Do you ever get told that you look like a celebrity? It happens to most of us. At some point in our lives, someone tells us, “You know, you kind of look like so and so.” Sometimes we’re flattered, and other times we’re appalled. The point being, it’s not rare to get told you kind of sort of look like a celebrity. But have you ever had a celebrity think you look like them? That’s not all that common, but it happened to Priscila Beatrice, who looks a whole lot like the one and only Rihanna.

See, what had happened was, Priscila Beatrice posted a video of herself recreating a Rihanna hair and makeup look that left her looking like the spitting image of the Barbadian singer. The video was reposted by The Shade Room on Instagram and caught the eye of RiRi herself, who left a very funny comment. Can you imagine how stoked Priscila must have been? Rihanna isn’t the only one who sees the resemblance. Priscila has 3 million followers on TikTok who see it as well. See for yourself just how much Pri resembles Rih!
The video that caught Rihanna’s eye.
On August 14, 2020, Priscila Beatrice posted a video of herself standing with her back to the camera in front of a picture of Rihanna at the British Fashion Awards in 2019. When she turns to face the camera, she looks just like RiRi, braids and all.
The Shade Room reposted the video, and Rihanna saw it.
Not only did Rihanna see the video, she left a comment on the post: “where the album sis?” Apparently, she’s asking her look-alike because everyone wants to know when Rihanna is going to finally release her ninth album.
Priscila flipped when Rihanna left a comment.
“Do you know what I'm feeling right now??? I can't stop crying with emotion!!!! Of happiness!!!!! It is a dream!!! God is so wonderful !!!!!” Priscila wrote on Instagram. It’s kind of a big freakin’ deal to have the celebrity that you look like basically agree that you look like them.
Priscila also recreated RiRi’s 2014 CFDA fashion awards look.
In 2014, Rihanna was awarded the Fashion Icon Award by the Council of Fashion Designers of America. In true fashion icon mode, Rihanna wore a dazzling silver headscarf covered in Swarovski crystals and a matching sheer dress.
Here’s Priscila’s homage to the 2014 look.
Tell me she doesn’t look like Rihanna and Imma tell you to go get your eyes checked, because YES, SHE DOES! The clothes aren’t exactly the same because Priscila has to work with what’s available to her, but she did a great job.
Here's another makeup RiRi-creation.
The funny thing is that you or I could try to do this recreation using makeup, but we won't look anything like Rihanna. The truth is that even without makeup, Priscila looks like the superstar. Even their eyes resemble each other.
Remember when Rihanna rocked an angled bob and bangs?
Priscila does and so she did her version of the look. The hairstyle looks stunning on both Rihanna and her doppelganger. But honestly, what hairstyle wouldn't look good on these stunning women?
And just for comparison's sake.
Rihanna doesn't often wear her hair like this, but when she does, it looks great on her. This picture is from the 2007 MTV Movie Awards. That's over a decade ago! How is that even possible?
Priscila is becoming a celebrity herself.
Priscila is not just posting videos of herself looking like a celebrity, she is also booking gigs. "Today I have the honor of being a reporter invited by @portalpopline to show the best moments of @micaretasdasanoficial … it will soon be on the portal! It's EVERYTHING," she wrote when she shared a behind-the-scenes post on June 16, 2022.
