Rihanna at the Rivoli
As discussed here before the Rivoli Ballroom in Crofton Park has seen many famous faces on its stage and dancefloor - White Stripes, Florence and the Machine, Tina Turner, S Club 7, Kylie Minogue, even Brockley Ukelele Group! Now, thanks to Justin Lee Collins' Good Times show on Channel 5 being filmed there, a few more can be added to the roll call. Last week's had Meat Loaf playing darts, the show going out on June 7th has Mary J Blige singing. And pictured here, sitting in the side bar, is none other than Rihanna.
Wow!!!!
ReplyDeleteTranspontine, I don't know what's more surprising - the fact that these amazing stars were at the brilliant Rivoli, or the fact that you had to sit and watch the awful JLC: Good Times just to report this news!
It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it...
