Rihanna Supports A$AP Rocky at Concert Amid Backlash

Rihanna made a public show of support for A$AP Rocky by attending his Los Angeles concert with their son Riot Rose, following backlash over comments he made during a performance in Phoenix, Arizona. The 38-year-old singer was seen looking downcast in a car the day after Rocky's remarks, but appeared at the show with the couple's two-year-old son.

Rocky's Controversial Comments

During a concert in Phoenix, A$AP Rocky, 37, told women near the front of the stage: 'Thank God y'all didn't know me when I was single, 'cause I would've f***** the sh** out of you.' Many fans deemed the comment 'disrespectful' to Rihanna, with whom he has been in a relationship since 2021. The couple share three children: Rza (four), Riot (two), and Rocki (nine months).

Concert Appearance and Family Moment

Despite speculation of a rift, Rihanna brought Riot Rose to the show. Rocky acknowledged his son from the stage, saying, 'Riot Rose, hey son. Daddy loves you, son.' The toddler, wearing ear defenders, smiled and pointed as Rihanna gestured toward the stage. The couple typically keeps their children out of the spotlight.

Previous Security Incident

The family recently endured a frightening incident when shots were fired at their Los Angeles home. A 35-year-old woman from Orlando, Florida, was charged with attempted murder after allegedly firing at least 10 shots from a semiautomatic rifle across the street. According to police reports obtained by the Daily Mail, Rihanna was inside an Airstream trailer when she heard '10 loud bangs on metal.' She reportedly grabbed Rocky, told him they were being shot at, and pushed both to the ground. The couple then ran to the garage to secure their children and staff. No one was injured, but Rihanna was left shaken.
