Rihanna, 36, Posts Steamy Update on Social Media after India Pre-wedding Performance Criticism

Rihanna recently appeared in a provocative Instagram video after having been criticized for a performance she gave for the richest family in India. The songstress seemed unaffected by the comments she received regarding her performance.

In the world of fashion and social media, 36-year-old Rihanna remains an unassailable force. The songstress's latest move is a testament to her unbreakable spirit in the face of criticism. Recently, her business page, Savage x Fenty, on Instagram, became the platform for a steamy video.

The post showcased a video montage of the Barbadian singer donning the brand's lingerie across various occasions. The caption illuminated Rihanna's enduring love for the brand, stating that she had been wearing the pieces since day one. It further enticed fans by sharing her favorite picks from the collection, now featured under "Rihanna's Favorites" on the website, inviting them to shop the coveted items.

The video was set to a voice over of the mother-of-two talking about the brand, saying that the pieces were essential to every woman's collection of lingerie because they were sexy, but simple. She shared that while the bras were smooth, they still offered support. Just a day after posting, the video had received over 25,000 likes.

This bold display of confidence and self-assurance comes in the wake of Rihanna's performance at a pre-wedding ceremony in India, a spectacle that drew the ire of critics. As videos of her performance began circulating online, the feedback was a mixed bag of sharp criticism and humor.

Comments ranged from the sarcastic "Go girl, give us nothing" and the playful jab "Is the performance in the room with us?" to more pointed critiques like "I've always said she's an incredibly lazy performer.....she never took the time to improve her performances." Despite the negative backlash, some fans expressed their enduring love for the singer, even as they lamented the performance's "lackluster" quality, with remarks highlighting a perceived history of subpar performances, leaving them unsurprised by the recent turn of events.

This performance comes just one year after Rihanna performed the Superbowl Halftime Show. Amidst the whirlwind of commentary, it's noteworthy that Rihanna's journey to India was not just another performance but a milestone event, as she graced the pre-wedding party of the son of India's wealthiest individual in Jamnagar. For her appearance, Rihanna commanded a staggering fee of $6.3 million.

The three-day celebration was also attended by global CEOs, Bollywood favorites, other pop stars and even some politicians. The entire wedding celebration cost $152 million. Although she received much criticism for her performance at the celebration, Rihanna seemed unbothered by it.
