Rihanna tapped Vivian Wilson for Savage X Fenty’s latest campaign.

On Tuesday, RiRi debuted the new Valentine’s Day collection, revealing that she had enlisted Elon Musk’s estranged daughter, Vivian, as a model.

The 21-year-old is seen wearing a lace and floral set and red tights in the campaign.

Wilson made headlines in September when she appeared in Alexis Bittar's New York Fashion Week show, which protested “misogyny, unchecked predators [and] objectification,” and advocated for trans rights. Wilson also graced the cover of Teen Vogue last March, in which she deemed her father a “pathetic man-child” and slammed his political involvement with Donald Trump.

Wilson is the eldest daughter and second child of Musk and his first ex-wife, Justine Musk, whom he divorced in 2008 after eight years of marriage.

Musk has disowned Wilson since she came out as trans in 2020. Last summer, he claimed on X that his daughter was “born gay and slightly autistic, two attributes that contribute to gender dysphoria” while misgendering and deadnaming her.

“I knew that from when he was about 4 years old and he would pick out clothes for me to wear like a jacket and tell me it was ‘fabulous!’, as well as his love of musicals & theatre. But he was not a girl,” Musk wrote.

Wilson fired back at her father on Threads, calling Musk’s anecdotes “entirely fake” and “a last-ditch attempt to garner sympathy points.”
