Rihanna on Releasing New Music, Why Super Bowl Halftime Show Was 'Right Time'
View StoryAt the time, Hawke wasn't initially photographed sitting next to Rihanna, rather his son, Levon Roan Thurman-Hawke, was seated beside her. However, it was clear from the photos that Hawke made his son switch seats with him at some point, presumably to take the opportunity to talk to the Grammy winner.
Sharing a few of the photos on Monday, Hawke, 52, wrote, "After Rihanna's brilliant half time performance, I'm hoping my son can find it in his heart to forgive a Dad for taking his moment."
Celebrities and fans alike took to the comments section to react to Hawke's post, including Gwyneth Paltrow who trolled the "Before Sunrise" star over the way he was sitting in his seat.
"Could you sit up straight, for god's sake?" she quipped. "You're sitting next to Rihanna!"

Others stars weighed in as well.
"BEST PIC EVER," Andy Cohen wrote, while Daveed Diggs said, "This is EVERYTHING."
Natasha Lyonne and Carla Gugino shared flame emojis and laughing crying emojis.
Like Paltrow, Alyssa Milano called out Hawke's posture, writing, "Not sure I would have gone with this posture whilst sitting next to a goddess."
Meanwhile, it appears that Hawke's son Levon, now 21, doesn't hold it against his dad for "taking his moment" with Rihanna as he praised his dad's post. "Iconic content," Levon wrote.
Hawke shares Levon and daughter Maya Hawke, 24, with ex-wife Uma Thurman. The Academy Award nominee also has two daughters with his wife Ryan -- Clementine, 15, and Indiana, 12.
