.Rihanna had to cancel her Glastonbury performance this summer due to her pregnancy, and while she performed at the Super Bowl Halftime show, she couldn’t risk the baby’s health this time because her due date clashed with the festival’s calendar.
Rihanna was scheduled to perform alongside the Arctic Monkeys, Elton John, Blondie, and others.
Rihanna announced her pregnancy to the world in the most epic way possible, by simply revealing her baby bump on the main stage of the Super Bowl, in which the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles.

Rihanna was scheduled to perform at the same festival as the Arctic Monkeys, Elton John, Blondie, Lizzo, Little Nas X, Fatboy Slim, Beth Orton, Thundercat, Barrington Levy, Phoenix, and many others, but she had to cancel her appearance due to the arrival of her new family member.
Fans reacted to Rihanna’s cancelation
As soon as it was announced that she would not be performing, fans took to social media to express their disappointment. “Pale, male, and stale” was one of the first comments on the announcement.
People reacted to her cancellation on Twitter, as expected. “Glastonbury. S*** festival for the middle class, and there’s a better view on TV,” one user wrote.

“Oasis to headline Glastonbury in 2024?” joked another. Or are you not interested in s****y fields and middle-class t****?”
And, just as there are good and polite fans, there are those who simply cross the line and go over to propose to her, as an unnamed individual made the trip from South Carolina to Los Angeles and even informed security personnel of his intentions.
He was obviously stopped and handcuffed before he even got close to the star, but because no crime was committed, the police let him go with only a warning.
