Biography of singer Rihanna

Biography of singer Rihanna is full of happy coincidences and unexpected tests that hit the head of the star. And, nevertheless, she is recognized as one of the brightest performers of the modern scene, as well as a style icon and the best artist of the digital era of 2000 (the last title was awarded by Billboard magazine).

Rihanna - the beginning of a career

The story of Rihanna (real name: Robin Rihanna Fenty) began when the singer was barely 16 years old. The first contract she signed with Def Jam Recordings, whose director was at that time a famous rapper and singer Jay-Z. It is noteworthy that the first time he listened to the demo recording of the singer, he was very skeptical of the young singer, as her debut song "Pon De Reply" seemed to him too bright and memorable, such that any beginning singer would fade against her background. However, having met personally with Rihanna, he radically changed his mind and immediately, on the evening of the meeting, signed a contract for cooperation. Rihanna's first CD, "Music Of The Sun", was released in 2005, and "Pon De Reply" became his lead single.

Now the singer has seven successful albums, and her singles are periodically leading the world musical charts. She also became famous for her collaboration with other stars (one of the last successful experiences is the duet with Shakira "Can not Remember To Forget You"), as well as an intrepid approach to the selection of material for the performance and shooting of clips (the last single "Bitch Better Have My Money" has already caused a wave of resentment and protests).

Personal life of Rihanna

Many people consider Rianna's biography as part of her personal life not too happy. In childhood, the girl was greatly influenced by her father's addiction to various drugs. However, the family of Rihanna maintained close communication with him. And in 2009 the whole world was struck by the news that the famous singer was beaten by her then boyfriend, rapper Chris Brown. The network even leaked and actively discussed pictures of the beaten Rihanna. Chris was convicted for this crime conditionally and, in 2012, after short-term romances with Matt Kemp and JR Smith, as well as rumors of a romance with Asher, Rihanna returned to Brown and the couple was together for about a year.

In 2015, rumors began to spread rumors about the singer's novel with actor Leonardo DiCaprio, who previously preferred exclusively long-legged blond models. However, the singer and actor tirelessly claimed that there was nothing between them except friendship. And then it became known that Rihanna began to meet with a friend of Leo - the owner of the club Richie Akiva. However, this novel did not grow into something more.
