Rihanna will surely set the Super Bowl stage on fire next year with her dazzling performance. A few hours after the Super Bowl halftime show's sponsor Apple Music confirmed the news, rapper Dr Dre shared his excitement and also offered a bit of free advice to the pop star.
During his interview with Ebro Darden on Apple Music 1, Dre said, as per THR, ''Oh, my god, Let me tell you something, man. I actually just got the news that Rihanna’s going to do it, and I’m a super fan of Rihanna. I can’t wait to see what she’s going to do.''
Further, he added, “I just like her and what she does, and her get down, and how she approaches her artistry and the whole nine. It’s fantastic. She has the opportunity to really blow us away. I know we set the bar extremely high.''
Talking further, the rapper advised the singer to ''Put the right people around you, and have fun”

All of these people came through for me, and everybody was extremely enthusiastic about the show. We had a good time, although it’s a lot of things and a lot of people you have to depend on. ''
