Rihanna has been busy recently.
Besides her day job of making squillions of dollars on smash hits:
And generally making everyone else look basic:
She's also been acting her little socks off in Ocean's 8.
And that isn't it, apparently.
In the new trailer for Bates Motel, Rihanna makes a soggy appearance.
If you're no familiar which the TV (get familiar), it's a sort of prequel/ spin-off of Alfred Hitchcock's classic Psycho, and this is it's last season.
Last some our girl Ri Ri announced she would indeed be playing the infamous Marion Crane in this video.
Marion Crane who reached a rather grisley end that heralded the dawn of 'slasher horror' films.
Again, if you're not familiar (who are you?!), think of a shadowy figure approaching a shower curtain, knife in hand alongside screaming and dramatic violin playing, got it?
We think Rihanna is the perfect choice to fill-out the character of Marion and give her the modern edge the show needs.
But although we're super happy Rihanna is stretching her acting chops, please don't let this be the end of popstar Rihanna.
We need her.
