Rihanna banned fans from bringing what items to her U.K. concerts in 2008?
In 2008, Rihanna banned fans from bringing umbrellas to her U.K. concerts due to safety concerns.
This was a play on her hit single "Umbrella" which had become very popular at the time.
The ban was put in place to prevent fans from getting injured or causing a disruption by opening umbrellas in the middle of the concert.
Despite the ban, many fans still brought umbrellas to the shows as a show of support for the singer.
