Rihanna Doesn't Accept $10,000 Gifts From Strangers
Rihanna sent back a $10,000 bottle of champagne because she didn’t know the people who had bought it for her.
The ‘Umbrella’ singer was partying at Los Angeles nightclub The Bank at Wonderland when football star Braylon Edwards and his teammates sent the expensive drink over to her table.
However, Rihanna refused to accept the gift because she had no idea who they were. One partygoer said:
"She didn't know who they were, so she sent it back."
Well, not for nothing... but unless the bottle was closed, I wouldn't accept it either! One time when I was younger, a man bought me a drink while I was at a bar and I refused it because I don't drink alcohol. My male friend took it and DOWNED it and thirty minutes later we were all at the hospital pumping his stomach because it was drugged and he was having a bad reaction. I learned a huge lesson that day.

OMG that is an insane story!!! Never accept a drink from someone else unless you watch the bartender make it and it's handed directly to you. And never put your drink down or even look away from it while holding it! Scary stuff can happen. I've heard a lot of stories.

I agree with you completely. I also don't drink so it wouldn't be a problem for me either.

Good for Rihanna. I cant stand when men think a woman cant get her own drink.
Here here sister lol.
And personally, I think it's obscene that anyone would spend so much money on a bottle of champagne. Someone who can justify spending $10,000 on a few drinks needs to get their beehind kicked all the way to Africa ASAP.

I highly doubt that they opened a $10,000 bottle of champagne before it got to her. Like any other expensive wine, its opened table-side.
he probably thought he could buy he could get himself a famous girlfriend by just sending something expensive over. Good for her!
Why wouldn't i be surprised if it was chris brown who sent it to apoligize for the billionth times?

Besides the fact that she sent the bottle back, shes rich enough where if she wanted the champagne that bad, she could get it for herself...

It would be the proper thing to do. I would never accept a expensive gift from someone other than a family member or very close friend.
