There were fears that the very recent death of her grandmother would cause Rihanna to pull out of her headlining gig at the Wireless Festival today.
But the singer managed to plaster a smile on her face and dazzle the crowds at the Hyde Park event on Sunday night, after flying in shortly after attending the funeral in New York.
The singer, 24, closed her second festival in as many weeks, and didn't disappoint the waiting fans.
Appearing onstage in a midriff-baring studded top, lacy 'granny pants' over stockings and peacock-patterned billowing sleeves, the singer gyrated and belted out all of her hits.
She added a black leather cap with a python embellishment and chunky black boots.
Rihanna's hair tumbled in curls down to her waist, after she added lengthy extensions.
Rihanna was pictured leaving her London hotel a few hours earlier and was embraced by fans.
She had flown in the day before, shortly after attending her grandmother Dolly's funeral in Brooklyn.
On Friday, the singer was pictured heading to the service in Brooklyn looking visibly upset.
On July 1 she revealed via Twitter that her beloved grandmother had died of cancer at a New York City hospital.
Rihanna had been keeping her Twitter followers up to date with her emotions during the trying time, uploading a number of sweet pictures of her with her ailing relative.
But ever the professional, she was back on form at Wireless on Sunday, and thrilled her adoring fans.
Duet now!
