A Talk Show Host Just Called Out Rihanna on Her Iconic Wine Glass Heists


Rihanna and four other members of the Ocean’s 8 cast—namely, Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Sarah Paulson, and Helena Bonham Carter—appeared on The Graham Norton show last night to promote the film’s much-anticipated international release. But the movie wasn’t the only heist (did you see those box-office numbers??) to be talked about on the show: The show’s eponymous host, Graham Norton, had a little bone to pick to Rihanna about her iconic, repeated, heist-y behavior of her own. Behavior that includes an alleged appropriation of wine glasses from public drinking establishments.

While Norton is just grilling Rihanna on her habit now, eagle-eyed RiRi fans have been loving her crystalline accessory on social media since 2016. One Twitter user in particular, Josh Edwards, went so far as to create a dedicated, comprehensive thread for the wine glass sightings instance on his account.

“All I’m saying is, watch yourself around Rihanna,” Norton started off by saying. “Now, Rihanna. I don’t know if you know how criminal you are.”

Norton then presented the audience with intense photographic evidence of Rihanna, time after time, smuggling glasses out of establishments and onto the street. He started with a 2013 photo of the pop powerhouse holding a glass on the street. (Yes, it seems this habit has been going on for at least half a decade.) He then proceeded, bravely, to ask RiRi, “Did you ask permission from the club when you left holding this glass?”

Rihanna had an excellent retort: “That might have been one I took to the club.”

“What about this one? Did you ask about that glass?” Norton said after he showed his second piece of photographic evidence of Rihanna. He then proceeded to show four more instances in which the “Wild Thoughts” singer left with various different wine glasses in hand. Norton topped it off with the grand finale: Rihanna holding an entire bottle of wine.

Below, a few instances of Rihanna taking her wine to go:

After sufficient proof of her “crimes”, Rihanna conceded his point. Mostly though, she was worried about what her mom, Monica Fenty, would think: “My mom is going to see this,” she conceded. “Sorry, Mom!”
