Rihanna had a Fenty Beauty party in London last night, where, in addition to playing beer pong and shooting out fake dollar bills, she did karaoke in front of the crowd. RiRi sang the classic Brandy and Monica hit, 'The Boy Is Mine,' and, in true queen style, one of her own songs—'Rehab.'
How good do you imagine Rihanna would be at karaoke? Well, she's even better in reality. Partygoers captured all her spirited performances.
Up until the Fenty Beauty party, Rihanna had kept a pretty low profile. She was last photographed out at a Los Angeles Lakers game with her billionaire boyfriend, Hassan Jameel, at the end of February. It was during her birthday weekend.
She was also shot attending a birthday party thrown for her at Wally's restaurant earlier that week in Beverly Hills. She wore a neon green dress, because she's Rihanna, and she can do what she wants.
As for album updates, the singer did confirm that new music would be coming out sometime this year, but she has not provided a more specific date. She responded to a fan question about when 'the album is dropping' on Instagram in December 2018. Her comment was just one word: '2019.'
Rihanna has otherwise been focused on her beauty brand and lingerie line. She teased her Savage x Fenty line's new drop, which happened on April 1, and her new eight-shade bronzer line for Fenty Beauty, which will arrive on April 5.
As Rihanna put it, she and her team spent years creating the line.
'It took over 2 years for me to create our #SUNSTALKR BRONZER with every skin tone in mind!' she wrote on her Instagram. 'Look out for it at fentybeauty.com, @sephora, @harveynichols, and #SephorainJCP.'
