The girl named, “Obsession of the Year” by GQ mag has taken flight. Rihanna has started her seven shows in seven countries in seven days tour and the first stop is: Mexico City. Next will be Toronto, Stockholm, Paris, Berlin, London, and the last show will be in New York City. RiRi has started the party on the plane with good drinks and good food. Check out the photos. I wanna goooo! Drop down bottom for more.
So, I don’t know what I was expecting for a Rihanna plane but the exterior and interior of the Boeing aircraft is, well, totally regular, save the fact that Rihanna is actually onboard. I know that was the point, but given how mega famous girl is, I don’t think I would’ve been shocked if she rode in a tiny, sleek plane alongside us with just a select crew of cronies and all different food, gobs of quality booze and pleasantly scented air.
The inside of a 777 is set up so that you’re seated in three columns of three. Well, at least most of us are. There’s a secret, well-guarded cubby area waaaay in the front where Rihanna and her people are, then there’s business class where her sound people, label reps, DJs go. I have no idea what Riri’s rarified region looks like but business class is pretty sick because they’ve got those little sleep pod jams that you see in fancy ads for flights to Dubai. And then there’s the rest of us packed in like journalist sardines. With another segment dedicated to Rihanna’s die-hard fans and members of her Navy. Nobody’s really talking to anyone they didn’t know before, but it is interesting that we all have full-size pillows and NICE blankets. As well as a crew of flight attendants who are extra accommodating and shiny with great hair. I talked to a silver-haired guy from Seattle and apparently they were selected from a “VIP pool” specifically for such flights and there’s definitely something less cranky and more pretty about them.
