The singer just keeps us wanting more.
Rihanna lifted us up with a show-stopping performance at the 2023 Oscars!
The singer, 35, hit the stage at the 95th Academy Awards held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, Calif. March 12, where she sang her Oscar-nominated hit, "Lift Me Up," from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
The "Umbrella" singer left everyone in awe as she belted out the poignant anthem to the crowd, which included A-listers such as Jamie Lee Curtis, Steven Spielberg and Angela Bassett.
Rihanna donned a lace all-black jumpsuit that incorporated crystals hanging from her bodice. She accessorized her look with a large sparkly necklace adorned with diamonds and matching dangling earrings along with black leather gloves that reached her elbows.
As for her glam, she wore her hair down and slightly slicked back in the front. She added a pop of color to her look with bold red lipstick that shined on stage during her performance.
With Rihanna not releasing an album since 2016's Anti, she still manages to deliver iconic performances for her fans, including her headlining performance at the 57th Super Bowl halftime show that took place in Glendale, Arizona earlier this year.
Although her performance was everything fans wanted and more, Rihanna's exceptional talent wasn't what made headlines that night.
The singer subtly let the world know she was pregnant during the show, as she caressed her pregnant belly in front of cameras. And now, she's managing to wow fans yet again, as she performed pregnant on the Oscars stage.
According to Variety, Catherine Zeta-Jones is the only other name to perform a musical number at the prestigious award show while pregnant. Back in 2003, the actress, now 53, performed "I Move On" from the hit musical movie, Chicago with Queen Latifah. She was eight months pregnant at the time.
Rihanna was up for an award at the Academy Awards, as she was nominated for Best Original Song alongside collaborators Ryan Coogler and Ludwig Göransson.
