International superstar Rihanna was on hand tonight at Arsenal thrashed Everton 5-1 at the Emirates. The Barbadian singer, songwriter and actress with an estimated net worth of $230 million witnessed the first career hat trick of Aaron Ramsey as the Gunners ran up the score by halftime, jumping out to a 4-0 lead well before the break.
Rihanna also got to see Arsenal’s club record signing, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, score in his Arsenal debut.

Although the match was a laugher, which saw the visiting Everton stand substantially empty even before the stroke of halftime, it was still a blockbuster of a match, as the Gunners made the exact kind of statement that they needed to make following their last Premier League outing, a total disaster at Swansea City.
And obviously Rihanna is a blockbuster kind of celebrity. In 2012, Forbes ranked her the fourth most powerful celebrity in the world, and she was also included on the annual Time 100 list of the most influential people in the world that same year.
As you can see from the video and photo above, Rihanna naturally had a really nice seat for the one-sided affair.
