Rihanna wasn’t able to vote in the 2024 election, but she wanted fans to head to the polls on her behalf. In an Instagram post on Monday, the singer - who was born in Barbados - joked that she can't vote because she is not a U.S. citizen. "POV: me trying to sneak into the polls with my son's passport #votecauseicant," she captioned a video of herself looking out the window of a car. Some people didn't appreciate her joke about voting illegally; she clapped back at numerous comments. One Instagram user defended "wanting to secure the border" and told Rihanna to "stick to music," arguing that "celebrities shouldn't be posting their political opinions." But the singer shot back with a reference to Donald Trump’s supporters storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in an attempt to stop the certification of President Joe Biden's election win. "Where were you in Jan 6 sis?" Rihanna asked. Another user commented that "illegal voting is a crime" and that the singer should be "arrested for trying," to which she shot back, "Shut up Karen."
