You've got to give it to Rihanna, the singer knows how to give us fans what we want. From insane music videos and award show performances, to her epic clap backs on Twitter, and her iconic candid moments that make for hilarious memes. Remember the time she saved her wine glass from spilling as she fell off a pool float, or when she took on a metal grate in Paris while wearing stiletto heels like she was Wonder Woman or some other super being not of this planet? Well, she's done it again — Rihanna was recently spotted hiding her rumored boyfriend under her umbrella. You know, as in, "you can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh."

According to TMZ, photogs caught RiRi leaving Chiltern Firehouse, a restaurant and celeb hot spot in London on Wednesday, Aug. 16. She was reportedly there with rumored new boyfriend Hassan Jameel, but apparently he didn't want to be seen by cameras, so Rihanna took her own advice and shielded him from cameras with her umbrella. (Bustle reached out to Rihanna's rep for comment, but did not receive a response at the time of publication.)

If you look closely at the photo on the right you see that Jameel is smiling, so I imagine he and Rihanna were also amused by their umbrella paparazzi shield.

Crazy to think that Rihanna released "Umbrella" over ten years ago, back in 2007. We've all been singing "umbrella, ella, ella, eh" for a full decade now. And Rihanna's career has shown no signs of slowing down, so we can undoubtedly count on her for more great hit songs and iconic meme-able moments for many years to come.
