Rihanna attacks fan at a recent concert? If you know anything about Rihanna, then you know the “Diamonds” singer is not one to let what other people think about her determine what she’s going to do or not do. In fact, the singer doesn’t seem to care about her bad girl image, and unlike most celebs, she embraces it with a type of charm that could only work for her. This is why so many of Rihanna’s fans adore her and they truly do act like a real “Navy” and they support the superstar in everything she does. With that kind of fan base, it’s no shocker Ms. Fenty’s MAC lipstick sold out online in three hours. But even Rihanna’s own loyal fans can take things a little too far, and the starlet got a glimpse of this first hand the other day during a performance in Birmingham when one fan grabbed her and refused to let go. So what did Rihanna do? She did what any real bad girl would do, and she turned around and clocked the fan in the face with the microphone. Check it out:
Of course Rihanna’s clocking of the fan did cause a debate as with anything bad girl thing the singer does, but with all the drama Miguel is going through after accidentally leg dropping a fan on stage, some are questioning if just maybe Rihanna should have let her security guard handle it. It wouldn’t shock us if the fan decided to get even and attempt to file a lawsuit, especially since people are filing lawsuits left and right these days anyway.
Regardless, Rihanna is not regretting her choice to clock the overzealous fan in the face with the microphone, and she even told her fans on Instagram it was “on purpose” because the fan wouldn’t let her go:
Do you think Rihanna’s actions were justified or was she wrong?
This b-tch is ridiculous. I can’t wait to here how the navy is going to defend this ish. If Miguel is getting sued she damn need to be getting sued.
This is not a good look but I definitely laughed. LOL.
Self defense!!!!! What would most do if they are grabbed like that? Defend themselves!
But they weren’t trying to hurt her though…come on boo, you know that’s a reach.
you don’t know that. her security and police just arrest a guy on the roof top of her home today in LA . you never know what these stans will do
You can’t be serious???????
Just stop. You make no sense and you know it.
*side eye*
Self defense? Girl, what are YOU smoking cause I need that sh-t!
As an Entertainer, you know that fans will do the most to touch you. This fan got a hold of her arm, and ran with it and possibly got star struck and didn’t even realize they were holding her that long. THATS HOW FANS ARE. She had NO RIGHT to hit someone in their head with a Mic. Come on. I hope that she gets sued because this wreck less behavior makes me question the night with her and CB
What the f-ck? Yo, she’s not going to stop until she gets sued. I get she has a bad girl image to maintain, but this sh-t here is crazy.
This is for any of you who had any doubts she probably mollywhopped or punched Chris in the head on that infamous night…
CO-SIGN !!!!!!!!! I been saying that all along.
LOL!
Agree. I keep saying she slapped him 1st after she saw whatever text she saw! Trust security would have had to jump on me cause the moment she bopped me in the head is the moment the concert would have been over!
Apparently the Navy loves this and thinks this makes her “real.” I disagree. I think it’s unprofessional. The fan wasn’t trying to hurt her. They were just so happy to see her in person and they wanted to hold on to her. They did that to MJ all the time.
Beyonce got smacked on the booty and her weave pulled a couple of weeks ago. She may put you out, but that’s about it. Rihanna needs to act like the queen her fans CLAIM she is.
Beyonce cares too much about what people think of her! Rihanna doesn’t and that’s why we love her! Stop comparing them please!
Beyonce and Rihanna are two different people! Don’t get dragged King Bey..
By who…you? Baby, you don’t have the vocabulary or wit to drag me. So keep it cute. *toodle-loo*
Wow…
I love it! She deserved to be popped and it was hilarious! Most of you would have done the same thing. she’s human!
Ouch. She overreacted definitely.
You Rihanna fans are riding for her hard. I get it..but I think yall know she was wrong low key. That fan wasn’t trying to hurt her. Plus her bodyguard was right there. She wasn’t in danger.
The funny thing is Navy keeps going on about how much she loves them and how real she is. But she just clocked the sh-t out of one of yall because of a minor grab. She can’t even show up to her own concerts on time. Yes, she loves yall so much. *rolls eyes*
She’s not perfect but she is real! She actually interacts with us (her fans) and gives away concert tickets and buys flights for her die hard supporters. Don’t judge her without seeing the good things she does!
Navy is all up and through here. LOL.
On topic, she was wrong. The fan wasn’t trying to cause her any harm. Sometimes people just get a little too excited. We don’t know how hard the hit was but it sounded pretty loud in the video. She obviously has a temper. And that’s why it will never work with Chris.
Her time is all most up…when you start disrespecting your fans…….call it in.
TBH I think this is the beginning of her downfall. Showing up late to concerts then hittin fans with a mic. I dont get it. This is the same chick that was physically abused by her boyfirend. And you ridiculous fans praise everything she does. I bet if she shot somebody yall would say the victim deserves it. So stupid. Rihanna doesnt give a sh-t about anything but herself. I know this fan is gonna file a lawsuit no doubt. I hope its an eye opener. This heavy partying and wreckless behavior aint nothin but a cryvfor help. Im gone pray for the poor child
While I did find a little humor in the video, it was very inappropriate to hit a fan in the face during a concert. She had security with her, just let them do their job. I understand the need to protect oneself, however she took it too far. You are walking through a crowd touching the hands of your fans, it happens. Lay off the nose candy Rih…
That was uncalled for. She needs to grow up.
And this is why BEYONCE is queen. You think she would do something lyk dat to the Beyhive? But i can see why the navy finds this 2 b ”reel” its cuz they a bunch of project hoes…their use 2 it
