Rihanna was a no-show for her final rehearsal for "Saturday Night Live" last night , which did not sit well with the show's producers, including head man Lorne Michaels. Rihanna reportedly called in sick for the dress rehearsal, which is done live in front of a studio audience right before the actual show. Michaels takes dress rehearsals very seriously and was quite upset when Rihanna bailed at the last minute.
Conclusion: In her place, Rihanna's choreographer danced to her songs. When Rihanna appeared later looking just fine, the staff was shocked and felt she didn't seem sick enough to have missed the dress rehearsal though no one from the show called her on it.
Once the live show got going, Rihanna was seen eating an apple and walking around in between songs which bothered several staffers because she did not seem ill at all.
Producers can't even remember the last time someone has skipped the dress rehearsal.
Sources close to Rihanna tell TMZ she went through every rehearsal except the dress rehearsal (which she was in the building for) because she just felt too ill to do it. Rihanna had a doctor come to her dressing room before the show and administer a shot of penicillin before she went on.
A rep for Rihanna reveals: "Rihanna was sick and needed to save her voice for the live show."
What do you think?
Was Rihanna really sick or simply bored?
