Pregnant Rihanna Shares Photo of Her Son in Tears After He Learned His Sibling Gets to Go to the Oscars – E! Online

“It feels like it could have only been now,” Rihanna said during an Apple Music Halftime Show press conference on Feb. 9. “I mean, when I first got the call to do it again this year, I was like, ‘You sure? Like, I’m three months postpartum. Like, should I be making major decisions like this right now? Like, I might regret this.’ But when you become a mom, there’s something that just happens where you feel like you can take on the world, you can do anything.” 

She added, “The Super Bowl is one of the biggest stages in the world. So, as scary as that was, because I haven’t been on stage in seven years, there’s something exhilarating about the challenge of it all. And it’s important for me to do this this year. It’s important for representation. It’s important for my son to see that.”
