Some of the singers choose to Lip Sync
Over years and years, we have had a mix of artists singing live and lip-syncing at the Super Bowl. If an artist has a particularly energetic performance that involves a lot of dancing and moving around they may elect to lip sync because they do not want their vocals to be affected by being out of breath.
If a performance is highly choreographed, artists want to focus a lot of their attention on that. Energetic dancing while making sure that every note is perfect would be very difficult so lip-syncing is a good way.
In addition, even if artist lip sync they will still do a few parts live, while the pre-recorded backing tracks and live instrumentation can be helping out in their performance. Notable artists have opted to lip-sync at Super Bowl over years. These artists include Madonna, Katy Perry, and Justin Timberlake.
Rihanna was born on the 20th of February in 1988 and presently she is 34 years old in 2023. She is 1.73m tall and has a net worth of close to $1.7 billion.
