RIHANNA’S PERFORMANCE RECEIVES COMPLAINTS

Posted on February 27, 2023

A ton of folks watching Rihanna’s halftime performance at Super Bowl 57 flooded the FCC with complaints, saying her set was too big on sex.

The overall takeaway from these complainers was the lyrics and choreography were way too sexualized, with some viewers even comparing it to porn.

TMZ obtained the 103 complaints made to the Federal Communications Commission — a U.S. government agency that regulates television — regarding Rihann’s halftime show.

One viewer in California compared Rihanna’s set to Kim Petras and Sam Smith’s performance at the Grammys, writing, “I don’t care what someone worships, but children shouldn’t be exposed to pornography, and as an adult, I don’t wish to see it … Where has decency gone? How about respect for others and self?”

A complaint in Utah said, “This year, the halftime show was so indecent I had to turn off the TV because of the pornographic content.”The Super Bowl halftime show has had worse complaints. Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction at the 2004 Super Bowl generated 540,000 complaints!
