It's been a year of peaks and valleys for Rihanna, and through it all she's managed to stay poised and popular to her public. Her new hair, new tracks, and her new single status have been making the rounds, and men, as ever, continue to drool.
But it takes more than gumption and gifts to sweep Riri off her feet. Hell, sending a bottle of Champagne to her table at a club won't even guarantee you a "thanks" from the Barbados beauty.
New York Jets' receiver Braylon Edwards learned the hard way that Rihanna is not desperate for a man's attention. In fact, she's suspicious of uninvited treatment.
Recently at The Bank at LA's Wonderland Nightclub, the NFL player and his cohorts partied near the songstress who was enjoying the company of her assistant/BFF Melissa Ford and fellow recording artist and friend, James Blunt. In a move to impress her, Braylon sent over a $10,000 bottle of champagne to the Grammy Award winner's table. Now you'd think the sending over of a 10 grand bottle of booze is the impressive part of this story, but it comes second to this: a partygoer remarked, "She didn't know who they were, so she sent it back." That's right, Rihanna was gifted a ten thousand dollar bottle of bubbly at a club and SENT IT BACK.
Damn! That's one smooth move I'm not sure I'd have the grace to replicate. I guess accepting a gift of that magnitude from a stranger has a touch of the "what does this mean if I take it" vibe to it, and anyway, girl can basically afford to bathe in that stuff if she wants. Still, he was flexing his purse and she straight up refused it. Ouch! Apparently, "Edwards' rep says Braylon later introduced himself and all was well." I'm sure (wink).
Let this serve as a warning to all you cocky men out there who think you've got a shot (in your wallet) with Princess Ri. You wanna talk to Rihanna? Send a written request first. Otherwise, she just might boomerang that expensive gift back to you... in front of your friends.
