Rihanna’s “Work” Is Tired, According To $6M Wedding Performance Critics

Rihanna is still royalty no matter what!

Rihanna’s recent commissioned performance is drawing the ANTI vocalist some flak due to critics suggesting her set was flat and subpar.

In case you missed it, RiRi recently took her talents all the way to India to fulfill a multi-million dollar performance booking for Anat Ambani, the son of one of the the richest men on the continent, billionaire Mukesh Ambani. Even though Rihanna trekked all the way to Jamnagar for the performance at the pre-wedding party, which was her first performance in eight years, the reviews of her set have been seemingly horrendous.

Once videos of her set, which included hits such as “Work” and Kanye West’s “All Of The Lights,” social media users honed in on moments that have since been categorized as “lazy” among other things and tee’d off on RiRi’s alleged $6.1 million performance.

“Bro, what is she doing,” one X user wrote.

In a reply in the thread, another user added, P##### because she was paid millions for this performance and she is giving such “damn here you go” energy [crying laughing enoji] she looks so beautiful but it’s not giving rehearsed for very long or really that invested in giving a professional well thoughtout performance.”

Despite all of the rigamarole, RiRi appeared to enjoy her experience in India and even took time to fraternize with guests at the weeding—so it couldn’t have been all bad. Not to mention, one X user pointed out that Ambani is set to acquire the rights to Sephora in India, which means Fenty Beauty will soon be available in the highest populated country in the world at 1.4 billion, according to Business Insider. Furthermore, India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world in 2024—making this a major money move for Rihanna in the long run.
