Pop star Rihanna has emerged as an unlikely World Cup jinx for Argentina after attending two final matches, both resulting in 1-0 extra-time losses for the South American nation twelve years apart.
The trend began at the 2014 World Cup final in Brazil, where Germany defeated Argentina 1-0. Rihanna watched from the stands and later made headlines by celebrating with the German team and posing with the trophy.
History repeated itself at the 2026 final, which Rihanna attended alongside A$AP Rocky. Spain clinched a 1-0 victory over Argentina in extra time with a late goal by Ferran Torres. Fans quickly pointed out that the only recent final Argentina won—Qatar in 2022—was the one Rihanna didn't attend, fueling viral internet jokes about her travel plans.
