It's a bit startling to think that we haven't seen a live performance of the DJ Khaled-produced smash, "Wild Thoughts," featuring Rihanna and Bryson Tiller until the 2018 Grammy Awards, but it looks like it was absolutely worth it. In fact, the debut performance of the all-star hit arrived on Sunday night (January 28) during the annual ceremony and saw the pop titan channel one of the most beloved emojis around.
During the number, Rih, Khaled, and Bryson appeared on the New York City stage with a number of wild-looking dancers, but it was Rihanna's own outfit that caught the attention of all. Rocking a red-hot dress, the pop titan worked the stage with some simple choreography as Khaled played the hype man on top of a platform. Everyone's favorite hip-hop producer, as well as Bryson, were dressed to impress but Rihanna (and her stank face) proved to be the real highlight of the three-minute number. See clips of the performance below!
Rihanna Navy was treated to an early sighting from the pop titan just minutes into the broadcast when she appeared on stage with Kendrick Lamar for their win for "LOYALTY" during the Best Rap/Sung Performance. "Thank you, Kendrick, for giving me this incredible opportunity to be on such a great record," she told K. Dot during the speech.
