But Rihanna has seemingly copied her ex-Chris Brown's girlfriend Karreuche Tran by going as a Latina gangster for a Halloween party in her native Barbados.
After the 25-year-old model rocked the look two days ago, the Diamonds singer was seen dressed in the same costume on Thursday night.

for Halloween just two days after her ex-Chris Brown's girlfriend
Karreuche Tran did
She described herself as a 'chola', an offensive slur which refers to a Mexican-American subculture with roots in the pachuco and zoot-suit traditions in California.
The style has been associated with street gangs, but not all youths who adopt the look have gang affiliations.
Rihanna took her look a little bit further that Karrueche, however, by wearing black and white zombie make-up.
She also painted on a neck tattoo and a teardrop design underneath her eye.

suspicious-looking hand rolled cigarette
The teardrop tattoo is often connected to prison, and in the United States can mean that the wearer has killed someone.

Trendsetter Rihanna's costume choice is particularly odd after Karreuche spored the same look before her earlier in the week.
She also posted a slew of pictures on her Instagram in the costume, the very same day that her on/off boyfriend Chris Brown was arrested for assault yet again.
Karreuche shared the snap with more than 800,000 followers, telling her fans she had decided to dress up as a 'chola'.
