Super subtle.

Rizal Hakimm is a Malaysian Facebook page with over 1 million followers.

A quick scan of the page shows they mainly share funny or interesting content from across the net.

On October 2, they shared this Facebook post.

Specifically of Rihanna coming to Singapore.

Here's the first picture from that album.

Which is fine enough, but there's a slight alteration to the pictures from the second picture on, see if you can spot it.

The last picture, even though there's no credit, seems to be the same one that we posted on our own Rihanna article.

Which gives us a good chance to compare the two.

Here's the original.

And even pictures available on Rihanna's own Instagram wasn't spared the mosaic treatment.

The Facebook album was shared with the caption.

Rihanna buat surprised turun Singapore mlm tadi sempena produk makeup beliau di Sephora...

Kat Malaysia pun ada Sephora, naper xsinggah jap??? huhu

Which roughly translates to:

Rihanna paid a surprise visit to Singapore the other night in conjunction with her makeup product (launch) at Sephora...Malaysia also has Sephora here, why didn't she stop by for a while? Huhu

A possible point was raised by a Twitter user.

Yikes.

Cover up

Malaysia has a history of making pop stars cover up, including Selena Gomez who dressed more conservatively for her concert in Shah Alam in 2016.

TODAY reported that Malaysia's Islamic political party PAS had earlier tried to block the concert and said that Gomez's "sexy" image is an affront to "Muslims during the month of Syawal."

Previously, concert organisers have spoken out about the difficulties of booking acts in Malaysia.

Rizal Hakimm's move to censor photographs of Rihanna might be to prevent a wandering eye or lustful comments.

"Sedapppp"

Welp.
