Rihanna supports – Rihanna sent a text message to Summer House star Ciara Miller encouraging her to keep shining as West Wilson’s relationship with Ciara’s former friend Amanda Batula continues to fuel the show’s drama.
Rihanna didn’t just cheer from the sidelines—she sent a message that landed right on Summer House star Ciara Miller’s red-carpet moment.
At the 2026 Las Culturistas Culture Awards in May. Ciara. 30. was interviewed on the carpet by Bravo’s roving reporter Chanel Ayan. 48. who’s known for The Real Housewives of Dubai. In a video shared by Bravo on Wednesday. June 17. Chanel turned to her phone and read a text message she said she had received from Rihanna.
The “Diamonds” singer, 38, told Ciara to keep pushing through the noise. “Just let her know, stay vibrating in her beautiful frequency,” Chanel read from her phone. Rihanna also framed the moment as a kind of release from people who didn’t deserve access to Ciara’s life. “And give god thanks that he’s relieved her of people who don’t deserve an inch of her now chapter. It’s a reward season, baby girl.”.
Ciara’s reaction was immediate and pure disbelief. “Oh, my god. I’m dead!” she told Chanel after hearing the message. Then, as the conversation continued, she kept going—reading the rest of Rihanna’s words out loud.
“Up and on. Now the petty bitch in me wants to say way more, but we’ll do that when I see her,” Rihanna’s message said.
For Ciara, it hit close to home. “I’m obsessed with her. I listen to her. I mean, I was listening to her before I got ready for this,” she said in the clip.
The timing matters because the support comes as ex West Wilson’s controversial relationship with Ciara’s former BFF, Amanda Batula, has been a major point of tension around the show.
That tension wasn’t just background noise at the awards, either. Ciara picked up the Allison Williams Cool Girl Award at the May 30 ceremony in Los Angeles and later aired on Bravo on Wednesday. In her acceptance speech, she addressed the chaos with sharp humor.
“Thank you so much. If by ‘cool,’ you mean utterly disappointed in everyone around me, yes, I am so f***ing cool,” the former nurse said.
She kept the momentum going, weaving her “revenge is winning” energy into multiple life wins. “Obviously. this year has been a little rough. but you know what they say: the best revenge is winning the Allison Williams Cool Girl Award. And booking Love Island USA. And being in Shaboozey’s music video. And also being a registered nurse. And a model. So I’m gonna put this in the bathroom at my new house.”.
Even before Rihanna’s text, the drama had already pulled Rihanna into the orbit. In April. Mia—Ciara’s friend and a Summer House costar—appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen and said Rihanna had asked her questions during a night out in New York City. Mia, 34, described it as a direct hit. “I love her. I love RiRi. And she loves me. I think she loves Ciara as well,” Mia said at the time. “Rihanna wanted all the tea. As soon as she saw me. she beelined for me. took her glasses off. and said. ‘We need to talk.’ I said. ‘Anything for you.’”.
And earlier in April, Ciara herself opened up about the fallout. In an interview with Glamour published on Friday. April 17. Ciara. 30. said. “I feel like we have so much to talk about. and I can’t wait to catch up with her. ” referring to Amanda. She also spoke about how public the hurt had become: “It’s one thing to experience hurt behind closed doors. To experience it so publicly is like another layer, and then to have to see what you thought was your […]”.
Ciara added that she was hoping to reconnect in a way that feels like her—loud, candid, and a little reckless. She said she wanted to “kiki” and “throw shots back” with Rihanna, Chanel, and Summer House costar Mia Calabrese in the near future.
By the time Rihanna’s message reached her at the Las Culturistas red carpet, the vibe was unmistakable. Ciara wasn’t just taking support—she was turning it into fuel, reacting with joy, then reading the final lines as if they were a promise: the petty comes later, but the shining starts now.

Wait so Rihanna texted her?? That’s wild.
Sounds fake like why would Rihanna be texting Bravo people lol. Also “vibrating in her beautiful frequency” like… ok.
I think people are missing the point, it’s not even about West? Like Amanda drama blah blah but Rihanna saying “don’t deserve an inch” is kinda like she’s calling everyone thirsty. Idk, I don’t watch Summer House like that but I saw clips and Ciara looked shocked like she heard a ghost.
Rihanna always making it about God and vibes but meanwhile West is the one causing it right? Like if West really cared he wouldn’t be in a messy relationship with her friend’s ex bff whatever. I’m confused who Amanda even is in this, but I guess it’s another season of people embarrassing themselves for ratings.
