"What the f—k went wrong with this humble girl from Barbados?"

It's no surprise Brad has a sarcastic sense of humor and was clearly trying to be funny, but we only want to hope Rihanna and Jay Z also see it that way!

During Rihanna's First Annual Diamond Ball on December 11, Brad Pitt, 50, introduced Rihanna, 26, the guest of honor and founder of the event, while sarcastically taking digs at her and friend Jay Z. Reports claim it was in good fun, but some found it a little bizarre on RiRi's big night!

Brad innocently started out his speech by sharing a sweet childhood picture of RiRi, before transitioning into a full-blown before taking shots at the  "What Now" singer. He said:

"I’ve often asked the very question that you yourself are asking right now: What the f–k went wrong? I give you exhibit A: Yes, look at that young girl before you. All full of hopes and dreams. Living a humble existence in the Barbados parish, her whole life ahead of her. And what happened? It’s not a pretty story,” Brad said according to Us Weekly

“Like so many others, Rihanna landed on the unforgiving streets of New York at the young age of 16, and soon fell in with a bad crowd — a bad crowd led by the dubious nefarious character known as the Jay Z. For those of you not in the know, the Jay Z was an evil impresario known for churning out hit records, and ripping insane lyrics and fresh beats. Needless to say, it was all downhill from there.”

Whoa — that’s some major shade Brad threw at the successful rapper who discovered Rihanna’s talent when she auditioned for him years ago. It's no surprise Brad has a sarcastic sense of humor and was clearly trying to be funny, but we only want to hope Rihanna and Jay Z also see it that way!

Brad went on to list Rihanna’s "only" accomplishments and "disappointing" resume as an executive producer, fashion designer, actress, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and a sometimes singer. He then closed his speech with a photo-shopped overweight Rihanna eating junk food on a couch.

"I ask that we stand together, by her side, and show her our support and our love and say to her the hard words. Rihanna, put down that sandwich, get off your a** and do something. God d*** it, just do something with your life. Thank you."
