We’ve all ghosted people before in our lives. You can claim that you haven’t but lets be honest.
It’s happened.
But ghosting Rihanna? Well, we’d like to say that we wouldn’t let that happen, but hey, never say never. It turns out that someone has ghosted Rihanna before – Sophia Bush.
While promoting Good Sam on The Drew Barrymore Show, Drew asked Sophia about meeting Rihanna, “Is it true that you sat next to her at an event and what happened, please tell me the story.”
We love stories of celebrities meeting celebrities, so we were definitely interested in this one.
“Years ago, when I was doing One Tree Hill, my character was becoming a fashion designer, so I was coming to fashion week here and meeting with all these people and learning about what they do for research. And I went to this dinner and Rihanna comes to this dinner and we sit next to each other and she’s like, ‘Your show’s cool,” Sophia told Drew.
We would have died at the moment that Rihanna sat down next to us, but hey, that’s just us. But the story doesn’t end there.
“We’re chatting, she gives me her phone number, which I input in my Blackberry at the time and I never texted her,” Sophia added about the story. “And then that photo you showed, I saw her at an event years later and she was like, ‘How have you been? I never heard from you.’ And I was like oh my god I ghosted Rihanna, what is wrong with me. But I just am like, what am I gonna text her, Hey girl. I don’t know how to talk to her.”
The fact that Rihanna would remember us would have been enough to make us die, but we’re not a celebrity, so we can’t hold our shit together like Sophia can.
And yes Sophia, you text “hey girl” if that’s all you got. It’s Rihanna.
Good Sam airs Wednesdays on CBS.
