I missed this year’s American Music Awards but thanks to my Instagram feed, I was able to catch the highlights. Of course, Rihanna stole the show. The Empress (as the Navy calls her) won the first-ever Icon Award with a classic cat eye, glowing skin, nude talons…and a smooth doobie. Yes, you read that right: a sleek wrap with bedazzled bobby pins was the look Rihanna chose to accept the special merit award at the American Music Awards.
