Video above: Rihanna teases 'almost impossible' Super Bowl halftime show
From pregame entertainment to commercial breaks and of course, the halftime show, there's a lot more to the Super Bowl than just football.
Here's a look at the biggest moments from Super Bowl LVII:
(All updates in ET)
9:45 p.m. ET
Rihanna was pregnant with her second child as she performed her Super Bowl halftime show Sunday.
The singer's representative confirmed the pregnancy shortly after she ended her 13-minute set at Super Bowl 57.
The baby bump that was visible in the tight clothes she wore under her baggy red jumpsuit during the show set off a wave of social media speculation that she might be pregnant again.
The 34-year-old has a 9-month-old son with rapper A$AP Rocky.
9:15 p.m. ET
FanDuel says it is still going to give $10 million in free bets to spread among its Super Bowl bettors.
In a much-hyped ad for betting site FanDuel customers, Rob Gronkowski attempted a 25-yard field goal. A voiceover said he missed the kick, but they’d still give out the free bets. But online, onlookers were confused and thought it was good.
Gronk’s “Kick of Destiny” landed the gaming site plenty of free publicity for the live stunt, as well as plenty of new customers who registered to be part of the campaign.
8:45 p.m. ET
Rihanna was shining bright like a diamond in her Super Bowl halftime performance.
She began her show hanging high above the field. She wore a puffy, bright red jumpsuit as she stood on a transparent square that moved her up and down as she hovered in the air over the turf at State Farm Stadium.
Dancers wearing what looked like white ski suits moved in sync on their own suspended platforms.
She and her dancers were lowered to a stage that matched her outfit, and moved in sync as she sped through two other hits, “Where Have You Been,” and “Only Girl."
There were none of the instant costume changes, scene shifts or guest appearances that have been a constant at other Super Bowl halftimes.
The theme — and the color scheme — stayed the same throughout her set, with red lights bathing the long stage.
More of the dancers in white flooded and filled the field as the performance went on.
Fireworks went off and lights sparkled from the stand as she was raised alone back into the air and sang “Diamond” — with its refrain of “shine bright like a diamond” — as the set closed.
The performance was her first live event in seven years, and her first since becoming a mother nine months ago.
8:15 p.m. ET
The first half of Super Bowl 57 was an action-packed doozy as the Philadelphia Eagles took a 24-14 lead over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Philadelphia’s Jake Elliott made a 35-yard field goal at the halftime buzzer to put the Eagles up by 10.
Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts ran for two touchdowns in the first half and also connected on a 45-yard touchdown pass to A.J. Brown. Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes also threw a touchdown pass and Nick Bolton returned a fumble 36 yards for another score.
An important development to watch: Mahomes limped off the field late in the second quarter. The two-time NFL MVP has been fighting a badly sprained right ankle and looked like he re-aggravated the injury.
7:50 p.m. ET
Brittney Griner is in the crowd representing the Philadelphia Eagles at the Super Bowl.
It was the third public appearance for the WNBA star since her release from a Russian prison.

7:15 p.m. ET
In its first Super Bowl ad, Dunkin’ Donuts enlisted superfan Ben Affleck and wife Jennifer Lopez for its spot.

He also appeared on stage at “NFL Honors” on Thursday night after the Bills and Cincinnati Bengals training and medical staffs, along with the staff at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, were recognized.
“My entire life, I felt like God was using me to give others hope and now with a new set of circumstances, I can say he’s doing what he’s always done,” Hamlin said from the stage at the Phoenix Convention Center. “I have a long journey ahead, a journey full of unknowns and a journey full of milestones, but it’s a lot easier to face your fears when you know your purpose.”

Allegretti, who has started three games this season, will be available for the Chiefs in the big game.
About the same time his wife was giving birth, Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman tweeted that his girlfriend, Chariah Gordeon, had gone into labor. Hardman went on injured reserve this week and was not available to play in the game.

The Grammy winner joyfully danced and performed her biggest jams from “Up” to “I Like It” at the Hall of Fame party early Sunday. She brought high energy into a laid-back nightclub atmosphere at the Gila River Resorts & Casino in Chandler, Arizona.
The crowd rose to their feet and pulled out their phones to capture Cardi B's show as they recited almost word-for-word all the lyrics during her 30-minute set. She kicked off her performance with “Money” as she pranced across the stage.
Offset also joined her onstage to perform their hit “Clout.”
Cardi B went on to perform her other hits such as "Finesse” and “Bodak Yellow,” her final song of the night.
