Pop singer Rihanna showed up to support her children’s father A$AP Rocky at his criminal trial in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Rihanna apparently avoided the media circus by sneaking into the courthouse through a private entrance. She joined her man inside and Rocky was all smiles as they entered the courtroom together.

Rocky’s mom Renee Black and his sister Erika Mayers also attended the trial in style. Renee made headlines last week when the judge flirted with her and said she was “very beautiful.” He added “And that’s on the record.”

RiRi apparently decided to support Rocky in court after the frustrated rapper was seen shoving paparazzi outside the courthouse last week.

One photographer was overheard asking Rocky, “What’s up, felon?”

Rocky’s lawyer Joe Tacopina hopes Rihanna’s presence in the courtroom will sway the jury to acquit her man.

Rocky is accused of firing a 9mm handgun at fellow rapper A$AP Relli during a street fight outside a Hollywood hotel in 2021.

Surveillance video shows Rocky pointing a gun at Relli and firing twice. Relli says a bullet grazed his knuckle.

Tacopina admitted his client was at the scene and that he fired a gun twice. However, he said Rocky’s gun was a “prop gun” that the rapper carried for security reasons.

A$AP Relli is pictured leaving court after testifying against Rocky on Tuesday.

He turned over 2 shell casings to police after the shooting. Ballistics tests determined the shells were likely fired from a loaded 9mm handgun found during a search of Rocky’s Los Angeles home.

Tacopina complained that the prosecutor’s office withheld the ballistics evidence from the defense.

Tacopina asked the judge to delay the trial until his team could review the evidence. “There’s no way we can proceed with this case,” the lawyer said.

However, L.A. County Superior Court Judge Mark S. Arnold refused to delay the trial. Judge Arnold offered to take Monday off while the defense seeks their own ballistics expert to analyze the shell casings.

The state is expected to rest its case in two weeks.
