According to Rocky, he was being turned away by bouncers alongside his friends, the late Virgil Abloh and Matthew Williams. While the group was arguing with security, Rihanna stepped out of the club.
Rocky said they locked eyes immediately, but admitted he felt embarrassed that she saw him in the middle of a heated exchange with the guards.
When Jimmy Fallon jokingly asked if Rihanna helped him get into the club, Rocky’s response was simple: No.
