During the filming of a Chanel commercial in Downtown Manhattan, rapper A$AP Rocky surprised an actor with a proposal outside a subway station, but it’s not his longtime partner Rihanna. The scene, captured on camera, reportedly showed Rocky proposing while kneeling. He presented a ring in a box to the actor Margaret Qualley, who joyfully accepted the proposal. The video posted on Instagram created a cinematic moment that quickly drew public attention.
A$AP Rocky fake proposes to Margaret Qualley for Chanel ad
A$AP Rocky turned heads in Downtown Manhattan when he appeared to propose to Margaret Qualley during the filming of a new Chanel commercial. The moment, which unfolded outside a subway station, quickly sparked buzz after a clip from the shoot surfaced on social media.
In the photos, the hip-hop star, known for his signature mix of street style and luxury fashion, could be seen kneeling before Qualley. He held out a red ring box as cameras captured the cinematic gesture. Qualley, visibly delighted, responded with an enthusiastic “yes,” completing the romantic scene.
However, the proposal was fake and entirely scripted for the fashion house’s upcoming campaign. The shoot reportedly combined cinematic storytelling with Chanel’s signature elegance, featuring both stars as the faces of a new advertising collaboration.
The viral moment initially confused fans due to Rocky’s long-term relationship with Rihanna, with whom he shares three children. The pair, together since 2020, have often appeared in public as a united front at major fashion events and red carpets. Meanwhile, Qualley, known for her roles in “Maid” and “The Substance,” is married to music producer Jack Antonoff. She is also a frequent collaborator with Chanel and a regular at the brand’s runway shows.
The proposal scene, though purely for the cameras, succeeded in generating massive buzz online. It blended fashion, celebrity, and storytelling in a true Chanel style while reinforcing Rocky’s growing influence in the luxury fashion world.
