Rihanna Fan’s Pumped for Super Bowl 2023 Half-Time Show
It’s a chance for celebrities to shine on football’s biggest stage, and fans are excited to see Rihanna “shine bright like a diamond” at the Super Bowl 2023 Halftime Show.
“I think it’ll be awesome. I love her; she’s got fire like no one else,” Jinese Williams said. Fans are already practicing their favorite song and speculating about a surprise on-stage guest.
After declining to perform in the 2019 halftime show, Rihanna stated that the timing and circumstances were right for her this time.
“I want her to call Jay-Z. “Run This Town,” let’s do it tonight in Phoenix,” Dalilah Toyosima told Scrippsnews.
Following the kneeling controversy involving Colin Kaepernick and the NFL in 2019, Rihanna declined the halftime show.
On Sunday, a story of progress — the superstar will be part of history as two Black quarterbacks take the field in a Super Bowl for the first time.
Despite having a large television audience, the NFL does not pay its performers, though it does cover their expenses.
According to Rihanna, this year’s Super Bowl show celebrates diversity.
“Representing for immigrants, representing for my country, Barbados, representing for Black women everywhere. That, I believe, is critical. “Seeing the possibilities is critical, and I’m honored to be here,” she said.
It’s a feeling fans look forward to experiencing on Sunday because it brings people of all races and generations together.
“My entire invitation revolves around Rihanna,” Toyosima explained. “We’re overjoyed.”
“I’m overjoyed,” Princess James exclaimed. “I’m excited to see her up there. I hope she’s dressed nicely. I hope she’s prepared to go because I’m ready to observe.”
Meanwhile, Yahoo News reports the inventory of Super Bowl LVII tickets began to pile up, and prices have steadily reflected it.
Tickets to see the Kansas City Chiefs play the Philadelphia Eagles have gradually decreased in price in every 24-hour window since Sunday night after coming into this week hot. According to data from multiple secondary ticket platforms, the resulting slide has driven “get in” prices for the cheapest possible seats down 30% — from nearly $6,000 late Sunday to around $4,200 Thursday afternoon.
What’s the reason?
According to data from online marketplace TicketIQ, daily inventory across the market increased by nearly 31% from Saturday to Tuesday, from around 2,600 available seats to nearly 3,400.
“With the price drop, Super Bowl 57 is the fifth-most expensive Super Bowl we’ve tracked,” TicketIQ CEO Jesse Lawrence said.
Interestingly, as of Thursday afternoon, the marketplace’s data puts this year’s Super Bowl in a virtual tie with last year’s in terms of the average ticket price (plus brokerage fees), with Super Bowl LVI settling in at $6,750 per seat versus $6,783 for Super Bowl LVII.
While some other sites have slightly different data on that average, the numbers all agree: This year’s average ticket price may fall below last season’s and end up being the cheapest average ticket since the New England Patriots faced the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta. According to TicketIQ data, the average ticket price that season was $5,653.
The “get in” price of $4,259 for this year’s game would still have to drop significantly to fall below the cheapest seats in last year’s game, which leveled off and settled at $3,914.
Will the prices fall further? How demand affects inventory over the next three days will ultimately determine that. After peaking at just over 3,400 on Tuesday, available seats on the market appeared to have leveled off and were hovering steadily at 3,200 as of Thursday afternoon. That’s a fairly solid inventory level, but there is some expectation of a late-arriving buyer influx beginning Thursday, as holdouts who didn’t plan to spend extra vacation time in the Phoenix area will be arriving in the next 48 hours looking for seats.
“With only three days until game day, we’re seeing sales pick up, and prices drop — the last 24 hours saw the biggest jump in sales than any other 24-hour period this week on StubHub,” said Adam Budelli, StubHub’s director of partnerships and business development. “We expect ticket prices to level out, so if you see a ticket in your price range, we recommend purchasing it now because you never know how long that ticket will last.”

