• Rihanna‘s come under fire today for making fun of a teenaged fan on Twitter. The young lady, 16-year-old Alexis Carter, paid homage to an Alexandre Vauthier look Riri rocked back in 2010. She recreated the hunter green batwing jumpsuit to wear to prom, which was apparently hilarious to her classmates, who circulated internet memes of Carter, with the hashtag #PromBat. Rihanna caught wind of the hashtag, and joined in on the ridicule, posting a side-by-side shot of herself and Carter, captioning it with a sad face. She then posted a second photo of the girl next to the Wu-Tang ‘W.’ People are calling Rih’s tweets cyberbullying, and Carter agrees. “She don’t love her fan like she says she does,” the teen told Fox News in Baltimore. “I was very offended. Why throw shade on it when you had on the exact same thing? The poses was different, but the outfit wasn’t.” Rihanna’s clapped back at fans before, but it seems pretty cruel to make fun of someone on their prom night–especially when you wore the same outfit. Perhaps her teasing was meant all in good fun, but as I’ve learned, a lighthearted joke might not seem so funny when you’re on the other end. (Fox Baltimore)
