Rihanna has reportedly banned fans from bringing umbrellas to her concerts over fears that someone could be injured.

Umbrellas have become a key accessory at Rihanna concerts ever since the R&B star released the phenomenally successful single ‘Umbrella’ last year.

However, fans in Aberdeen on Monday (March 3rd) were told to leave their brollies out in the rain by security guards.

“We don’t normally ask people to leave an umbrella outside but we were taking precautions over a potential accident,” a spokesperson told the Star.

“We were told that Rihanna’s song features dancing with umbrellas on stage. We didn’t want the crowd following her actions and someone getting their eye poked out.”

Isn’t it bad luck to open an umbrella inside anyway?
