After taking a brief break to recover from exhaustion, Riri returns to the stage for the Robin Hood Foundation Benefit as an Egyptian queen.
- May 16, 2012
AceShowbiz - Rihanna put her health scare behind. Just a few days after reportedly visiting doctor due to exhaustion, the Barbados singer was back on stage to help raise funds for the Robin Hood Foundation Benefit at the Jacob K Javits Convention Center in New York.
Riri channeled her inner Egyptian queen by putting on a gold glittery eye makeup with white and blue hues and completing her look with a snake headdress. For her outfit, she oozed sex appeal in a bra top and a pair of leopard-print slashed pants a la Princess Jasmine.
She performed "Only Girl (In the World)", "Run This Town" and "Live Your Life". She was accompanied by some shirtless male dancers in one set and was backed up by some females wearing veils in another. At one point, she sang her song while sitting on a leopard-print throne.
The event was also made merry by music veteran Neil Young and rapper Black Thought. Hosted by Brian Williams and Seth Meyers, it was attended by Chelsea Clinton & her husband Marc Mezvinsky, Eli Manning & his wife Abby, as well as Tyra Banks among other public figures.
