Rihanna Uplifts Cancer-Battling Fan In Viral Grocery Store Encounter

Rihanna delivered an emotional moment of encouragement during a recent grocery run, captured in a new episode of Grocery Shopping With Rihanna, released Monday. At a Bristol Farms location in Southern California, a woman battling cancer approached the singer for a photo, apologizing for her appearance. “I look terrible; I live with cancer. I don’t have my wig on,” the fan said. Rihanna immediately pushed back. “You don’t look terrible,” she replied. Upon learning the fan shares her real name, Robyn, Rihanna added, “Anytime you meet anybody, don’t do that s–t. You’re fire just like that.” The fan asked permission to quote Rihanna going forward.
