Rihanna has worn some ugly shit in her day, but she’s generally pretty fashionable/hot/etc. Of course, people love her and want to look like her, especially her younger teenage fans, so they attempt to recreate some of their idol’s best looks in their own lives… with varying results.
Well, now people are all up in arms because 16-year-old high school student Alexis Carter attempted to remake an Alexandre Vauthier outfit that RiRi wore back in March 2010, only to seemingly be made fun of by the singer herself on Twitter.

Frankly, I think people are a little up in arms here. Rihanna always used to mess with her fans on Instagram (before she shut it down, wahhhh!) and I don’t think she was trying to be mean or anything. People are just too sensitive – including Alexis herself, who told the New York Daily News:
“I was very offended,” Alexis said about the star’s tweets. “Why throw shade on it when you had on the exact same thing. The poses was different but the outfit wasn’t.”
Carter was so unhappy with Rihanna’s tweets that she said she was no longer a fan, and that for her next prom, she would not dress up as her former idol.
“She doesn’t love her fans like she says she does,” Carter said.
LOL, okay then. Good lord.
Maybe Rihanna thought that the girl was making fun of her and that’s why she made the :( . With the way that girl is posing it kinda looks like it.
Based on the way in which Rihanna typically responds to individuals “making fun” of her on twitter, I highly doubt she believed the girl was making a joke of her and was offended. I do not see how it could have been so difficult to simply comment with “beautiful”, or something of the like, which would have made the girl’s life. Instead she went to all the trouble to make two posts that led to countless instances of cyberbullying from Rihanna’s fans. Rihanna is stuck up her ass so far that she fails to realize she is a sub par singer who is famous only for her ability to gyrate half-naked to songs others write for her.
This Nicole! WTF is up with this girl? She’s not that talented or special. When I hear one of her songs, I can’t tell the difference between her and about 40 other mediocre singers. Just don’t get the hype around her.
She likes to show everything besides her vagina (that might change soon) which is what most people like.
