Rihanna Bans Umbrellas

In a move based on security fears, Rihanna has banned fans from bringing umbrellas to her gigs .

According to the Daily Star's Playlist, fans attending the star's gig on Monday (March 3) had their brollies confiscated by security guards before they got into Scotland's Aberdeen Exhibition Centre for the show.

Security guard Andy McDonald told the newspaper: "We don't normally ask people to leave an umbrella outside. But we were taking precautions over a potential accident.

"We were told that Rihanna's song features dancing with umbrellas onstage. We didn't want the crowd following her actions and someone getting their eye poked out."
