Rihanna was born on February 20, 1988 in the city of St. Michael, located on the island of Barbados. Her mother worked in accounting, and her father maintained a warehouse in a clothing factory.
The parents also raised two more younger brothers of Rihanna, so the whole family barely fit in a three-room apartment. The girl really loved watching the music channel, where stars such as Britney Spears and Mariah Carey performed.
Even then, Rihanna decided to become a famous singer and earn good money so that her family would not need anything. At the age of eight, she not only studied at school, but also helped her father sell clothes. For many years, the girl experienced severe headaches, and her mother had to take her to doctors, who subsequently found nothing wrong with her. While still at school, Rihanna created a musical group, inviting two friends to join it.
When the future singer was 14 years old, her father was fired from his job for fraud, after which he began to drink and cause scandals. The girl's mother did not tolerate her husband's antics for long and kicked him out of the house. At that time, Rihanna ceased to be interested in studying and even wanted to quit school.
The beginning of a singing career and ascent to the musical Olympus
But everything changed when the 15-year-old girl met American producer Evan Rogers, who was vacationing in Barbados. After listening to her, he invited the aspiring singer to New York to record songs in the studio. But since Rihanna has not yet finished her studies at school, this recording took a whole year to create. In 2005, Jay Z became interested in this work of an unknown singer and immediately signed a contract with the girl. She moves to the USA, where she begins working on her first album.

Rihanna recorded her first single in August, and within seven days it reached number two on the American music charts, also becoming popular all over the world. Immediately after it comes the debut album, which took tenth place in the main American charts. In the spring of next year, the second album of the Barbadian performer was ready, in addition, she recorded her first video for the song Unfaithful. After this, the singer went on her first tour of UK cities. In 2007, Rihanna began collaborating with many famous performers, and in the same year her third album was ready, the compositions in which became more rhythmic and danceable. The song Umbrella (Umbrella) was so loved by music lovers around the world that it allowed this single to become the hit of the year. The following year, the singer had to change this studio work, after which it was supplemented with new songs and released under a different name.
Rihanna's fourth album was completed in late autumn 2009. This work was no less successful, and her three most popular singles from the album were in the top ten of the music charts. The following year, the star worked with rapper Eminem as a guest vocalist, resulting in the release of the song Love the Way You Lie, which became a worldwide hit. A year after the release of her fourth album, the Barbadian star releases her fifth studio work, in which two singles were recorded with rapper Drake.
In October 2010, Rihanna launched a company called Rihanna Entertainment, where she combined her music, fashion and other projects. In the fall of next year, Coldplay wrote the song “Princess of China” especially for the singer, which became very popular. At the same time, she was invited to take part in the American music show The X Factor, where she assessed the talents of the participants. In November of the following year, fans enthusiastically greeted her sixth studio work. A year later, Rihanna released her seventh album, which brought her a Grammy Award. In the fall of 2013, the star again sang a duet with Eminem, also recording a video clip for this song. Then, at the end of the summer of 2014, they gave several joint concerts in major American cities, where they performed their favorite hit, as well as their compositions.
At the beginning of last year, the pop singer teamed up with Shakira, creating a joint incendiary video that was highly appreciated by music lovers around the world. The latest news about Rihanna has been very positive: last November, the singer told fans that she was working on her next album. And in January 2015, the star posted a new single on her Twitter page, where she sings with Kanye West, and Paul McCartney plays along with them on guitar. Also in January 2020, it became known that Rihanna covered the legendary Madonna track, which she performed at one event seven years ago. Only now this cover version, recorded in the studio, has appeared online for all users.
The pop singer starred in four films, but only for her role in a film project filmed in 2013, she was rewarded with an award. During her eight-year singing career, Rihanna has received numerous musical awards; in addition, she is an honorary ambassador of culture in her homeland and is involved in charity work, collecting considerable sums for children.
Rihanna's first song
Having recorded four demo songs with Rogers and his partner Karl Storken, in early 2005 Rihanna began looking for other recording studios, and very soon entered into an agreement with the famous rapper's company, Jay-Z's Def Jam records. In fact, Jay-Z was so confident in Rihanna's success that he signed her to a contract on day one, forcing her to cancel appointments with other record labels.
A few months later, Rihanna released her first album, Music of the Sun, which included her very first single, “Pon de Replay,” a track that was originally part of her demo songs. "Pon de Replay" charted well on the Billboard charts (compared to her hits "Umbrella", "Disturbia", "SOS" and "Please Don't Stop the Music") and became the starting point of Rihanna's successful career.
