Rihanna made sure all eyes were on her as she sported a statement coat for a night out in Los Angeles on Wednesday. 

The Diamonds hitmaker, 36, put on a stylish display in a long brown leather snakeskin jacket which she wore over a pair of oversized faded grey jeans. 

The popstar was heading to Nobu to enjoy a night out celebrating her cousin’s birthday as she let her hair down amid her boyfriend A$AP Rocky’s ᴀssault trial.

Rocky, father of Rihanna’s two children, faces two felony charges of ᴀssault with a firearm for allegedly shooting a friend in 2021.

He has pleaded not guilty.

Last Friday Rihanna made a surprise appearance in court to stand by her boyfriend as he faces up to 24 years in prison.

Rocky, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, faces prison time for allegedly shooting his former friend A$AP Relli in 2021, and is charged with two counts of ᴀssault with a semiautomatic weapon. 

A source told the US Sun: ‘Rihanna arrived around 9:49 a.m. in a blacked-out SUV and met with two security guards who tried to throw everyone off and went down a side pᴀssageway out of the court. 

‘They jumped in her car in the underground parking lot, and she snuck into the court in a secret elevator and never walked the main corridor.’ 

Rihanna, wearing an all-black ensemble with a turtleneck and trench coat, reportedly sat beside Mayers’ mother and sister in the front row of the courtroom, with several security guards sat around them. 

The singer has stuck beside the rapper since his first arrest on gun charges in April 2022, when the pair were returning to Los Angeles Airport from a Barbados vacation. 

Prosecutors allege that on November 6, 2021, Mayers pointed a gun at his former friend during a confrontation, shooting at him and leaving him with minor injuries. 

A$AP Relli, real name Terell Ephron, testified against Mayers at an earlier hearing, claiming that the rapper held a gun to his stomach and said ‘I’ll kill you right now’ before firing at least four sH๏τs. 

It is alleged that one of the sH๏τs hit Ephron’s hand, but he only reported the shooting the following day when a warrant was issued for Mayers’ arrest.

Two 9mm shell casings were recovered by Ephron after he returned to the scene of the alleged shooting, however police say the weapon Mayers allegedly fired has never been found. 

Earlier this month, Mayers ‘respectfully declined’ a plea deal that would have seen him serve just six months in jail alongside a seven-year suspended sentence and three years of probation.  

Ephron was a former friend and collaborator of Mayers, after the pair became friends as teenagers while attending high school in New York together. 

They were members of the A$AP collective, a group of students who made music and created art together. The A$AP (Always Strive And Prosper) Mob was formed in 2005, but Rocky only joined in 2007. 

Ephron said their friendship continued as Mayers’ fame grew, but began to falter when he started backing out of business ventures. 

At pre-trial hearings in November, Mayers’ attorneys attempted to spare him a court trial as they argued that surveillance video of the rapper holding a gun should not be permissible as evidence. 

Prosecutors claim the video showed Mayers firing the weapon, which the rapper’s attorneys denied. 

Detective Frank Flores of the Los Angeles Police Department testified at an earlier hearing that footage showed a gun in the rapper’s hand, but when pressed by the defense he conceded a weapon was never recovered.

Meanwhile, Erika Jayne’s son, LAPD officer Thomas ‘Tommy’ Zizzo, testified in Los Angeles last week in the gun trial of rapper A$AP Rocky.

Zizzo, 32, who is the son of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star and her first husband Thomas Zizzo Sr., was the first witness called in the highly publicized case.

Zizzo, one of the officers who responded to the alleged shooting, testified about his observations upon arriving at the scene, according to the outlet.

This marks his first major public appearance, as he has never appeared on RHOBH and was only briefly featured in a 2020 post on Erika’s social media.

Shortly after Zizzo’s birth, Erika divorced her first husband and later married ex-lawyer Tom Girardi, though they separated in 2020.

Zizzo’s appearance in court comes after A$AP Rocky broke his silence at the end of the first week of his trial. 

As the rapper strode to a waiting SUV to whisk him away, when asked if he had a message for his supporters Rocky confidently responded: ‘I love you’, before shutting the door behind him.
