Rihanna Gets Crowned as Queen of West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval

By Jessica Cortez

Rihanna was chosen as both the host and the crowned queen of the annual West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval held at the Greystone Manor Supperclub in West Hollywood, CA last Wednesday night.

Strange for the guest of honor of a Halloween party NOT to be in costume when accepting her award. However, once you see  after the ceremony, you’ll realize why Rihanna didn’t want that many “official” pictures of it:

Rihanna kept things deceptively demure for the awarding ceremony in a black ribbed tank from The Row, a black below-the-knee skirt from Dolce & Gabbana and these mesh and suede paneled ankle boots from Alaia:
