Rihanna's in town!

She's playing the Aviva tonight and roughly one in five Irish people have been personally affected by one of her songs at 3am in a nightclub. Rihanna is definitely a cool girl and being her friend would be a deeply unsettling task, as you would very quickly realise how uncool you are. Here's 21 intimidatingly cool things Rihanna definitely does.

---

1. Goes out without a jacket and actively encourages you to do the same. 2. Doesn't get her car serviced before the NCT and still manages to pass. 3. Drinks an entire bottle of Lucozade as she works her way around the Supermarket, then "forgets" to pay for it at the till. 4. Goes into town for a look around and returns home with a new piercing, three bags from Penneys and a soy decaf iced latte. 5. Lights a cigarette in a nightclub bathroom and tries to place the blame elsewhere. 6. Somehow manages not to get her hair wet through a swimming cap and doesn't make a big deal about it. 7. Turns up late for work and delays herself further by sauntering around making a cup of tea immediately as she arrives in. 8. Wears odd socks by accident, but brazenly allows them to show by rolling up her jeans. 9. Haphazardly buys clothes without trying them on first, then goes home to find that they fit perfectly. 10. Genuinely forgets to eat all day. 11. Reads books on long journeys without getting carsick. 12. Doesn't put her date of birth on Facebook so only true friends know when to wish her a Happy Birthday. 13. Expertly reverse parallel parks on the first attempt. 14. Goes out without wearing a bra and literally nobody can tell the difference. 15. Pulls ugly faces on Snapchat but still manages to look flawlessly stunning. 16. Stuffs a naggin in her bra outside a festival and breezes past security by excessively flirting with them. 17. Tells the bus driver she's paying €2.10 but only puts €1.80 in the machine.  18. Sleeps very soundly on the night of Christmas Eve. 19. Doesn't study for her Leaving Cert but still manages to get 475 points. 20. Writes her address on important documents as BarBAEdos. 21. Refuses to pay anything above 20c for a Freddo. Rightfully so.
