Cameras are always rolling whenever Rihanna is on the scene. The superstar has had all eyes on her throughout her foray in Europe, which includes attending the 78th annual Cannes Film Festival, Paris Fashion Week, and the red carpet for the Smurfs premiere in Belgium. Her bold fashion choices have dominated social media, but it’s the tender moments, from parenting her son Riot to making a fan’s dream come true, that truly stole the spotlight.
Even when she’s on the clock, RiRi has proven that she is happy to make a fan’s day — and this also includes paparazzi. Such was the case when one lucky young lady was granted a chance encounter with the singer while on the blue carpet at the Smurfs premiere. The recording artist voices Smurfette in the animated flick. While interviewing with “Entertainment Tonight” host Kevin Frazier, an emotional fan became the center of attention.
“This girl is crying ‘cause she just wants to see you… Let her… Please, ‘cause she is crying,” said Frazier as he interrupted their chat to draw the pop icon’s attention to the girl. The “Friend of Mine” singer motioned for the tearful onlooker to join her as she gushed to Frazier, “You’re so nice!” The hysterical fan not only got to hug the Bajan beauty but also scored a photo. Between the tears and shock, she managed to tell the mogul, “You’re so beautiful! I love you so much!”
Rihanna and Riot Rose turn heads at Paris Fashion Week
Last week, Rihanna brought son Riot Rose to the Spring/Summer 2026 AWGE fashion show, where ASAP Rocky debuted the “Obligatory Fashion” collection. Seated in the front row, the mommy-son duo beamed with pride as Rocky hit the runway.
The little one may be one of only two people who can outshine his famous parents — big brother RZA being the other. Riot is still new to walking and talking, but when it comes to showing up and out for the flashing paparazzi cameras, he seems like a pro.
Parisian photographers also caught an adorably playful exchange between the Grammy Award winner and her second-born as they arrived at the Royal Monceau Hotel. Rihanna was dressed in casual attire, a gray crop top and gray wide-legged cargo pants, as she held her son’s hand. The toddler wore a coordinated blue outfit and black and white checkered Vans. Instead of breezing past the photo opportunity, she indulged in the paps, even helping Riot pose and instructing him to smile at the cameras.
From red carpets to runway shows, Rihanna’s Paris trip has been about more than making fashion statements — it has equally been a celebration of family, and that extends to the Navy, her loyal fans, too. t