Rihanna's personal life
In 2009, the singer began a passionate affair with musician Chris Brown, but the lovers quarreled very often. During one scandal, the musician severely beat a girl, as a result of which he was arrested. The court pronounced a sentence, and Brown received five years of probation, in addition, he was forbidden to see and communicate with his girlfriend. The reason for this scandalous story is not known, but many American journalists believed that at that time Rihanna was pregnant by her boyfriend, but she had an abortion so as not to harm her career. When Chris found out about this, he became terribly angry and beat his beloved.

Others are sure that the pop singer lost her child during the beating. This happened on the eve of the Grammy Awards, so the star was unable to attend the event, and she was also forced to cancel several of her performances. In 2012, the Barbadian beauty told The Oprah Winfrey Show how she felt during that period. According to the crying Rihanna, it was that night that she lost a close friend, and it was hard for her to cope with it. But, despite the pain and anger that overwhelmed the girl, she also felt sorry for her former friend, believing that he, too, needed help then. After breaking up with her ex-lover, Rihanna dated athletes Matt Kemp and JR Smith several times, but these relationships quickly ended. In the fall of 2012, the former lovers began to appear in public again, and already in January 2013 there was a rumor about the planned wedding of the performers. However, the marriage did not take place, and in the spring they separated again.
In the winter of 2014, rumors began to circulate in the Western press about a romantic relationship between Rihanna and rapper Drake, whom the pop diva had met before. It should be noted that back in the summer of 2012, Chris and Drake fought over her, and the culprit of this fight herself was delighted with this fact. In February 2014, the singer and rapper had a date in Paris, but rumors immediately spread that she was again in contact with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, who congratulated her on her birthday by phone. But, apparently, the star decided not to rave about old wounds anymore, so she continued her affair with Drake, who loved her very much. More and more often, young people began to come to the attention of the paparazzi, appearing together in various public places.

Soon, Rihanna accompanied her boyfriend on a tour of Europe. But the performer, who has a difficult character, often caused scandals for him, which once again led to separation and lack of personal life. The star celebrated her 26th birthday with friends, arriving in snowy Aspen, where young people rode down the slides and played snowballs. She continued her birthday in a different, more festive atmosphere. The singer posted pictures on Instagram showing her in a luxurious dress with a cocktail in her hand.
At the end of 2014, Western journalists began to claim that Rihanna and Leonardo DiCaprio were not indifferent to each other. The reason for such speculation was paparazzi photographs and statements of eyewitnesses who saw the stars together at various parties. The artists themselves did not comment on these rumors, but their close friends claim that the young people were just having fun, deciding to have a good time together.
Rihanna, who has not yet had a chance to give birth to a child, still managed to babysit the newborn baby for a while. In the summer of 2014, the star posted a photo on her Twitter that excited her fans. On it, the singer was captured with a small child in her arms. As it turned out, her cousin gave birth to a girl, and now the 26-year-old singer is happily caring for her.
Two years ago, Rihanna bought a mansion in Los Angeles, in which she dreamed of living with her ex-lover Chris, but this did not happen, and now the star has decided to sell it. Recently, a celebrity purchased a luxurious house on the Caribbean Sea, deciding to move closer to her family. This mansion has a large number of rooms, a gym, a library, and a swimming pool. Now Rihanna will be able to spend more time with her mother and siblings.
Biography of Rihanna
The singer's real name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty. The future star was born in Barbados on February 20, 1988. In addition to her, there are other children in the family - boys Rorry and Rojad.
During her school years, the girl was interested in music, preferring to listen to compositions in the then popular reggae style, and dreamed of becoming a singer. To get closer to her dream, Fenty organized her own musical group, in which two more of her classmates participated. She also tried her hand as an actress, playing in school productions.
One day, a future celebrity won a song competition that was held within the school walls. She sang Mariah Carey's song brilliantly. In 2004, the girl became Miss School.
When the future famous singer turned 15, she was noticed by American producer Evan Rogers, who was already working with world-class stars at that moment: Jessica Simpson, N´SYNC, Christina Aguilera, Rod Stewart. Thanks to mutual friends, Rogers managed to meet Rihanna, after which he invited the girl to the States. The producer helped her create demo materials, which he himself sent to all well-known recording companies. Rapper Jay-Z found himself with such material, who almost immediately decided to start working with the talented performer.
