The Grammy winner, 29, stole the show thanks to her eye-popping cleavage and intricate breast tattoo in her perilously plunging metallic neckline.
Busty Rihanna was every inch the dazzling diva as she accessorised with statement golden hoop earrings and necklace to inject further sparkle to her enchanting look.
The lyrical siren scraped her raven locks from her face to showcase her beautiful facial features and she added a pop of colour with her vibrant purple eye shadow.
Loyalty hitmaker Rihanna added to her impressive statuesque height 5′ 8″ in sky-scraper stilettos, which were fastened to her feet with a glistening golden strap.
Meanwhile, the Saudi heir left the party scene in his slim-fit grey jumper and a pair of navy chinos to complete his sharp look.
The businessman slipped out of the club earlier than his girlfriend on Sunday evening who later was hot on his heels in her towering stilettos.
The lovebirds recently enjoyed a romantic getaway to Paris where they enjoyed a winter break ahead of the Grammy Awards.
The pair went public with their romantic feelings when pictures of the couple kissing in Spain emerged in late June 2017, just seven months ago.
'They’ve been spending a lot of time together away from prying eyes and are really serious. They’re really enjoying each others’ company.'
As the son to auto mogul Abdul Latif Jameel with a reported worth of $1.5billion dollars, Hassan is one of the most wealthiest men in the world.
The songstress nearly suffered a wardrobe malfunction as she performed African-inspired dance moves alongside DJ Khaled and Bryson Tiller.
Social media was awash with hilarious memes that gave a nod to Rihanna's intense performance at Madison Square Garden.
Her gorgeous pink dress featured sparkling rhinestones and a flirty fringed hem to draw attention to her long legs.
The strappy ensemble nearly revealed her ample assets as she danced the South African Gwara gwara dance before she broke into the Azonto from Ghana.
She styled her long chocolate brown hair in loose curls with a perfectly positioned pink flower in her hair.
Singing fans immediately took to Twitter to create comical memes after she put on her intense routine.
'These be South African dance moves,' one user wrote with a host of electric emojis following his caption, leading the troops.
Another fan added: 'When your auntie tells you that you don't know nothing about that dance,' under an image of Rihanna dancing.
Another user precariously placed the letters SH and K on either side of Rihanna's chest to mimic the word 'shook.'
Rihanna accepted a Grammy for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration with Kendrick Lamar.
Skipping a fancy gown, the We Found Love singer dressed in a gleaming brown trench coat, worn tantalizingly loose to reveal her braless figure.
Winning for their record LOYALTY, Rihanna and Kendrick heaped praise on each other during their speeches.
Compton-born Kendrick spoke first, and made sure to put aside a thank you to the 'fans out there' of his work.
As he wrapped up, he turned to his collaborator, who was standing behind him and said: 'Hey, Rihanna, what's up, man?'
'Hey!' said Rihanna with a smile.
Kendrick turned back to the audience and said of Rihanna: 'She came through and gassed me on that record, gassed me on my own song and whatnot, man.'
Holding up his trophy, the 30-year-old rapper proclaimed: 'This record - this really belongs to her, real talk, so yeah.'
Rihanna took the mic and said: 'Thank you, Kendrick, for giving me this incredible opportunity for being on such a great record.'
She continued: 'I love this record and I’m honored to do this with you. Congrats. You’ve earned this, man.'
The Barbadian beauty wore a a Le Vian ombre chocolate diamond necklace and cognac quartz earrings, complementing the coat with matching boots.
Meanwhile, Kendrick - who had the second most nominations of any artist that evening, bested only by Jay Z - wore a black coat over a black shirt and pants.
In his lapel, he wore a white rose, indicating his sympathy for the Time's Up movement against sexual misconduct in the entertainment industry.
After nabbing their trophies, Rihanna changed into a shimmering gold crop top tied above her slender waistline.
She covered her legs with a flowing black sheer skirt as delicate streams of gold wrapped around her legs.
Kendrick opened up the Grammy's with a bravura performance of his number XXX, and Rihanna was scheduled to perform later in the program.
They were presented with their prize by the duo of 39-year-old John Legend and 91-year-old Tony Bennett, who got in a bit of singing themselves.
As they introduced the award they were giving out, they broke into an a cappella rendition of Theme From New York, New York by John Kander and Fred Ebb.
That song was originally written for the eponymous 1977 Martin Scorcese movie, in which it was sung by Liza Minnelli.
The most famous version, however, was sung a view years later by Frank Sinatra, a crooner who like Tony is associated with big band standards.
