Kid casually asks Rihanna to take a pic for him

Imagine asking RiRi to take a snap for you as if she was an average person...

Is it a humble move or a sign of being forgettable? 

People have taken these two sides of the fence since a video showing a young boy asking Rihanna to take a picture of him posing with Premier League footballers went viral. 

The Pop Sensation and Business Mogul was kind enough to remain humble regardless of her accomplishments as a musician.

People have misread this situation for all the wrong reasons. Firstly, people on the internet are utterly disappointed with the young boy for not recognising pop queen Rihanna

Then some say that Rihanna must hurry up and release new music so she is not forgotten. 

And then there is another viewpoint we resonate with the most: those who say that Rihanna was being a good person by not refusing a child's request, mainly because that child was seeing his idols. 

"The lucky fan was a little more focused on getting a quick picture with UK Premier League footballers Jack Grealish, Christian Pulisic and Yunus Musah, who were all in New York for the Manchester City friendly against AC Milan." (Unilad)

The child cannot be blamed for not recognising Rihanna; he is a football fan, and not all sports fans know music well. Also, no one said that he didn't recognise her.

Check out some of the comments: 

  • "Asking a billionaire to take a picture of you & not with you is legendary."
  • "That's probably the one rare time Rhianna felt normal and not like a celeb. That moment was probably just as dope for her as it was for the little kid. Hell, the soccer players probably will forever remember it ( we had our picture taken by Rihanna). This group project gets an A."
  • "Stars feel good to be normal at times."
  • "Years to come he'll caption it like " 📸 by Rihanna."
  • "You won’t never too good to take a picture for a child with his idol ❤️love her."