2005 was a year of breakthrough for Rihanna on the path to her dream - she gained fame thanks to the release of her first composition “Pon de Replay”. The audience liked this fiery song. She instantly became popular and reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100. Following the hit song, a single was immediately released, which gained no less popularity.
At the end of 2005, the performer presented the world with her first album, which later entered the top ten among all the records in the world, and in the States it sold 500,000. Having become popular, the girl went on her first tour, but for now she performed as an opening act for Gwen Stefani . In addition to the fact that Rihanna performed songs, she also wrote music for many of the compositions.
Her second studio album was presented to listeners 8 months after the release of her debut. And again the record gained incredible popularity. In the States and England, it immediately became a Top 5 hit. The single “SOS”, called the “hymn of love,” was recognized as the best in the singer’s career. In Canada and the USA, the song was often played on radio stations, where it constantly occupied the first lines of the charts. This composition was chosen for the advertising campaign by such famous brands as NIKE and JC Penny. The performer of the hit song herself began to represent the Miss Bisou brand and star in its advertising.
In the second album, the songs “We Ride”, “Unfaithful”, “Break It Off” also became hits. Most of the songs on the record were performed to the sounds of string instruments and piano. But the singer later decided that the album lacked rock. His girlfriend added "SOS" and "Kisses Don't Lie" to the compositions.
In 2006, Rihanna starred for the first time in the film Bring It On, where she played herself at the peak of her popularity. She was also offered to star in a couple more television series: “Las Vegas” and “The Setup.” The girl reported in the press that in addition to performing songs, she would also be involved in a film career, since she needed this for greater self-expression; she happily accepted subsequent invitations to film films.
In 2007, the singer presented her third album to the world. But before that, she presented the song “Umbrella” to the audience, which instantly hit the top of the charts. Justin Timberlake helped the girl write the lyrics to the song, and he also performed backing vocals in the song “Rehab.” In the fall of 2009, the singer's fourth album was released, which sold 1,000,000 copies and was certified platinum. The first three songs from this album entered the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100.
Since 2006, the singer began to receive various music awards for her work: according to the MTV Europe Music Awards and Barbados Music Awards, she became the best performer, and, according to the Billboard Music Awards, she was named singer of the year. In 2007, she received nominations for “Best Single of the Year” and “Video of the Year”. In 2008 she received her first Grammy Award. All of the singer's records were named the best.

Relationships and friendships with colleagues
Rihanna is friends with many of her stage colleagues, but she is especially close to Katy Perry, with whom the Barbadian beauty began to communicate closely in 2009 after a scandalous breakup with Chris Brown. In 2012, the girlfriends went on vacation together to gain strength after intense touring, and also to support each other in unsuccessful romances. But when Rihanna forgave her ex-boyfriend and began dating him again, her close friends quarreled. They stopped communicating and even greeting each other. But everything changed when both girls broke up with their boyfriends. They repaired their relationship and went on a trip to Africa, intending to see safari and have a good time relaxing in nature.
It should be noted that the Barbadian performer is ready to come to the aid of her colleagues, regardless of their youth and popularity. In one interview, Cara Delevingne told how Rihanna, despite her constant busyness, will always listen to her and give her valuable advice. But they have a lot in common with Miley Cyrus: both singers love to shock the public with their extraordinary outfits. Even at important events, they can show up in revealing dresses or short shorts, feeling quite comfortable. Very often, Rihanna is also compared to Rita Ora: both singers work with Jay Z, perform rhythmic and fiery hits, moreover, they are similar in appearance and prefer the same style of clothing. But the celebrity is unhappy with this fact, believing that Ora constantly copies her stage image.
Rihanna and Justin Timberlake during the filming of a new video
In 2009, during the creative collaboration of Rihanna and Justin Timberlake, there were rumors in the press about the performers’ romance. Journalists noted that Timberlake stopped appearing in public with his beloved Jessica Biel, spending all his time with the Barbadian beauty. But when the artists finished working together, the rumors subsided. In the spring of 2013, Justin again decided to establish cooperation with the singer, which Biel was not at all happy about, who was terribly jealous of her lover for Rihanna.
