Paparazzi photograph Sabrina Carpenter on her coffee run or Hailey Bieber heading to pilates, but it's not every day you see a billionaire doing the run-of-the-mill chores.
Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk are definitely not walking into Walmart, so it's only fair that the internet is losing its mind after a video of Rihanna has gone viral.

The musician and beauty brand owner was seen shopping in a local grocery store, acting totally casual, almost like she does this every day.
For all we know, Riri might regularly do her own shopping, but this video wouldn't have been such a big deal if that were the case, so this seems to have been an exception.

The video shows the star, in typical Rihanna style, in a fashionable all-black outfit, looking chic as she picks up some veggies.
While this could have just been another video of a famous person doing a "normal person" activity, the video is made 100 times funnier by one of the other shoppers sharing a slightly embarrassing moment with Rihanna.

Rihanna might be trying to live her "normal" life, but don't be fooled
She wasn't completely on her own as a bodyguard followed closely by her side and her private chef was also accompanying her on the shopping trip.
