I suppose that when you’re one of the richest musicians in the world and a fledgling multi-industry mogul, you can pretty much do what you want; there probably aren’t many people who say no to the powerhouse that is Rihanna. And look, nine times out of ten, that’s probably a good thing, but this film noir advert she’s just dropped is a big swing, and we’re not quite sure if it’s a miss or a hit.
The two-min short, titled Born to Steal: Yours, Mine, Ours, sees RiRi play a bandit of some sort, alongside A$AP Rocky who narrates the movie in a homage to 1950s Hollywood. The voiceover is clearly not A$AP which makes it funny, bordering on strange.

Of course, with Rihanna being the savvy businesswoman that she is, there’s a product involved with the theft of A$AP’s Fenty Lux Balm being the real crime…
Does it make sense? Is it even good? That’s for you to decide. You can buy the lip balm here… or you can completely forget you even watched this video and go about your day.
