Rihanna has responded to a social media troll who referred to her as "forehead." The 36-year-old singer clapped back after posting a video on Instagram celebrating her sobriety and the start of 2025.

In the video, filmed from a hotel room in New York City, Rihanna says, "Y'all I didn’t drink all year. I didn’t drink all year!" However, one user named Lorenzo took the opportunity to mock her appearance while also urging her to release her long-awaited new album. His message read: "We want an album forehead."

Rihanna, who hasn’t released an album since Anti in 2016, wasted no time firing back. She replied, “Listen, Lorenzo! You ain’t cute enough to be calling me by my Black name, you dizzy f***!” (sic)

In recent years, Rihanna has focused on her fashion and beauty brands. Her Fenty Beauty line has been a massive success, and she has shared that she is deeply involved in the development of the products. The award-winning star, who founded the beauty brand in 2017, told TIME magazine, "I have 100 percent involvement in this process, which is what makes this so special and very fun. I have so much creative freedom from products to packaging, and that’s really the only way this brand will stay true to my vision for it."
