Alright, so I saw this trending topic online, “Is Rihanna gay?” It really got me curious, so I decided to dig a little deeper into it.

First, I started with some simple searches, just to get a feel for what people were saying about her relationships. I found out that her first big public relationship was with Chris Brown. They met when they were both just starting out in the music world and even made some songs together. It was pretty well-known, especially after her song “Umbrella” blew up.
Then I dug a bit more and saw that Chris Brown and Rihanna were a big thing. It seemed like her most talked-about relationship, even now. So that part is pretty straight, no signs of anything else there.
Moving on, I checked for more recent stuff and stumbled upon rumors about her and the rapper from “Wild for the Night.” Apparently, they were spotted together after she split from someone named Jameel in January 2020. Some websites confirmed that they were an item, but it wasn’t clear how serious it was. Still, another guy in the picture, so still nothing to suggest she’s gay.
I also looked into one of her music videos where she had a love interest played by Dudley O’Shaughnessy. The video showed them in all sorts of scenes, both loving and fighting. Again, another male love interest.
My conclusion
- Looked up her past relationships.
- Found info on her relationship with Chris Brown.
- Read about rumors with another rapper.
- Checked out one of her music videos.
So, after all this digging, I didn’t find anything that really suggests Rihanna is gay. All the info I came across pointed to her being in relationships with men. Of course, this is just based on what’s public, and who knows what goes on behind closed doors. But from what I gathered, it looks like the answer to “Is Rihanna gay?” is probably no.
