"But after RiRi released her album "Loud" in 2010, the attention I started to receive for looking like her was undeniable. People began approaching me in the street asking if I was her and I would see photos of myself going viral on social media."Lara has yet to meet Rih, but she hopes to one day take a selfie with the celebrity, she told the "Mail."
