While French cuisine was undoubtedly on the menu, it was global superstar Rihanna who served up the most memorable spectacle during a Tuesday evening outing at the legendary Parisian restaurant Lapérouse. The iconic eatery, a fixture on the Quai des Grands Augustins since 1766, played host to the Bajan singer as she arrived in truly show-stopping style.
A Fashionable Entrance in the French Capital
The thirty-seven-year-old singer inevitably commanded attention as she emerged from her vehicle wearing a cleavage-enhancing black evening dress that beautifully accentuated her famous curves. Rihanna completed her sophisticated look with heavily tinted sunglasses, an elegant black fur coat, and perfectly matching heels, ensuring that style was very much on the menu alongside the upscale gastronomy and quality cocktails.
This fashionable appearance forms part of Rihanna's current visit to Paris with her partner, rapper A$AP Rocky, during the prestigious Haute Couture Fashion Week. The celebrated couple, who have been dating since 2020, have been spotted enjoying various parties and luxurious dinners across the city throughout the past week. They are parents to three children: sons RZA Athelston, aged three, and Riot Rose, aged two, alongside their daughter Rocki Irish, who was welcomed into the world in September 2025.
Musical Tensions Surface in Candid Interview
While Rihanna enjoyed her evening at Lapérouse, her partner A$AP Rocky was making headlines elsewhere with remarkably candid comments about his relationship with fellow rapper Drake. During an interview with Ebro Darden on Apple Music this Wednesday, the New York City native openly discussed the reported feud between the two musical artists, who have both previously been romantically linked to Rihanna.
'I just don't f*** with him,' A$AP Rocky stated unequivocally when questioned about Drake. When Darden probed whether there was 'really an issue' between them, comparing it to a professional wrestling storyline designed for publicity, the rapper offered a nuanced perspective.
'I think hip-hop tactics and beefs is, like, WWF. It's like wrestling all the way, right? But this thing between us, it's not real smoke,' he explained. The hitmaker revealed that he and Drake, who collaborated on the 2012 track F***in' Problems, were once friends, but suggested their relationship deteriorated 'over females.'
Diss Track Speculation and Historical Context
This revealing dialogue follows significant speculation among fans that A$AP Rocky's new track Stole Ya Flow might be a diss track aimed directly at Drake. The lyrics include provocative lines such as: 'First you stole my flow, so I stole yo' bitch. Now I'm a father, my bitch badder than my toddler/ My baby mama Rihanna, so we unbothered.'
However, A$AP Rocky clarified his position during the interview, stating: 'It ain't just about one person. I'm talkin' to whoever - whoever feels like I'm talking to them.' He added thoughtfully: 'And I do think that it's petty … it's enough money. It's enough women. It's enough fame, spotlights to go around. But is it real smoke? It could never be.'
The complex history between these artists stretches back years, with Drake and Rihanna's on-again, off-again romance beginning around their 2010 collaboration What's My Name?, following her separation from Chris Brown. Their connection appeared strong as recently as the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards at Madison Square Garden, where Drake presented Rihanna with the Video Vanguard Award and publicly declared: 'She is someone I've been in love with since I was 22 years old. She's one of my best friends in the world.'
As Paris Fashion Week continues to unfold, Rihanna's impeccable style choices and A$AP Rocky's frank revelations about musical rivalries have created a compelling narrative that extends far beyond the catwalk, blending high fashion with hip-hop history in the City of Light.
