Rihanna to Perform at NBA All-Star Game

After having her video banned what better way for Rihanna to rebound (ugh) than to land a gig at a national sporting event. The singer will headline the halftime performance of the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, Feb. 20.

Rihanna joins a list of performers slated to appear, including Lenny Kravitz, Josh Groban, Keri Hilson and Bruno Mars -- slightly contrary to her post on Twitter, “YES!! I get the entire halftime show @ NBA All-Star Weekend.”

Not to be all “back in my day,” but back in my day I remember watching the All-Star Games for the game, not the halftime show. Wasn’t halftime an extended pee break? Oh, to be a Millenial -- everything must be an experience...
