When Rihanna needs something, she doesn’t just send an assistant or summon a private jet stocked with gold-plated shampoo bottles—nope, she heads straight to Target. Yes, you heard that right: the same store where you go in for toothpaste and come out with three candles, a throw blanket, and an air fryer you didn’t need.
The 36-year-old “Diamonds” queen and Fenty Beauty genius was spotted in full casual mode during a late-night Target run in New York City on Thursday (January 16). But don’t let the comfy black hoodie, matching sweatpants, and black slippers fool you—she accessorized with a Louis Vuitton bag because Rihanna doesn’t do regular. Even her errands have designer flair.
She stepped out makeup-free, because why would the inventor of a billion-dollar beauty brand need makeup? Rihanna’s bare face probably radiates enough glow to light up the entire skincare aisle. Rumor has it, she even waved at a pack of Oreos, and they spontaneously turned into a limited-edition Fenty flavor. (Okay, not really, but wouldn’t that be iconic?)
In a recent flex of willpower that most of us can only aspire to, Rihanna casually mentioned that she spent the entirety of 2024 not drinking alcohol. That’s right—no champagne, no wine, no nothing. While we’re over here barely making it through Dry January, Rihanna is lapping us all in the self-control Olympics.
Speaking of fabulous milestones, it’s been revealed that her boyfriend, A$AP Rocky, will serve as one of the celebrity co-chairs of the 2025 Met Gala. Translation: these two will be running the fashion world and Target’s clearance rack. We’re not worthy.
Rihanna proves once again that she’s just like us—except richer, cooler, and infinitely more stylish while buying laundry detergent.
