Rihanna re-emerges after being slandered for a ‘lazy’ performance at the pre-wedding bash of Asia’s richest man’s son. Her bold response proves she’s over it.

Rihanna made a highly anticipated return to the stage this week, emerging from her semi-retirement to perform at an Indian wedding celebration. Allegedly commanding a staggering fee of $6.3 million for her exclusive show at the pre-wedding festivities of Asia’s wealthiest man’s son, this marked her first musical performance since the 2023 Super Bowl Halftime show.

Despite the anticipation surrounding her comeback, her performance received heavy criticism from disappointed fans. Many were particularly dismayed by what they perceived as a lackluster exhibition, especially considering the substantial fee she had commanded for the event. The event, which was supposed to kick off Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant’s three-day pre-wedding celebrations in Jamnagar, Gujarat, instead left many feeling underwhelmed by Rihanna’s portrayal in a seemingly ‘lazy’ light, despite her superstar status.

Despite it all, she’s come out of the uproarious commotion in high spirits and has broken her silence on Instagram.

Rihanna appeared to move forward in a daring manner, embodying her brand’s ethos of confidence and empowerment. The founder of the lingerie brand Savage X Fenty made a bold statement on the brand’s official Instagram page. The post, titled “badgalriri’s had Savage on rotation since Day 1,” was shared on social media yesterday. It features the superstar in an enticing portrayal as she once again embraces her role as an entrepreneur to promote a selection of underwear from Fenty’s latest lingerie collection, described as “so sexy and simple.”
