To be Rihanna is to be constantly in close proximity to controversy. This week is another reminder of that universal law.
The Bajan songstress is being accused by fans of mimicking FKA twigs‘ look on the cover of i-D magazine’s Music Issue. Rihanna’s eccentric braided hair makes the cover stand out, which twigs’ supporters claim she adopted first. The ‘Video Girl’ singer has worn her hair in a similar style like this for her recent V magazine cover and, interestingly enough, on i-D as well. The video for ‘Pendulum‘ also features twigs bound by braided hair.
For many, this is a very serious matter.
Neither Rihanna nor FKA twigs have responded to the accusations, which are popping up all over Twitter. The latter has tweeted against controversy before, and Rihanna is heavy enough on social media to catch wind of the claims.
