Rihanna and her hairstyles

Barbados beauty was once modesty itself. Long hair, a pretty face, teenage outfits – nothing said that in the future, a pretty girl will become a real queen of outrageousness.

Despite the fact that Rihanna’s family could not be called musical (her father worked in a warehouse, and her mother was an ordinary accountant), the girl dreamed of a singer’s career from an early age. The future star helped her father work in a warehouse, went to school (which, by the way, never finished), and in her free time from work and study she sang in a trio that she created with her friends.

A year before her 16th birthday, Rihanna met an American producer who was vacationing with his wife in Barbados. Rihanna, along with her friends, decided to perform several songs and with her voice simply conquered the producer. This is not to say that her path to fame was so thorny and difficult. At the age of 17, Rihanna released her debut album, which entered the top ten of the coolest albums of the year according to the Billboard 200. And the next one even entered the top five. But the most significant event in the life of the young singer was her acquaintance with Jay-Z. It was thanks to him that the single “Umbrella” appeared, which received the Grammy Award (by the way, the third album received as many as nine nominations for the prestigious award).

From that moment on, Rihanna received the desired fame and the sworn enemy in the person of the rapper’s wife Beyonce. Evil tongues talked that Jay-Z was so carried away by the 19-year-old beauty that he tried his best to promote his protégé to the musical Olympus. While Beyone was angry, the videos of the young singer came out with a regular frequency, the songs took first places in the charts, the wallet and bank accounts became thicker, and Rihanna’s appetites naturally grew. To date, Rihanna has won eight Grammy Awards, six American Music Awards and eighteen (!) Billboard Music Awards.

The successful singer was extremely unlucky in her personal life. Everyone remembers the scandalous affair with Chris Brown, which ended in a hospital bed for Rihanna. Surprisingly, after a couple of years, Rihanna still forgave her aggressive ex-boyfriend. Not only that, they have renewed their romantic relationship again! True, they did not last long – after six months the couple broke up. This time it is quiet and peaceful.

Star status did not affect Rihanna at all: she still loves to come to Barbados to visit friends, she loves to throw noisy parties and never misses the carnival on her home island. The singer loves luxury and does not hide it a bit. However, she clearly can afford it – music, movie shooting, the release of her own perfume line and shoes prompted the girl to create the Rihanna Enerteinment company.

In general, the girl is not afraid to take risks. And not only in life and business. Just look at her frequent and sometimes shocking changes of images: from long hair to shaved temples, from dazzling red to silvery gray hair. This is how Rihanna can be!
