As a working mother who is running successful cosmetics and fashion companies (while hopefully working on some new music for us), you can understand why billionaire beauty Rihanna might like to unwind with a drink every now and then. But what you may not know is that your girl likes to take her drink (and the glass it came in) to go.

“I don’t know if you know how criminal you are,” talk show host Graham Norton told the ‘Rude Boy’ singer before showing her a collection of photos where she’s boldly leaving venues with their drinkware in hand. Because after all, who is going to tell Rihanna she can’t leave with their glass?

We will never run out of reasons to love RiRi, so here are some of our favorite photos of her with a glass in her hand.

Once he got a look at those thigh-high Puma boots, we’re sure the hotel doorman didn’t notice Rihanna leaving with their wine glass.

The only thing we love more than Rihanna’s red lip and loose beachy waves is the way she’s holding on to her glass of vino.

Vampire-Inspired

The dark lipstick, shades, velvet dress and glass of red wine in this 2017 photo is giving a serious vampire vibe.

We think this glass of red wine provided the perfect inspiration for RiRi’s bold lip color.

Why take a glass when you can take the whole bottle?

RiRi takes time to smile for the cameras before she makes her exit in a lingerie-inspired look…and a champagne flute.

When asked by Graham Norton to explain what was going on here, RiRi responded, “That might have been one that I took to the club.”

“I Took That One Back!”

Rhianna accessorized her outfit with gorgeous gold sunglasses and a glass of white wine. Although she admitted to taking the glass, Rihanna said she did give it back.

“I took that back to the hotel I took it from,” she told Graham Norton.

Solo Cup Chic

But don’t get it twisted, ya girl can keep it 100 and roll out with her drink in a red Solo cup.
