Rihanna has not been a prominent part of the promotion tour of Ocean's 8. Just like her co-star Helena Bonham Carter, the singer turned actress was only occasionally seen with her castmates Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Sarah Paulson, Mindy Kaling, and Awkwafina. But the duo made an appearance for the London premiere of the all-female heist movie. They were also part of the squad that visited The Graham Norton Show. This is when two things were discovered about the R&B singer.

In the beginning, talk show host Graham Norton jokingly called out Rihanna for picking up wine glasses from various events.

It was an embarrassing moment for the when the presenter shared a series of images of Rihanna leaving parties, clutching glasses and goblets.

Rihanna giggled nervously and said at least one of the items was returned to "the hotel I took it from".

Norton warned fellow guests and the singer's Ocean's 8 castmates to watch out for her real-life "criminal" behaviour. "My mom is gonna see this," she said.

Things didn't end there.

It's a world known fact that Rihanna takes dressing up for the Met Gala very seriously. The singer is not afraid of taking up the challenge and experimenting with the looks. Be it the Rei Kawakubo's surreal pieces, Mason Margiela's dress like Pope's attire for 2018 or Guo Pei's avant-garde wrap dress, Bad Girl RiRi plays the field. 

While fashion experts and enthusiasts are never lost for words to talk about Rihanna's sartorial choices, the meme-makers too are fascinated by her fashion choices. Guo Pei's cape is one of the favourites.

When Rihanna appeared on the red carpet for Met Gala 2015, the Yellow Empress Cape -- that weighs 25 kg with a 16 ft train which took two years to be made with 50,000 hour's worth hand embroidery -- was quickly dubbed as the Omelette dress!

Picking up on that thread, Norton showed a series of memes to the guests and audience that enjoyed the imagination of these meme-makers.
