Rihanna has really been enjoying the World Cup this year. Over the course of the last couple of weeks, she's sent out lots and lots of tweets about a variety of different teams. For instance, a few days ago, she was all about Brazil:

But she's also shown her support for France:

$$ on France

And Argentina:

Argentina leggooooal

And earlier today, she was all about Germany. She spent time tweeting about both of the games that took place at noon. But quite a few of her tweets were about the Germans:

Yes Germany

And while she did compliment U.S. goalie Tim Howard by retweeting this tweet...

@TheWorIdCup: New photo of Tim Howard: pic.twitter.com/pfr3PqiLhM” He's disrespectfully good!!!

...she was obviously rooting for Germany to beat the U.S. throughout the match. And that didn't sit well with a lot of people who responded to Rih-Rih's pro-German tweets with anti-Rihanna tweets. Here are a few of the ones we've come across this afternoon:

I get @rihanna is a worldwide star but the US MADE her and she can't give us a shout out.. damnnnnn #WorldCup
"@rihanna: Germany come onnn!!!" Tf?.. your US privileges are revoked
Well now I won't even steal her next album. “@rihanna: Germany come onnn!!!”
god what is your problem RT @rihanna: Yes Germany
Go back to your hopeless place. "@rihanna: Germany come onnn!!!”

Truthfully, it doesn't seem like Rihanna is loyal to anyone who's playing in the World Cup this year. She's literally all over the map. But would it kill her to write a couple of nice things about the USMNT?!

We'll have to see if she finally comes around to their side in the knockout stage. We wouldn't count on it, though...
