A$AP During Rihanna’s emotional performance of “Lift Me Up” at the Oscars, Rocky raised a toast to her.

A$AP Rocky has been seen in the audience during Rihanna’s performance at the 95th Academy Awards on Sunday (March 12) in Hollywood, California.

A$AP Rocky found comfort in the event with a proud appreciation of his longtime girlfriend and soon-to-be mother of two as Rihanna finished her soul-stirring live delivery of “Lift Me Up,” the lead single from the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack.

In a video, A$AP Rocky appears to be smiling with satisfaction as the weeping Oscars crowd at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theater responds with a rowdy standing ovation at the end of Rihanna’s poignant tribute to late Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman. 

Wearing an impeccable white tuxedo with black accents, the rapper raises his first in a powerful moment before lifting his glass to salute Rihanna with a loving expression.

Rihanna’s stunning live performance of “Lift Me Up” and Rocky’s touching reaction is the A-list hip-hop couple’s second significant media appearance in a month. 

A$AP Rocky performed during Ri Ri’s masterful performance at Super Bowl LVII. Rocky quickly became a social media sensation, with speculation rife that Rihanna was pregnant due to her appearance on the halftime show with a visibly baby bump.
