Rihanna was left massively cringing at one of her 'weird' and forgotten sex scenes from a 2017 show.

By now, most of us are aware that the singer, 36, is no stranger to the big screen, starring in the likes of Battleship and Ocean's 8 over the years.

However, her brief appearance in a horror series seven years ago may have gone under the radar by some of her fans.

Rihanna featured in psychological horror series Bates Motel - based on Alfred Hitchcock's iconic 1960 film Psycho - back in 2017.

The show followed the twisted relationship between Norman Bates (Freddie Highmore) and his mother, Norma Bates (Vera Farmiga), leading up to the events of the original movie.

In the fifth and final season in 2017, Rihanna made a guest appearance as Marion Crane, the role Janet Leigh made famous in Psycho.

As well as reinterpreting Marion's shower scene, the character also has an affair with the married Sam Loomis.

While the pair booked out a room at the Bates Motel, the creepy Norman Bates watches them have sex through a peephole.

After the episode dropped on TV, RiRi took to Instagram live to share her reaction to watching herself on-screen - and it was almost more entertaining than the show itself.

She appeared to be massively embarrassed by the scene and decided to throw in a drinking game with her mates to numb the awkwardness - to drink everytime someone says 'Norman'.

"This is so weird, oh my god, I can't," Rihanna said. "I can't, I can't hear my voice. It's, like, gross!"

Well, it's safe to say that fans throughly enjoyed her performance, with one person commenting: "I thought Rihanna did a good job actually, and I've never seen her act before.

"She made her character mysterious and alluring. I'm also a big fan of Bates Motel and was skeptical of her performance.

"I love how they gave her Marion Crane character a reimagined plot for the series."

Another added: "I think Rihanna was great as Marion Crane. That may be an unpopular opinion, but I LOVED her arc and the difference from Psycho.

"The fact that she was a huge Bates Motel and Hitchcock fan makes it better too."

A third person also agreed: "It was a surprise and it worked. Also glad they didn’t try to recreate the classic, put their own spin on it and that was smart."
