Rihanna Has 5-Word Response After Security Guard Lets Door Close on Her

Rihanna dished out a few choice words to a security guard who didn’t hold the door for her while exiting the Four Seasons Hotel in New York City.

Rihanna is work, work, work, work, working overtime.

While the Fenty Beauty founder was being escorted out of the Four Seasons Hotel in New York City, a member of her security team walked too far ahead of her, leaving Riri momentarily trapped between the budling’s double doors. But she wasn’t expecting him to necessarily have that on the brain.

After all, once she opened her own door to continue towards the car, the “Diamonds” hitmaker shared a subtle clapback with the bodyguard. As she joked in the Jan. 17 video shared to X, “Such a gentleman you are.”

For the outing, Rihanna—who shares kids RZA, 3, Riot, 2, and Rocky, 4 months, with A$AP Rocky—sported a polo shirt, black fitted pants, and white pumps. To top off the look, she wore an oversized coat and sunglasses.

And it was clear that the Grammy winner wasn’t taking any chances a second time, as she closed her own door after entering the backseat of the waiting car.

And this wouldn’t be the first time that the 37-year-old has been filmed talking that talk.

Recently, she attended pal Mariah Carey’s Here For It All Holiday Special concert at Dolby Live in Las Vegas Dec.13. At the event, she sat elevated above the audience to enjoy the performance. But while Mariah sang her iconic hit “We Belong Together,” Rihanna was asked by a nearby concertgoer to stop blocking her view, prompting the “Love on the Brain” singer to launch a few choice words in return.

In the fan-captured video, the “Umbrella” singer sways to the R&B classic before blowing Mariah a kiss. Shortly after, she was asked by the fellow fan to lower down from her perched view in order to see better. The mom of three replied, “Oh, s–t!”

But not everyone seemed to agree with the fan that asked Rihanna to take a bow, literally.

As the user captioned the video, “The audacity to yell at Rihanna to sit down while she’s fangirling over Mariah is wild.”

And while Rihanna certainly knows her way around a clapback, her style evolution is just as iconic. For a look back at her best looks throughout the years, read on…
