Rihanna Looks Unrecognizable In Recent Outing, Netizens Divided Over THIS

Rihanna has recently made a striking impression in Los Angeles, California with her fresh new look.

The 35-year-old's recent paparazzi photo on X, formerly Twitter, sparked an uproar on the internet.

Striking a pose, the "Diamonds" hitmaker was photographed in a chic ensemble consisting of graphic pants, gray hoodie, and striking snakeskin shoes. To add an extra touch of flair to her outfit, she wore a lengthy tan overcoat atop her hoodie.

Rihanna kept her beauty look very natural, allowing her blonde locks to take center stage.
Recently, the Oscar-nominated artist reverted back to her blonde shade - a style she used to rock in the 2010s.

In response, one fan tweeted their admiration for Rihanna's ability to reinvent herself saying, "She slays every style effortlessly. Queen of reinvention and forever stunning."

However, reactions to the look of her recent were mixed, according to The Sun.

"Oh mine ... she's beautiful," one declared. A second concurred: "Oh my god, she looks absolutely gorgeous."

However, not everyone was taken with her new look. "[Blonde hair] doesn't suit her," someone remarked unfavourably.

When fans saw RiRi's striking new look, they couldn't help but ask the question - is new music also on the way?

One fan even tweeted their excitement "Woah, she looks so good!"

Rihanna New Music

For quite a while, Rihanna has been offering clues to her fans about the much-anticipated "R9" album.

Reggae appears to be the primary source of inspiration for this particular collection of music.
Since last year Rihanna has been working on this project in the recording studio.

True to form, she is likely to reveal exact dates one month prior to its official release date.

It has been six years since Rihanna dropped her last studio album - "Anti" in 2016. But in 2022, news of a fresh album had fans enthralled. A source close to Rihanna told media last year that she is "getting ready to release this year."

Responding to her fans' pleas for something fresh, she has been eager to fulfill their requests. After all, this is something she had long envisaged doing for them.

Speculation had it that the following album from Rihanna could be her swan song for a while.

The insider reported that after the record, she'd be devoting more attention to motherhood and her Fenty beauty and fashion business which was her main passion. Nevertheless, the anticipated release never materialized in 2022.
