Rihanna‘s recent Savage X Fenty NYFW event in Brooklyn was a great success, with many praising the singer and entrepreneur for her performance at the gathering, as well as the overall style of the fashion show and the entertainment value it provided.
And it looks like Rihanna herself might have found a new idol at the show, pointing to fellow singer Lizzo.
RiRi had a lot of praise for her work, as well as for Lizzo herself, claiming that she was “so badass.” She stated: “Gosh I love Lizzo. She’s so badass.”
Afterward, Rihanna even went on to say that she would be happy to work with the 31-year-old rapper if she ever got a chance, although it was not clear what the other artist might think of the idea right now.
The “Truth Hurts” sensation did reply to the proposal jokingly by saying: “*sets up a studio in my coochie* READY FOR OUR COLLAB SIS 🥴.”
Rihanna added that Lizzo represented a lot of what her brand stood for, and saw her as a perfect image for it in the public eye.
The Barbadian pop superstar specifically pointed to Lizzo’s confident attitude, explaining that she found this an important trait of human character, and wanted to emphasize it as much as possible through her work in fashion and music.
The girlfriend of billionaire Hassan Jameel explained: “She is everything that Savage stands for. A confident woman, no matter what size, color, shape. Your attitude is what makes you savage. It’s the confidence that you have in yourself, and it’s the confidence that you can give off to people who look like you and feel like you and those are the people that identify with the brand.”
Online commenters applauded RiRi’s sense of marketing and the way she handled the interview.
One follower replied: “She’s so well trained they’re like “music collab,” and she ties that to Savage in a second and turns around the conversation. Legend.”
A second supporter added: “She’s so well trained they’re like “music collab” and she ties that to Savage in a second and turns around the conversation. Legend.”
In any case, Rihanna seems happy with the way her fashion show went, and she has been very pleased with the performance that was delivered on the stage, not just by her but by her peers as well. The entire thing will be available on Amazon Prime on September 30.
It was obvious that a lot of preparation had gone into making this happen, so it was good to see that Rihanna got all the praise that she deserved for her hard work and dedication in the end.
The hands-on fashion expert opened up about her work process by saying: “Oh my god I’m too involved. I want a break, but I’m a control freak, so I do everything. I see everything. There’s not one step of the way; there’s not one lace trim, there’s not one bra strap… there is not one bow on a panty that I do not see and approve.”
Rihanna will reportedly release an album later this year.
