The longstanding feud between Rihanna and Naomi Campbell was placed on full display at New York Fashion Week inside the Guggenheim Museum. According to reports, Rihanna deliberately ignored Campbell during the event, seemingly snubbing her in a public display of animosity.

Pieter Mulier had Rihanna as the guest of honor on Friday night with an Alaïa show at the Guggenheim Museum to kickstart New York Fashion Week.

The guest list was a unique combination of gallerists, artists, photographers, and fashion enthusiasts who had earned their place among the greats.

Rihanna made two surprise NYFW appearances: the first was on the front row at the Alaïa show, and the second was to present an award at the 11th Fashion Media Awards.

The 36-year-old Umbrella singer looked stunning in a cleavage-spilling corset underneath a custom cream Alaïa crystal mesh gown with hundreds of seed pearls caught in its web.

The Rihanna-Naomi incident occurred under the watchful eyes of fashion watchers, who hoped the pair would at least share a moment of civility. They met with visible tension.

As seen from the viral post, Rihanna walked past Campbell without so much a glance.

Fans and attendees alike were stunned by the cold interaction, hoping that their feud, which allegedly started years ago, was a thing of the past. The root of their rift?

Many speculate that it may be related to a Saudi billionaire businessman who has been linked to both Rihanna and Campbell in the past.

The singer quietly dated Saudi billionaire and Toyota heir Hassan Jameel for over two years shortly after he was seen publicly flaunting Naomi Campbell.

Campbell’s relationship with Jameel was never confirmed, but the pair were photographed looking cozy when they attended the British Summer Time Festival in London in 2016.