Justin Bieber was always delighted with his colleague on stage, considering her incredibly talented and the most beautiful woman. The performers performed at the Victoria's Secret fashion show in the winter of 2011, after which rumors began to circulate about their secret romance; moreover, at that time the young singer broke up with his girlfriend Selena Gomez. But Rihanna's representatives denied these speculations, calling them fictitious. They also noted that the young artist really often communicates with her, but their relationship is purely friendly.
Rihanna's boyfriends
Like many famous people, Rihanna tries not to advertise her personal life and leave it behind the scenes of photographers, but, like other celebrities, she cannot go completely unnoticed. To date, reporters have managed to count five lovers of Rihanna. This list included:
- Negus Sili. Rihanna's first love in those days when she still lived in Barbados and was not famous throughout the world. The singer's departure to the USA was the reason for the end of their whirlwind romance.
- Rihanna's common-law husband is Chris Brown. The relationship between them ended in court in 2009, but then in 2012 the lovers reunited again, only to separate in 2013 and, probably, forever.
- Baseball player Matt Kemp.
- Basketball player JR Smith. The relationship with one and the other athlete was short-lived and lasted only a few months.
- Asher. The information appeared in the press in 2011, but was never confirmed.
Also, for many years, rumors about Rihanna's relationship with rapper Drake have not subsided. But judging by the way these rumors appear and then quietly disappear, we can conclude that they are either good friends or using each other as a screen for journalists.
Style and creation of fashionable images
The Barbadian performer loves to experiment with her outfits, with which she delights and sometimes shocks the audience. But this is precisely what attracts many fashion designers to her, who strive to get her into their brand. During her creative career, the singer took part in advertising campaigns for Armani, Gucci and Balmain; in addition, she is a guest of honor at Fashion Week shows. So, during the Chanel show, held in Paris, Rihanna chose a rather elegant outfit, but thanks to the fact that she only buttoned two buttons, it turned into a revealing one. The look was decorated with numerous pearl strands and a milky Chanel handbag.
In the summer of 2014, the singer received the prestigious CFDA Award, becoming a fashion icon. Rihanna arrived at this awards ceremony in a rather daring outfit designed by Adam Selman. She wore a transparent dress, decorated with a huge amount of crystals, over which she threw a fur coat. The singer accessorized her outfit with long gloves and a sparkly turban. Many guests of the ceremony were shocked by the star's image, considering it too frank for such a serious event. But designer Tom Ford stood up for Rihanna, expressing his admiration for her courage. According to him, the performer is a very beautiful woman, so she can wear such “naked” dresses. He was also supported by Balmain's creative director, who called the 26-year-old star a dream for designers. It is not for nothing that the singer has been included in the top three sexiest women in the world for several years in a row.
When creating street style, Ri-Ri boldly makes the most incredible experiments with outfits. For example, the singer can easily wear a nightgown, using it as a walking dress, and she can also easily combine sweatpants and stilettos. When it comes to footwear, the Barbadian beauty prefers sneakers, which she wears with leggings, tunics, jeans and even a pleated dress.
Paparazzi often have to look for some celebrities relaxing on the beach to photograph them in bikinis. But Rihanna does not hide from the press; moreover, she herself posts her candid photographs on her personal blog. Vacationing on some exotic island, the beauty happily poses for the camera in stylish swimsuits, showing off her slender body shape. In the fall of 2014, many show business stars became victims of hackers who hacked their accounts and posted explicit photos on social networks. Nude photos of Rihanna were also made public, because the sexy singer loves to take candid selfies on her mobile phone.
Tattoos and beauty secrets
The pop singer, who loves tattoos, has already made about twenty of them on various parts of her body. Her first tattoo behind her ear in the form of the Pisces sign appeared at the age of 18, when the star was in China. Then they tattooed a musical note on her right leg and a star on her left ear. When Rihanna started dating Brown, they got little stars on their necks, but then the singer made herself a whole line of them. As a sign of love for her closest friend, the Barbadian beauty tattooed her date of birth in Roman numerals on her shoulder. Rihanna has the inscription love on the finger of her left hand, a pistol on her right side, and a skull with a bow on her ankle. In the summer of 2012, the singer’s beloved grandmother died, in whose honor the singer got a new tattoo under her chest - the goddess Isis. In 2013, during a trip to New Zealand, the star had a decorative pattern tattooed on her hands based on sketches from a local tribe.

