NFL pundit announces her pregnancy in best way possible with Halloween post
NFL pundit Jamie Erdahl announced her pregnancy by dressing up as Rihanna - who performed the half-time show at Super Bowl LVII while expecting.
Rihanna’s epic half-time show was watched by 118.7 million people - which was more than the 113 million who tuned in for the actual game The 34-year-old’s pregnancy went viral as she was not moving as much as expected during the performance, and it was confirmed shortly after the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles.
When she signed the contract to perform, Rihanna didn’t know she was pregnant. Despite being six months in, the megastar was happy to be suspended 150 ft above the turf on platforms as she reeled off hit after hit.
As it is Halloween, Erdahl and the rest of the Good Morning Football crew decided to dress up. She wore the red jumpsuit - complete with gloves and mic - donned by Rihanna back in Arizona in February.
