Rihanna in driver drama

Rihanna was forced to take a taxi back to her hotel after a night out in New York on Friday (16Mar12) after her chauffeur reportedly failed to show up.

The pop star enjoyed an evening out at Manhattan nightclub La Pomme, but after the festivities came to an end she walked outside and her driver was nowhere to be seen.

Rihanna was left alone on the street surrounded by snappers and onlookers, so the club's security team stepped in and helped the singer into a taxi, according to New York Post gossip column Page Six.
