Meet Justina Miles, an American Sign Language interpreter for Rihanna’s Super Bowl LVIl halftime show in 2023. Her performance went viral because of how expressive, rhythmic, and locked-in it was with the music, she treated the set like a full performance rather than just a translation.
Justina is deaf herself, comes from Philadelphia, and had already worked major events before, but the Super Bowl moment turned her into a standout name overnight and sparked a wider conversation about how powerful ASL interpretation can be when it is done with real musical feel.
