A Paris fashion-week feud went viral Monday after EJ Johnson — the 34-year-old 'Rich Kids of Beverly Hills' alum and son of Magic Johnson — posted a vlog recap claiming Dior's Spring/Summer 2027 show started an hour late 'because Rihanna was late,' adding that 'we didn't care to wait for her.'
Rihanna had sat front row at Jonathan Anderson's Dior show on September 29 alongside Jennifer Lawrence, Rosalía and Cynthia Erivo, wearing a black spaghetti-strap dress and an oversized jacket. After Johnson's recap made the rounds, a separate clip circulated of him being stopped by hotel security while entering his Paris hotel as paparazzi crowded the entrance — and Rihanna commented a single word beneath it: 'Damn.'
Fans read the comment as a dry clapback, though neither side has confirmed the interpretation. The exchange landed one day after Harper's Bazaar reported that Rihanna had also been an hour late to the Matières Fécales Spring 2027 show, making her punctuality the week's favorite fashion-week subplot.
