SUPER BOWL

LeBron James Reveals Why He’s Upset About The Super Bowl

by

LeBron James was among many fans who attended the Super Bowl last night. Overall, it was an incredible, high-scoring affair that saw the Kansas City Chiefs prevail with a 38-35 win. This was a huge win for Patrick Mahomes, who has now secured his legacy with two Super Bowl victories. If you are a Chiefs fan, you cannot be prouder of how this team played. Although they were down by 10 at the half, they were able to come back with a victory for the ages. This is easily one of the best Super Bowls ever, and it is very hard to deny that. However, we’re sure Philly fans will beg to differ.

One main point of contention throughout the game was the pass interference call near the end of the game. At the time, the Chiefs were driving down the field with just a few minutes left. They were close to the Eagles’ end zone, and the game was on the line. Subsequently, Kansas City was gifted with a first down that ultimately led to them driving the clock down to 8 seconds. Consequently, they kicked a field goal and eventually won the game.

LeBron James Reacts

LeBron James was not a fan of the call whatsoever. In fact, he took to Twitter where he voiced his opinion on the matter. Overall, it is easy to see why he wouldn’t find this call to be very good. It was marginal, and James goes through plenty issues with the officials over in the NBA. “Sorry but I don’t like that call! Not for the Super Bowl man!” he wrote. “His hand on his back had no effect on his route! This game was too damn good for that call to dictate the outcome at the end. Damn! By the way I have no horse in the race. Just my professional opinion.”

James certainly is not the only fan who felt this way about the game. However, there is no going back at this point. Moving forward, the Eagles will just have to live with the loss. Meanwhile, the Chiefs will be celebrating for a very long time. No matter what, their latest title is certainly well-deserved.

MVP Mahomes: QB Leads Kansas City Chiefs to Win in Super Bowl Shootout

“I told y’all at the beginning of the week there is nothing that would keep me off that football field” – Patrick Mahomes.

Mahomes is going to Disneyland, finishing the theme park double dip as the winner of the Super Bowl. He also is Super Bowl MVP. During the 38-35 victories, Mahomes was 21-of-27 for 182 yards and three touchdowns. Also, on a bad ankle, Mahomes ran for 44 yards.

“It felt great until I kind of rolled it a little bit,” Mahomes said to ESPN. “I thought I felt really good and then that happened, and I had a lot of soreness going through into halftime and was able to move it around, kind of get taped up a little bit and go out there in that second half. It didn’t feel good, but Iw as going to leave it all out there.”

This was the second Super Bowl victory in five years for the Chiefs, winning their first against the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV. In Super Bowl LV, the Chiefs fell to the stingy defense of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Rihanna Inspired By Beyoncé For Super Bowl Halftime Show

by

Two of the biggest (and most Stanned) pop stars in the world share a lot of things: talent, mass impact, but also respect for one another. Before her Super Bowl halftime show, Rihanna said that Beyoncé inspired her and prepared her for the gig. Moreover, she gave the RENAISSANCE star such praise during a conversation with Nate Burleson on NFL and iHeart Radio’s The Process. While the star singer has plenty of performance experience, her first show on the football field is a massive task. However, she did her homework on one of the most grandiose and show-stopping performers the Super Bowl’s ever seen.

“I watched Beyoncé’s halftime performances a couple of times,” the “We Found Love” star expressed. “She is a beast and a whole other level. Just to be inspired, really.” Furthermore, Queen Bee appeared at two big football games over the past decade. Firstly, she performed a headlining solo show in 2013, and joined Bruno Mars and Coldplay in 2016. Overall, she showed herself to be an incredible performer, which people can’t wait to see on her upcoming tour. Still, with ticket prices and availability being a huge hassle, it’ll be tough to witness the “Drunk in Love” icon.

However, Stephen A. Smith of all people compared these two stars ahead of RiRi’s performance. “I don’t want to say I’m not excited,” he said when asked whether he’s hype for her show. “She’s fantastic. That’s not where I’m going with this. Ladies and gentlemen, she’s a lot of things. She’s spectacular, actually. And congratulations on new mamahood. There’s one thing she’s not: she ain’t Beyoncé… Rihanna’s music is fantastic. She’s great, she’s a sister. I love her dearly, I listen to her music. I’m gonna support her ’til the cows come home! I’m just telling you, for me, there’s Beyoncé, there’s everybody else.”

While a lot of people took issue with his comments, he did clarify that it’s just a personal taste thing. However, he didn’t do so without calling out harsh critics quick to jump down his throat. “I think Rihanna’s fantastic. Now, you agree, fine. You disagree? Fine. How we get to the point, ‘Why he gotta pit two Black women…’ Really?! I just can’t be a fan of both? But I prefer Beyoncé over Rihanna. That’s a crime! I didn’t know that.” Regardless of what your take is, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest on these two superstars.

The #FentyBowl — more commonly referred to as Super Bowl LVII’s halftime show — went off without a hitch. With Rihanna billed as the featured act, all eyes were on the “Lift Me Up” singer, as she hadn’t taken the stage in nearly seven years. While the Barbarian musician didn’t release any new music, her set was filled with plenty of her beloved past hits, including “Work” and “Pour It Up.” However, during the performance, fans took to social media to call attention to something else.

