Rihanna took a moment on stage at the Aviva last night to shed a tear. The singer broke down during 'Love the Way You Lie'. It only lasted a few bars, but a tear ran down her cheek as she continued singing - Sinead O'Connor style.
Everyone's wondering what moved RiRi to tears. The rumour mill suggests it could be her "difficult" on-off relationship with Drake. The singer thanked her fans on Instagram afterwards saying it was "such an emotional show" for her.
But for the most part, Rihanna had the craic on stage. She flew through the set list, mashing up tunes like How Deep is Your Love and We Found Love. Some of the biggest fan reaction was to a (Kanye-less) Four Five Seconds. Afterwards, she posed backstage with Conor McGregor.
Later in the gig Riri paid tribute on stage to the Irish audience "I only have ever in my life heard an audience of people scream so loud that they sound like one voice and that only happens in Ireland, in Dublin. Thank you so much."
Met @thenotoriousmma #ConorMcGregor backstage last night! So much heart! Thanks for your kind words!

Neither The Notorius nor Rihanna seem like the type to get star struck, but the Crumlin fighter said it was "an honour to see the pound for pound number 1 female in the game perform tonight!!"
