"We have to collab some more"- Rennae Stubbs and Coco Gauff chuffed with themselves after correctly predicting Rihanna's Super Bowl performance
Rennae Stubbs and Coco Gauff were involved in a funny exchange on Twitter after both correctly predicted Rihanna's performance at the Super Bowl.
The 34-year-old singer dazzled spectators during the halftime show at this year's Super Bowl between Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
She opened the show with her song B**** Better Have My Money, something which Rennae Stubbs and Coco Gauff both predicted beforehand.
"Ok I’m going to guess the songs from @rihanna !! have some fun with me. I hope it starts with the words, “B**** better have my money” then straight into This is what they came for, Where have you been, Don’t stop the music, We found love. (Maybe only girl in the world too) LFG," Stubbs tweeted shortly before the start of the Super Bowl.
Coco Gauff also predicted that Rihanna would start with B**** Better Have My Money.
"Rihanna coming out to b better have my money “don’t act like you forgot” lyric and then maybe please don’t stop the music. you heard it here first," the WTA World No. 6's tweet read.
Rennae Stubbs later tweeted that she wanted some props to correctly predict how Rihanna would start her performance.
"Btw i want some props for predicting @rihanna starting her performance tonight with “B**** better have my money”!!! Come on now! That was a hell of a prediction," the former doubles World No. 1's tweet read.
A Twitter user later pointed out to Stubbs that Gauff also got her prediction correct regarding Rihanna's opening song. This prompted the Aussie to suggest that the 18-year-old and herself collab more often.
"Woot woot! @CocoGauff we have to collab some more," Stubbs tweeted.
Rennae Stubbs reacts to controversial ending to the Super Bowl
This 57th edition of the Super Bowl saw Kansas City Chiefs beat Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 to win the 2022 NFL season. The match ended on a controversial note as the referee awarded the Chiefs their first touchdown after Eagles cornerback James Bradberry was called for a holding penalty at 35-35.
Rennae Stubbs questioned the referee's call, claiming that it was the worst call she had seen in a long time.
"I’m sorry but that call was the worst call i have seen a long time! I have no dog in this fight, but that was pathetic," the Aussie tweeted.
Stubbs' opinion was echoed by a number of people in the tennis world, including Brad Gilbert, Jon Wertheim, and Mark Petchey.