Fans wondered if the businesswoman mistakenly revealed her speculated second pregnancy. Dressed in a figure-hugging red bodysuit, breastplate cast, and red puffer jacket, after cameras turned to the side, fans noticed what appeared to be a baby bump. Back in May, the singer and her partner, rapper ASAP Rocky, welcomed their first child.

Although it may seem like a quick turnaround for the couple to have a second child on the way, Rocky has expressed just how much he has enjoyed fatherhood on numerous occasions. Without thinking, during her set, the singer went to rub her stomach but quickly moved her hand away as the camera panned.

That small motion was enough of a confirmation, fans needed to get run to social media.

A representative for Rihanna quickly confirmed that she is pregnant with the couple’s second child. Congrats!

Rihanna‘s Super Bowl LVII Halftime performance has come and gone, but we’re still in awe. The “Lift Me Up” singer took the Super Bowl stage to perform a medley of her chart-topping hit songs. Rihanna recently revealed she changed the setlist nearly 39 times before we saw the final product. Ahead of her performance, the Barbadian-bred mogul released a teaser trailer and dropped a limited edition NFL-themed collection with her Savage X Fenty company, only amping up anticipation.

The Grammy winner opened the award show with “B*tch Better Have My Money” while sporting an all-red outfit while suspended high in the air on a platform. Following that, she performed some of her dance-driven hits like “Where Have You Been” and “Only Girl.” She closed out her show with a thrilling performance of “Diamonds” while again suspended in the air.

While she couldn’t squeeze her nearly two-decade career into 13 minutes, fans were more than happy with what they got.

But it doesn’t end there. Ahead of her performance, Rihanna sat down with Apple Music host Nadeska to chat about this new chapter in her life, especially with becoming a new mother. She even hinted that she might be working on new music.

Rihanna noted that she was feeling “open” musically and was interested in “exploring, discovering, and creating things that are new.”

She continued, “Things that are different. Things that are off, weird, might not ever make sense to my fans [or] the people that know the music that I put out. I just wanna play. I wanna have fun. I want to have fun with music.”

Check out Rihanna’s setlist from Super Bowl LVII below.

  1. “B*tch Betta Have My Money”
  2. “Where Have You Been”

Rihanna’s Representative Confirms She’s Pregnant With Her Second Child After The Super Bowl Halftime Show

Rihanna’s Super Bowl LVII Halftime Show performance turned out to be full of surprises but the biggest one was the reveal that she’s pregnant with her and ASAP Rocky’s second child. A representative for the singer confirmed as much to The Hollywood Reporter amidst rampant speculation on Twitter after the performance.

At the beginning of the set, as Rihanna appeared on a floating platform high above the field, she opened her coat during a rendition of “Bitch Better Have My Money” to reveal what looked very much like a baby bump. Of course, the quick turnaround between babies #1 and 2 had many fans flustered over whether she was normalizing postpartum baby weight — a valid cause, to be sure — or boasting a new bundle of joy.

Fortunately, none of us had to wait very long for a confirmation.

Ahead of the show, Rihanna seemingly teased the reveal in an interview with Nate Burleson on NFL+ Friday night. When asked whether she’d have any special guests during the show, she cheekily said, “I’m thinking about bringing someone.” It just turns out the “someone” was not a musical star (yet), but the new addition to Rih and Rocky’s rapidly growing family.

Fans, of course, had a field day with the news — pun intended — although some were distraught that they might not be getting that new album or tour anytime soon.

Kansas City Chiefs Win Super Bowl LVII Against Philadelphia Eagles

The Kansas City Chiefs just emerged victorious against the Philadelphia Eagles at Super Bowl LVII. Moreover, their victory was hard-fought, well-earned, and the product of an incredibly close game. For viewers who don’t often watch football and hardcore fans alike, it was a nail-biting game. In fact, the two teams were neck and neck for the majority of the game, trading touchdowns and massive plays. However, the game-winning play didn’t come without some controversy.

Moreover, this is yet another Super Bowl win for Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. Also, the quarterback is now the NFL MVP, becoming the first player to do so and win a Super Bowl since 1999. Given this is the most competitive night in the world for some, it’s not surprising to see some conflict come up. Furthermore, a touchdown and two-point conversion from the Eagles tied the game with 5:15 left. Then, the Chiefs marched down the field with the ball, arriving at Philly’s 15-yard line with two minutes to spare. As Kansas faced a third-and-8 that went incomplete, things looked doable for the Eagles.

However, a flag changed the entire game. According to officials, James Bradberry (defensive back for the Eagles) committed a holding on Chief player JuJu Smith-Schuster that prevented his running route. Moreover, the call meant five yards and fresh downs for the now-Super Bowl LVII victors. Of course, that was all Mahomes needed. After that call, Kansas killed the clock with three plays and set up a 27-yard field goal from Harrison Butker. In the move that sealed their win, his goal gave KC the 38-35 lead.

Meanwhile, the Eagles’ final play was a throw from Jalen Hurts that didn’t reach the end zone. So, Mahomes and company scored Super Bowl No. 2 for the Chiefs. Overall, it was an incredible game and an overall wonderful night for entertainment. Between Rihanna’s halftime show and commercials galore, any pop culture fan had something to celebrate. However, what did you think about that game-winning call for the Chiefs and the game in general? Regardless of your emotions, tell us in the comments and come back to HNHH for some heated Super Bowl discussion.
