Justin Bieber, Rihanna Kickstart Super Bowl Weekend In Miami
It's Super Bowl weekend, and the party got started on Thursday night (February 4) with VH1's "Super Bowl Fan Jam 2010," an all-star concert featuring Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Timbaland and Young Jeezy. Though Bieber Timbaland both got football fans moving in Miami, it was truly a showcase for Rihanna, who pounded out a series of recent hits (including "Wait Your Turn," "Disturbia" and "Russian Roulette," as well as tag-teams with Jeezy on "Live Your Life" and her current single "Hard") but also grabbed the attention of the fans with yet another head-turning display of fashion.
First, of course, there's the outfit, which is part Catwoman, part Mrs. Claus with a little bit of Johnny Weir thrown in. (The bows on the gloves are an especially nice touch.)
But then there's also that microphone stand, which looks like a scythe that was re-fashioned into a "Prince of Persia" obstacle that was then turned into a piece of sound equipment. Like Rihanna's general style, it's equal parts glam and militant.
The music at this year's Super Bowl has already been top-notch, and we're still two days away from the big game. In addition to the VH1 concert, fans in Miami were also treated to performances by Jordin Sparks and David Archuleta. This year's Super Bowl Saturday Night will feature performances from O.A.R. and Barenaked Ladies. When game time rolls around on Sunday (February 7), Carrie Underwood will open the proceedings with a run through "The Star-Spangled Banner" and the big half time show will be headlined by English classic rockers the Who. Sure, the Who will be delightfully loud (and will also be premiering their new remix of "My Generation," the proceeds of which will go to earthquake relief in Haiti), but will Roger Daltrey be wearing anything like Rihanna?
