Rihanna appeared on Saturday Night Live last weekend as a the show's musical guest, performing "Russian Roulette" and "Hard" from her recently released album, Rated R.
The singer also showed some comedic chops, co-starring with Andy Samberg in a digital short, "Shy Ronnie." In the skit, Rihanna attempts a duet with Samberg's character, but he's too shy to join in.
"Shoulda just paid Kanye, bye Shy Ronnie," Rihanna sings as she exits the scene. Once Rihanna is out of the room, Shy Ronnie breaks into a rap.
Gossip Girl's Blake Lively hosted the episode. In the night's most memorable skit, Lively played Tiger Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, while Kenan Thompson parodied the famed golfer. The two appeared in a fake press conference making fun of their marital woes.
