Rihanna is finally breaking her silence on her hugely anticipated Super Bowl halftime performance … telling us exactly how she feels leading up to the big day and even offering a tiny hint at who might join her onstage.

RiRi was shopping at Bristol Farms Tuesday in L.A., and of course we had to ask about the big game. At first, Rihanna says she feels “nervous” for the performance, but says she’s excited to hit the stage.

We then shifted the convo to who might join her for a song or two. TMZ broke the story, we were told there’s a roster of close to 50 names of possibilities … basically almost anyone she’s collabed with in the past.

While Rihanna wasn’t offering up any info, we pressed about the possibility of her longtime bf and baby daddy, A$AP Rocky hitting the stage — RiRi shrugged and finally did say something.

Rihanna’s halftime show will mark her big comeback to music, it’s been 6 years since she last released an album, when she dropped “Anti” in 2016.
