Sure, on Twitter I realize she has a lot of fans, but in real life I have never heard anyone talk about Rihanna how people talk about Britney, GaGa, and Bey.
It's almost like being a pop fan and liking Rihanna is as bad as being a rock fan and liking Nickelback.
I don't like that analogy...I personally have never encountered someone being teased for liking Rihanna or get any sort of hate (on ATRL, yes)
Well if you mean closeted about stanning, I'd say Gaga. She (and her stans) proudly wave their freak flags, so I guess many feel uncomfortable showing their interest in her.
If you mean stans who are actually in the closet about their sexuality, I'd say Britney. I could imagine closeted nerdy gay boys prancing to TTWE for some reason
