What in the world is going on between Law Roach, Rihanna, and Naomi Campbell? According to Roach, absolutely nothing.

On September 15, the image architect denied any bad blood between himself, the musician and Fenty Beauty founder, and the supermodel in a video posted to X, formerly known as Twitter.

“What's so funny to me that in this universe of the internet and social media that y'all live in, y'all always think something has to be something. But something ain't always something," he said. "Sometimes something is just nothing. So stop trying to make nothing into something. Y'all need to get some business. OK, I love, you bye!"

But what, exactly, is the something Law Roach referring to? When Roach posted an Instagram video of him and Naomi Campbell taking on the “very demure” trend with a London Fashion Week spin, some internet users thought it was aimed at Rihanna. “We don’t go to the shows like the other girls," Roach says in the video, while Campbell shakes her head. "We don’t come with our ta-tas out or our chi-chis out. Very demure."

“Very mindful," Campbell responds. “We don’t give too much. It’s not about showing yourself, it’s about showing the clothes.” Some believed this was a direct response to Rihanna's look at the Ala?a show during New York Fashion Week: she wore an off-the-shoulder Ala?a gown that she held to her chest throughout the show.

A video of her arrival began to circulate online in which many believed the singer snubbed Campbell and Roach by not greeting them as she made her way to her seat, but greeting former British Vogue Editor-in-Chief Edward Enninful, who sat beside them. Instagram users weren't thrilled with Roach and Campbell's video, and shared their feelings in the famous stylist's comments.

Though this is all just speculation, some believe an alleged rift might have began when Rihanna began dating billionaire Hassan Jameel in 2017, who Campbell had reportedly dated in the past. However, Campbell did address the rumors in March 2017 during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live, when host Andy Cohen asked her about a potential feud. “I don't have beef, especially with Black women that I think are powerful,” Campbell said. “And out there we're all in the same thing… doing the same struggle.” Rihanna has not publicly responded to Roach's video.
