Rihanna is chic in a cropped faux fur jacket as she enjoys a late night dinner at her favourite Santa Monica restaurant Giorgio Baldi

Rihanna was back at her favourite Santa Monica restaurant Giorgio Baldi on Sunday night to enjoy a late night dinner.

The singer looked as chic as ever in a cropped faux fur jacket teamed with slim-fit jeans and heels.

She accessorised with a Fendi cow print baguette bag, adding a pop of colour to her look.  

Rihanna was last at the celeb-favourite eatery on Halloween night, and when she’s in town is seen at the family-run Italian spot at least once a week. 

The singer had some good news last week as it was revealed her partner A$AP Rocky has had his trial for allegedly shooting a former friend and plaintiff A$AP Relli postponed.

The trial was scheduled for later this month but it was announced on Tuesday that it will now take place in January so Rocky can perform at a benefit concert in Thailand. 

The troubled rapper (born Rakim Athelaston Mayers) is scheduled to headline Rolling Loud Thailand on November 22 at the theme park Legend Siam Pattaya in Na Chom Thian.

But the Rolling Loud Thailand press release and website mention no association with any charity or non-profit organization for the fest, which costs fans $270-$425 for single-day passes and $650-$1,020 for three-day passes.

‘I’m trying to create [a] Starbucks [with franchise festivals],’ Rolling Loud co-founder Matt Zingler explained to Forbes in 2018.

‘It’s just about scaling, price elasticity, and supply and demand. For us as a festival, our return on investment ranges between 10-50%. There’s a reason we’re growing at the rate we are.’

On January 8, A$AP – who hired attorney Joe Tacopina – pled not guilty to two counts of assault with a semi-automatic firearm stemming from a 2021 shooting of his longtime friend A$AP Relli (born Terell Ephron).

A$AP Rocky’s (R, pictured January 10 with attorney Joe Tacopina) criminal assault jury trial was postponed until January 21 so he could perform at a ‘benefit concert in Bangkok’

Prosecutors obtained video of Rocky – who’s facing up to eight years in prison if convicted – allegedly holding a gun, but there’s no video of Ephron being shot through the hand.

On Tuesday, LA Superior Court Judge Mark Arnold welcomed Rihanna into his court room and agreed to accommodate her in case she wants to attend A$AP’s trial, which is expected to last between seven to 10 days.

Rocky’s delayed fourth studio album Don’t Be Dumb is now reportedly scheduled to drop sometime in November.

Rhianna is next producing and voicing Smurfette in Paramount Animation’s The Smurfs Movie – hitting UK/US theatres February 14, 2025 – along with writing and recording original songs.