Superman 2025 Trailer Drops With Great Fanfare
James Gunn’s next film, Superman 2025, has its first teaser trailer, which dropped on Thursday. It gives DC fans their first look at David Corenswet’s Superman, AKA Clark Kent and Lois Lane.
Before its release, DC Studios unveiled a Superman 2025 enamel pin on Monday featuring a revamped Corenswet in her superhero costume and an updated depiction of Pierce Brosnahan’s daring reporter on Wednesday.
In 2025, Superman fans will be able to enjoy Gunn’s new storytelling, a new main actor, and more character development. Many are also curious about whether Superman will face Ultraman.
The preview opens with Superman, battered and bloodied, crash-landing in a desolate, icy scene. His canine sidekick, Krypto, also known as Super Dog, rushes to his aid after he has visions of himself as Clark in the Daily Planet office and at his parents’ house.
The trailer offers few storyline details, aside from the involvement of a fire-breathing dragon and the shaved-head Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. It seems that Superman 2025 also attracts the ire of the general public; one irate citizen even beaned him on the back of the head with a throwaway cup.
After revealing his grand vision for the newly formed DCU in 2023, Gunn’s film—originally named Superman: Legacy—would serve as the prequel to a trilogy dubbed Chapter One: Gods and Monsters. The sequels will feature films centred around Supergirl, Clayface, and Swamp Thing.
Krypto Appears in Superman 2025
Despite living among other super-beings, Gunn noted that Corenswet’s Superman can stand on Earth due to his devotion and honesty.
In addition to his enormous stronghold that emerges from the ground, Superman possesses a flying dog and battles enormous creatures. The director praised Superman in his film for bringing elements from the comics and mythology that fans have been missing from the superhero franchise.
He may have done it again with Krypto, this time with a take that challenges the canine stereotype of a muscular, well-groomed hero.
More than anything else, this one appears to be a rescue operation. According to Gunn, the dog that steals the show in the trailer isn’t the greatest. You’re missing out on much of Krypto’s depth in this trailer.
According to Gunn, “it’s a movie about kindness” when asked about the film’s themes.
In the 2025 teaser for Superman, Superman only says, “Take me home,” and whispers Krypto’s name. John Williams’s iconic score from the Christopher Reeve films gets a modern update to underscore the video.
Superman 2025, the first solo film starring Superman since 2013’s Man of Steel, opens on July 11, and a lot is riding on it.
The property is the foundation for the ambitious plans of DC Studios co-chiefs Gunn and Peter Safran, who were appointed to re-invent DC by Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav. Their plans include an entire universe of television shows and films.

Telugu-speaking immigrants make up a sizable proportion of Canada’s South Asian population. Telugu films provide these people with a link to their birthplace.
Platforms such as iBomma allow users to quickly access the most recent releases without waiting for DVDs or other means of distribution.
Platforms such as Reddit, Instagram, and WhatsApp have helped iBomma gain popularity. Fans frequently post free movie links or discuss future Telugu releases, generating buzz. This word-of-mouth marketing attracts additional users to sites like iBomma, increasing Canadian viewership.
Telugu Movies Display India Culture
Social influencers have also had an impact. This increased enthusiasm is seen in YouTube channels evaluating Telugu movies and Instagram clips showing Tollywood dance numbers. Many consumers watch Telugu films on their mobile devices, reducing the need for traditional cable subscriptions.
Furthermore, subtitles have made Telugu movies available to non-Telugu-speaking Canadians. With English as the primary language in Canada, this function allows for a more seamless watching experience.

28 Years Later Trailer Drops: 22 Years After it Debuted
The much-anticipated trailer for 28 Years Later is finally here, reuniting legendary director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland. It’s been 22 years since 28 Days Later debuted.
The latest picture stars Killing Eve’s Comer, The Fall Guy’s Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Conclave’s Ralph Fiennes. In the teaser, all three are seen fighting zombies.
It’s been nearly three decades since the fury virus escaped a biological weapons facility, and although some have discovered ways to survive among the afflicted, others remain under strict isolation.
One such group of survivors lives on a small island linked to the mainland by a single, heavily fortified causeway. When one of the gang members departs the island on a journey to the dark centre of the mainland, he discovers mysteries, wonders, and horrors that have changed not just the infected but also other survivors.
Although the teaser doesn’t reveal much, some fans are already predicting that Cillian Murphy’s Jim, the protagonist of the previous film, may return to a surprising position for this sequel.
The speculation is that one of the zombies in the trailer is Jim, though this has not been proven. Murphy is a producer in the picture, although he is unlikely to play a substantial role on screen.
It’s feasible that Jim is hidden as a zombie in plain sight.
The film’s summary describes a dismal but intriguing story. Decades after the Fury virus escaped a biological weapons facility, quarantine is still a cruel reality. Survivors are clinging to life on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, reinforced causeway.
When members of this colony travel to the mainland, they encounter mutated horrors—both infected and human—that blur the distinction between monster and survivor.
