Thatโs what Rihanna would have you believe.

On Tuesday, photos of Rihanna caught in a heated discussion with rumored on-again, off-again boyfriend, Saudi billionaire Hassan Jameel, flooded the internet with speculation and rumors.
Were they on again? Was there trouble in paradise (in this case, Mexico)? Was Rihanna wearing Fenty Body Lava in the middle of their dispute? Why was Jameel still wearing a trucker cap in the year of our lord, 2018? What could make the singer and beauty mogul, so notorious for being bereft of fucks, look so bothered?
On Thursday, Rihanna hinted at what had inspired their passionate debate.
โwhen u think u know more bout soccer ๐ผ๐ช๐ฟ #worldcup2018" Rihanna wrote as a caption to a photo of two lions: the male lion taking an earful from his female counterpart. Clearly, the image evoked Rihanna and Jameelโs own heated display.
The story tracksโthe bad gyal is a noted sports fan. We know sheโs a big fan of the NBA and of LeBron James, specifically (but Kevin Durantโnot so much).
So now a new tide of speculation begins: What about the Cup were they arguing about? Was Rih-Rih defending Neymarโs dramatic dives (โItโs a valid part of the game, Hassan!โ)? Was she making a case for Senegalโs 4-4-2 being way better than Belgiumโs 4-4-3? Or were they talking about whether Lionel Messiโs world cup outings disqualify him from the G.O.A.T. conversation (if youโre Diego Maradona, your answer is probably โsรญโ).
Either way, can we get Rihanna her own sports talk show?
