Rihanna arrives at the 2023 Oscars in t-shirt, sneakers and bucket hat: ‘She’s a vibe’

Rihanna arrived at the 2023 Oscars in classic Rihanna style: an NFL jersey, sneakers and a bucket hat.

The 35-year-old singer will perform her Oscar-nominated song “Lift Me Up” from the film Black Panther: Wakanda Forever at the 95th Academy Awards on Sunday March 12th. Ahead of the awards ceremony, Rihanna arrived at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles looking pretty casual.

In a video shared by Us weeklyRihanna can be seen at the venue wearing a gray Philadelphia Eagles jersey, a green bucket hat by Jean Paul Gaultier and black and white Puma sneakers.

The relaxed look prompted many amusing reactions from fans on Twitter, as several users expressed that they would expect nothing less from Rihanna.

“Rihanna dresses casual and skips the red carpet while everyone is dressed up…I love her sm,” one fan wrote on Twitter.

“She’s a mood,” said another.

One Twitter user said Rihanna channels “going to work late with a Starbucks Cup energy,” while another tweeted, “When I get called to do something I don’t want to do.”

Although Rihanna arrived at the Dolby Theater in the casual look that many people assumed was intended for Oscar rehearsals, she ended up gracing the red carpet ahead of the awards show.

The “Diamonds” singer showed off her growing baby bump in a tailored leather strap dress by Alaïa. She layered the cut-out dress over a black turtleneck bodysuit and completed the look with Giuseppe Zanotti heels. As for her hair, Rihanna styled her long brown locks in a high bun.

Ahead of this year’s Oscars, Rihanna jokingly posted about her little boy’s reaction when he found out he wouldn’t be attending the ceremony, but his unborn sibling would.

“My son when he found out his siblings were going to the Oscars and not him,” she captioned the post, which showed a picture of her 10-month-old son looking teary-eyed as he looked up at his mom from his crib. However, the slideshow showed him in a much happier mood as he watched his mom’s music video for “Lift Me Up.”

The fashion moment at the Oscars marks Rihanna’s first red carpet appearance since announcing her second pregnancy at Super Bowl 2023 last month. During the Fenty mogul’s halftime show, Rihanna confirmed she was pregnant with her second child — nearly nine months after she and rapper A$AP Rocky welcomed their baby boy in May 2022.
