The tally is in, and Rihanna’s halftime show reached a total of 118.7 million viewers. The news was announced in a tweet late Monday evening by the Fox Sports public relations account.

Rihanna actually gathered more viewers than the Super Bowl game itself, although it was the highest viewership the game has seen in six years. The game gathered 113 million viewers, just 5.7 million less than Rihanna’s performance.

This increase in viewership makes it the second most-watched Super Bowl game of all time, just behind the 2015 game, which achieved 114.4 million viewers. Rihanna’s performance surprised Katy Perry’s halftime show with 114.4 million viewers, which was also in 2015.
