Rihanna returned to a courtroom in Los Angeles to support A$AP Rocky on the fourth day of his gun assault trial.

Riri may have sat in the same seat inside the gallery with Rocky's family as the proceedings continued on Thursday, January 30, but she reportedly switched her style up a bit. According to TMZ, she ditched her all-black look and wore a button-up white top with a slim black tie and black pants. She let her hair down, rocked a pair of gold hoop earrings, and didn't wear a mask like yesterday. Sources told the outlet Rihanna is more relaxed today but still means business.

Sources told the outlet Rihanna kept a stone-cold face throughout the hearing. She barely cracked a smile even after others around her chuckled at a joke during the hearing. Although it's a smaller audience than before, photographers have yet to successfully snap a photo of her.

Jose Tacopina, Rocky's lawyer, previously gave the court a heads-up that Rihanna might pop up at the trial this week. The singer arrived to the courthouse yesterday and managed to dodge the media circus in front of the courthouse. She was already seated with Rocky's mom and sister before reporters were allowed inside. Afterward, she left out the back door while Rocky exited through the front. They ultimately left the premises together.

A$AP Rocky is on trial for two felony charges of assault with a semiautomatic weapon. His former friend A$AP Relli, born Terell Ephron, claims Rocky shot at him during an argument in 2021. Ephron said a bullet grazed his left hand above his knuckles. The rapper, born Rakim Mayers, denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty to the charges. Tacopina argued Rocky was carrying a prop gun that couldn't fire real bullets and accused Ephron of trying to extort his client.

The face of the A$AP Mob was offered a plea deal, but he turned it down claiming it would've ruined his career. If convicted, A$AP Rocky faces up to 24 years in prison.
