After the Super Bowl, the Oscars.
Rihanna continues to perform at international events.
On March 12, the American singer will burst into the Oscars ceremony, organizers announced on Thursday.
She will perform her title
Lift Me Up
, which leads the race for the statuette of the best original song, taken from the superhero film
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
.
The 95th Academy Awards, hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, will take place at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
Lift Me Up
is the first Oscar nomination for Rihanna, who has already won nine Grammy Awards.
Hold My Hand
performed by Lady Gaga in
Top Gun: Maverick
and the song
Naatu Naatu
by composer MM Keeravani for the film
RRR
are also in the running for the award for best original song.
An unexpected return
Prior to her Super Bowl halftime show earlier this month, Rihanna hadn't set foot on stage in seven years.
The 35-year-old artist has instead focused on her makeup, lingerie and fashion brands that helped make her a billionaire.
In May 2022, she also gave birth to her first child.

Her baby bump had been on fire on social media and was on everyone's lips during the Super Bowl, with reps for the artist confirming the singer's second pregnancy after the show.
Fans, who had been hoping for snippets of the new album she's been talking about for years during her Super Bowl performance, were disappointed.
A possible world tour is not in the news either.
