Trump attacks Rihanna ahead of Super Bowl: ‘Without her “Stylist” she’d be NOTHING’
Former President Trump criticized singer Rihanna on Thursday ahead of her planned performance at the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.
“Without her “Stylist” she’d be NOTHING. Bad everything, and NO TALENT!” Trump posted on his Truth Social account.
Trump’s post came in response to a post on the social media platform from Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) saying that Rihanna should not be the performer. Jackson criticized the singer for spray-painting criticism of Trump on a car at a ranch in Amarillo, Texas, in 2020.
Rihanna and Trump have clashed before. She won a legal victory over Trump in 2018 when her performing rights company, Broadcast Music Inc., informed the then-president that he could no longer use her music at his rallies.
After a Washington Post reporter tweeted that her music was “blaring” at a rally in Tallahassee, Fla., Rihanna responded, “Not for much longer…me nor my people would ever be at or around one of those tragic rallies.”

Rihanna a exprimé sa critique de Trump pendant sa présidence.
D'autres musiciens, comme Pharrell Williams, Elton John et Steven Tyler d'Aerosmith ont également demandé à Trump de ne pas jouer leur musique lors de ses rassemblements.
La performance de Rihanna à la mi-temps sera sa première depuis des années.
