage presence and swagger. And as always, the performance, complete with an understated pregnancy reveal, prompted endless online discourse.
In the new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, Tomás Mier — who liked the show, but saw it as a low-energy letdown compared to halftime spectacles from Lady Gaga and Katy Perry — debates its merits with Mankaprr Conteh, who saw it as a triumphant,...

The Season 2 premiere of Next Level Chef delivered some decent ratings for Fox, thanks to the Super Bowl Lvii.
The Gordon Ramsay cooking competition series, which aired after the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, saw an audience of 15.5M viewers. That makes it the most-watched cooking series telecast in television history, according to Fox.
But in terms of post-Super Bowl shows, the episode didn’t quite emerge victorious. In fact, it’s among the least-watched post-Super Bowl programs ever. Last year, the Winter Olympics aired directly after the Super Bowl Lvi, but the year prior about 20M people were tuned in for the premiere of The Equalizer on CBS.
The last time that the Super Bowl aired on Fox, more than 27M people watched the season premiere of The Masked Singer afterward.
