I'd say hi to her, and that's it.

I'd leave her alone. She probably just wants to relax.

not this again.

+ yes, I would want to take a picture of an iconic moment

I'd take a pic and say hi and move on. Why are they acting like she is some sort of circus animal? like they need to chill.

I'll take a pic and upload it to Instagram with the caption "Me & my girl @badgirlriri chillin' at the beach" *inserts emoji*

.

i've stay close to her, but like not THAT close and I wouldn't watch her every move, I'd get a beach chair and watch from a distance.

It's not socially acceptable to take a picture of a complete stranger without consent so why is it with a celebrity?

No, I'd just die a little inside and leave her alone I wouldn't want to disturb her.

No, I'd jump in there with her

I'd probably take a pic but - at the same time - I feel like that'd be quite selfish. I'd still do it though, even if it meant feeling bad. It's just too great a moment to NOT take a picture of.

No I'd leave her be.

I'm surprised at the amount of people that recognised her in this pic.

I definitely wouldn't be standing that close. I can't lie and say I wouldn't spy on her tho.

I'd say "hi Rihanna", maybe ask for a picture,say thanks and leave. It's rude and ridiculous if you're standing 5 feet away and taking pictures like some stalker.

I'd ignore her (ok, maybe glance once or twice and exchange a comment with a friend, I ain't a saint), being greeted by strangers is not cool, especially when they try to act like your best friends. Taking a photo is a new level of ****. There's a reason M&Gs exist.
This. These people act like they were raised in the jungle.
If you really have to take the photo (your life depends on it or whatever), do it discreetly. Standing there with those phones so blatantly out, this is rude, disgusting and embarrassing af. This girl was just trying to enjoy herself in a close proximity to her own house ffs.

It actually is in public areas. It's why paparazzi & street photographers can do what they do.

EDIT:
Wait, I just saw "socially."

Your 1st photo was far worse
