Did Rihanna copy Cassie’s signature haircut?
A singer noted for style evolution is being accused today of copying the signature cut of a fellow musician. Rihanna is currently burning up the pages of RollingStone where she dished on her reconciliation with Chris Brown. “I decided it was more important for me to be happy, and I wasn’t going to let anybody’s opinion get in the way of that,” she shared. “Even if it’s a mistake, it’s my mistake. After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I’d rather just live my truth and take the backlash. I can handle it.”
Since then Rih’s been spotted donning the same hairstyle as the one photographed for RollingStone’s cover: a long strawberry blonde weave with the left side of her head shaved.
Interestingly enough, however, another singer is reportedly none too pleased with the look. Singer Cassie took to Instagram Thursday and coyly posted a photo of her rocking the same look years ago. “#TBT Just a night at dinner!,” she captioned the picture.
And although she didn’t call out Rihanna directly, fans quickly took notice of the could-be diss:
“Letting them know who started it. I see you!,” wrote one.
“Rihanna did just the same do! She’s copying you!,” wrote another.
‘Bad Girl Rih Rih’ has yet to reply but could very well have one of her snarky come-backs on the way. Rihanna has worn her hair shaved on several occasions; first in 2009 and back in 2012 while promoting her film “Battleship.”
