Global icon and recently proclaimed billionaire Rihanna has, in recent years, shifted her sights from the domination of the pop music industry to create a famously inclusive and on-trend lingerie brand.
Her first two Savage X Fenty catwalk shows were streamed on Amazon Prime, in 2019 and 2020 respectively, to widespread acclaim. Being the multi-industrious star that she is, Rihanna created not merely a show to model her lingerie line, but a television special including a host of musical performances, behind the scene exclusives, and a ton of celebrity cameos.
Now, the singer-turned-businesswoman has announced the third installment of her fashion show in a teaser trailer posted to her social media platforms. Premiering on Amazon Prime on September 24, Savage X Fenty Vol. 3 promises to be the most daring one yet, having already gathered masses of excitement on the internet with its all-star lineup.
Among the colorful and extravagant-looking visuals of the show, its featured models and musical guests were also announced in the new trailer. Alongside staples of the modeling scene Emily Ratjakowski and Adriana Lima, Gigi Hadid is also set to don Savage x Fenty on the catwalk. And the show's performer lineup includes Normani and Sabrina Carpenter, who will make her debut appearance on the television special.
Fans of Carpenter are especially excited to see the "Skin" songstress performing on the show. One Twitter user gushed, "i'm so happy and excited for sabrina, we all know how much she loves and admires rihanna", while another anticipated that the star might link up with Normani and Gigi Hadid behind the scenes.
Standing front-and-center of the Savage X Fenty Vol. 3 trailer were RuPaul's Drag Race stars Symone and Gottmik, suggesting that this year's show will continue its trend of promoting diversity and representation in fashion, alongside its vibrant visuals and jaw-dropping choreography.
However, some Twitter users were left disappointed when there was no mention of Nicki Minaj in the new trailer. After the "Super Bass" rapper and Rihanna were spotted hanging out together recently, fans thought they might have been planning a cameo from Minaj in the annual runway special.
One user wrote, "Why was Nicki with Rihanna if she ain't at the Fenty show? What is this b**** doing all year?" While others wwere hopeful that the star might still make a surprise appearance.
