Famous Barbadian singer, businesswoman, and actress, Robyn Rihanna Fenty, popularly known as Rihanna, has hit back at a fan who commented rudely about her appearance.
The incident occurred after the pop sensation shared a heartwarming video of her family eagerly anticipating the new year.
Rihanna recently customized a pizza for her son’s birthday and expressed her excitement in the clip while counting down to 2025.
However, one fan, identified as Lorenzo took to the comment section to criticize the singer’s forehead and ask if she was planning to release another album.
He referred to her by a derogatory remark about her forehead instead of using her name.
Rihanna wasted no time in responding to the unwarranted comment. She wrote: “You’re not cute enough to be calling me by my black name you dizzy f**k.”
The singer’s witty comeback garnered widespread attention on social media.
In the same video, Rihanna revealed that she had stayed sober throughout the year, expressing her joy at the arrival of the new year.
Her family, who had recently embraced Yoruba culture, joined in the celebration, shouting “Happy New Year” as they marked the moment together.
“I love her clap backs & her. We’re not getting no album any time soon attitude.”

“2 things. My black name has me on the floor. The fact that she wasn’t drunk at the Mariah concert is making them videos even better.”

“That album is never coming. Sis is living her best billionaire life.”

Rihanna Kicks Off 2025 With Shocking Revelation
Sticking to your New Year’s resolutions can be considered a whole resolution itself, but as she kicked off 2025, Rihanna celebrated achieving that goal.
On New Year’s Eve, the 36-year-old ‘Diamonds’ hitmaker turned to her official Instagram handle to drop an exciting video of herself with pals as she rang in 2025.
In the clip, the singer and her pals kicked off the countdown to the new year which Rihanna also flashed on her mobile screen.
But what was worth noting was the caption and the shocking habit that the ‘Unapologetic’ singer broke free from in the previous year.
After the singer excitedly kicked off the new year, she made a shocking revelation telling, “Y’all, I didn’t drink all year! I didn’t drink all year.”
Meanwhile, the post’s caption read, “New Year, New Me.”
The singer, who was dressed in a grey-colored gown for the new year celebration, stepped into the new year with a healthy approach towards life.
It isn’t immediately clear if the year-long abstinence from alcohol was a short-term decision, or if she will be extending her break from drinking for a longer period. She has also not publicly shared her reasons for quitting alcohol.
2024 was a quiet year for Rihanna, music-wise.
Cheering on Rihanna, her ardent fans and followers dropped loving responses and reactions.
“I love that she’s celebrating her NYE with me. Her close ones in a dressing gown in her bedroom! And sharing with us!”
One commented
“Happiest new year everyone’s bestie!”
Another wrote
“Who needs to drink when you have HERB? Happy Stoned Year!”
