Rihanna ripped for ‘lazy’ performance at Indian billionaire’s bash despite ‘being paid $6M’

Rihanna critics don’t think she put any work into her recent performance.

The Grammy Award-winning superstar performed in India Friday night at the pre-wedding celebration for billionaire Anant Ambani and his bride, Radhika Merchant Jamnagar, and she’s being slammed for putting on a “lackluster” and “boring” show.

“She got that coin and said f–k y’all ima do what I can😭😭,” one X user wrote under one of the several videos of her performing at the elaborate celebration that have been shared on social media.

    • @@seismic6435So? It is about the Indian family, not her. They paid her a huge sum of money to perform and she was lazy after accepting the offer. The family deserves a refund 🤦🏽‍♂️

    • ​@@seismic6435 6 million does mean something otherwise why would she even agree to it? Most foreign celebs only come to india after they’ve lost relevance in their country. No celebrity come to india at their peak plus when they do come they always perform with no enthusiasm and energy. Couple of years ago the biebs was accused for the same reason. This only proves these so called celebs don’t respect the indian audience which to me is quite egoistic behaviour they think indian audience don’t deserve the performance. 😐😐😐

    • @@stanbily9416 1. “Huge” is relative.

      2. She’s pregnant. That’s like saying her Super Bowl performance was lazy

    • @Iseehowitis009  because a free $6 mil is a free $6 mil. I make a decent salary and still pick up change I find on the street. Do you have other examples of entertainers in India or just those two?

    • Why is that a waste, If he is a fan? She’s not the only person Indian billionaires have spent money to be near? SMH

    • Ri is not the Queen or Princess anymore and I’ve been a fan since 2005 and I’ve been to a concert back in in her prime and it is clear the last 8 years she wants NOTHING to do with music even before the babies. The Blk panther theme song, Superbowl and now This is a CLEAR SIGN she wants to sit on her billions and raise a family. Even Beyonce with a broken leg KILLED it in Dubai. It is what it is.

  • Rhisnna from my high school years is GONE. Its been evident for years now she wants NOTHING to do with music. This and Superbowl was tragic.

  • I don’t know what she had done..no dressing sense ,no performance 😢😢better Ambani should donate me 25 lacs to build a home

  • I can’t find not one performance on YouTube or anywhere don’t tell us the Rihanna is lazy show us the proof RIHANNA ALWAYS PUTS HER ALL INTO HER MUSIC AND PROFORMANCE🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤

  • If you have the money, definitely have a nice celebration like a nice location, pay for your friends and family to come, professional photographer, etc. but definitely not 6 million for a singer…
