Top videos: Rihanna’s Super Bowl spectacular gave her beauty brand a sneaky boost

This week, Americans and people all around the world went bananas for the Super Bowl.

But millions more tuned in for Rihanna’s epic Halftime Show – her first time on stage in five years.

The singer well and truly broke the internet with her appearance, with memes everywhere about her stage setup.

Some compared her floating platforms to those in Super Smash Bros. video games, while others were amazed by her bold pregnancy reveal.

In another eye-catching moment, the singer-turned-beauty-billionaire showed she wasn’t going to let a second of potential ad space go to waste.

She took one of her Fenty Beauty blotting powders, dabbed her complexion, and got back to performing.

The moment gave her beauty brand a tasty serve of exposure.

In the following days, Fenty Beauty had an 833 per cent boost in online search results. Not bad.

Plus, don’t miss the moment that Cate Blanchett takes a hilarious jab at American football – and makes a convincing case that Aussie Rules is far more hardcore.

And while the Super Bowl was underway, one Twitter user caught the moment a meteor drifted across the night sky in the UK.