Now Rihanna is in excellent shape, which she can boast of. But at the beginning of her musical career, the star looked different. To achieve an ideal body, she had to not only follow a vegetarian diet, but also actively engage in sports. In addition, the beauty dances a lot, which allows her to look stunning in her videos. But the 26-year-old artist has her own beauty secrets, thanks to which she has glowing skin and perfect makeup. Very often, a star completely gives up alcohol and increases her intake of clean water. Also during this period, she monitors her diet, eating only healthy foods. To keep her skin looking fresh and even, she uses a moisturizer. If the singer needs to look attractive, she applies a mixture of moisturizer and foundation to her skin, tints her eyelashes with mascara, and applies lipstick to her lips, which occupies the most important place in her beauty products.
Rihanna previously had an addiction to soft drugs, and then she almost jeopardized her career. Also in the photographs one could often see that the star was smoking, enveloping himself in clouds of smoke.
Hairstyles and photo shoots
Ri-ri pays a lot of attention not only to her outfits, but also to her hairstyles, which are done by her personal hairdresser Ursula Stephen. The collaboration between the singer and Stephen began in 2007, and since then the star has not parted with her. At the very beginning of her career, Rihanna had long hair, which she wore loose or tied up in a bun. Then she got a hairdresser, and the singer began experimenting with her hair. In 2007, she made a bob haircut, which she diversified with various elements: multi-colored strands, asymmetrical bangs, length.
The singer's original hairstyle
It was for the release of the new album that Rihanna got hers. In 2008, the celebrity cut her hair “like a boy” with long oblique bangs, while she always dyed her strands or dyed them red or fiery red. Then her haircut became similar to a mohawk, but looked very stylish and unique. In the spring of 2013, the dark-skinned beauty became blonde, and if at first the length of her hair was short, then the singer significantly increased its length. In the spring of 2014, Rihanna sported long black curls, but after a while she published a photo in which her head was adorned with a short pixie haircut with pink hair. As it turns out, it was just a wig belonging to Nicki Minaj.
The Barbadian performer, who has a sexy body shape, has always attracted fashion magazine publishers, who have featured her candid photographs on their covers. She has starred for such publications as Esquire UK, ELLE, W, Lui, Vogue, GQ, Glamor and others. At the end of 2012, Rihanna took part in a candid photo shoot for the latest issue of the American glossy V Magazine, where she was accompanied by Kate Moss. In one of the photographs, the singer appears completely naked, however, the famous model covers her with herself, so everything looks quite innocent.
Mansion in West Hollywood
In America, pop performers earn much more than Russian artists. If in our country many young singers have to save up for a small apartment (if not rent it), then in the country of great opportunities young stars can afford to change luxurious mansions every year.
https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvj-WhvBYAG/
One of the performers for whom it is not a problem to purchase houses for several million dollars almost every year is the singer of Barbadian origin Rihanna.
The last mansion acquired by the handsome woman, who was born in 1988 in St. Michael, is located in West Hollywood, not far from Sunset Boulevard.
The purchase cost the singer $6.8 million. Initially, the former owner of the mansion asked for eight million for it, but for the sake of such a buyer he made a discount.
Information about Rihanna's purchase of a mansion in West Hollywood appeared in the media in August 2020. In all likelihood, the purchase was made shortly before this time.
The area of the house is 670 square meters, and the area of the plot on which the building stands is 1672 square meters. The house has six bedrooms, ten bathrooms (one is large and resembles a spa rather than a bathroom), a billiard room, a cinema and a gym.
In the area adjacent to the house there is a swimming pool with a jacuzzi and parking for eight cars.
The central room - the living room - is almost completely snow-white. It has a milky ceiling and walls and a light beige floor. The design of the room is successfully complemented by dark elements: a coffee-colored fireplace, a dark brown coffee table, an almost black window frame. The dining room is made in the same milky tones with dark decorative items.
The second living room in Rihanna's mansion is adjacent to the kitchen. Both rooms are decorated in the same white and brown tones, but there are more dark things in them.
In particular, the upholstered furniture in the room is golden brown. A completely dark kitchen set with an irregularly shaped “island”.
The most stunning thing about Rihanna's home is the master bathroom.
The room, the size of a standard Russian one-room apartment, has a huge window, several mirrors and a snow-white bathroom, which stands in a visible place, not adjacent to any of the walls.
According to rumors, the singer has recently stopped liking the house in West Hollywood, because in 2020 an inappropriate fan of the star climbed into it. Rihanna was not at home when the young man appeared, but she was left with an unpleasant impression.
