‘Bates Motel’ Season 5 Episode 5: Rihanna Cringes Over Bed Scene With Austin Nichols

Rihanna has a priceless reaction to her steamy scene with actor Austin Nichols in "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5. The singer watched her bed scene and she clearly did not like what she saw.

Rihanna made her debut in "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5 with a bed scene with Nichols, who plays as her on-screen boyfriend Sam Loomis. The episode already aired which gave the singer plenty of time to re-watch her scenes. Her scene with Nichols particularly affected her as seen in her reaction video below.

In the video, Rihanna can be heard saying, "This is so weird" and "gross." Apparently, she feels awkward watching herself on TV making out with another person. She keeps covering her mouth and eyes in embarrassment. The Barbados native could not even keep her eyes glued to the screen. Instead, she looks around the room, at her friends watching with her and at the ceiling, anything but her bed scene with Nichols in "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5.

Eventually, Rihanna could no longer contain the awkwardness from watching her bed scene in "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5, so decided to make light of the situation. She started a drinking game instead. She agreed to drink a shot of tequila each time her friends mention the word "Sam."

Rihanna plays Marion Crane, the iconic role made famous by Janet Leigh in Alfred Hitchcock's cult classic movie "Pyscho." She only appears in two episodes of the series, according to Metro UK, with "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5 as her first.

One of Marion's famous scenes in "Psycho" was the murder scene in the shower. It remains unclear if Rihanna re-enacts this in her next appearance in the show after "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5. Executive producer Kerry Ehrin refused to confirm when asked in an interview with USA Today.

Regardless, she may have hinted at this possibility when she jokingly pretended not to know about Marion's shower scene. Instead, Ehrin assured that viewers will enjoy Rihanna's version of the character. Fans may have already applauded the singer for being daring after they watched her bed scene with Nichols in "Bates Motel" Season 5 Episode 5.
