Rihanna Bails on Charity Event
Rihanna was supposed to pick up a $500,000.00 pay check for an hour long performance at a charity event in Florida but she bailed at the last minute to stay in LA for All Star Weekend...
Rihanna agreed to perform at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute fund-raising gala on Saturday evening in Palm Beach, FL where the best seats in the house sold for $200,000.00 and you couldn't even get a seat for less than $2,000.00.
A private jet was supposed to pick Rihanna up Saturday morning and have her back in LA in time for her half time show at the NBA All Star Game Sunday night.
Hours before she was to board her jet Rihanna's people called event organizers and told them RiRi's doctor had forbidden her from flying because of acute bronchitis and that she wouldn't be able to make the sold out event.
Luckily Jennifer Hudson agreed to fill the spot and the gala went on as planned.
