Robin Rihanna Fenty was born February 20, 1988 in the county of Barbados in the family of warehouse worker Ronald and accountant Monica. The childhood of the future star was overshadowed by the cocaine addiction of his father and the strained relations of his parents. Their marriage broke up when Rihanna was 14. Singing helped the shy child distract from the problems. At first, Robin Rihanna sang for her acquaintances and friends. But then she took part in the talent contest with the song of Mariah Carey “Hero” and confidently won it.
Carier start
In 2003, Rihanna, whose biography is constantly being discussed by fans, was introduced to Evan Rogers, who was a famous music producer. Together with his colleague Karl Starken, he made demos for the young singer and helped to send them to various record companies. Fame came to Rihanna in 2005, thanks to the song "Pon de Replay" from her debut album. In the same year, the second record of the singer appeared. A real breakthrough in his career was his acquaintance with Jay-Z. He appreciated the strong voice of the 17-year-old beauty and concluded a multi-million dollar contract with her. The third disc was released only in 2007 and, like the first two, did not disappoint the fans. At the end of 2009, “Rated R” was released - the fourth album of the singer. Three singles from it entered the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100. Celebrities such as Taio Cruz, Ne-Yo, David Gett, Sean Garrett and Alex da Kid worked on the fifth album, released at the end of next year.
Movie roles
Rihanna, whose biography is imperfect, has repeatedly acted in films. The acting debut took place in 2000 in the film "Black Hole". The future singer was lucky to work with such eminent actors as Vin Diesel, Cole Hauser and Rada Mitchell. In 2006, she played herself in the comedy Achieve Success. In 2007, viewers could see the singer in the TV series Las Vegas and on the Graham Norton show . But really her acting talent revealed in 2012 in the blockbuster "Sea Battle", which boasts good fees.
Advertising contracts
It's no secret that the stars of the stage and screen earn on advertising much more than on their main job. Rihanna, whose biography is in many magazines, is no exception. In 2011, one of the largest cosmetic brands invited the singer to participate in an advertising campaign in honor of the centenary of the company. Her images appeared in many glossy publications, and posters adorned the streets of cities. With the help of a Barbados celebrity, the company hopes to attract many new consumers of personal care products. In addition to the fee, Rihanna received financial support for her world tour. In the photo shoot, she appeared in a non-standard role: topless and without makeup, to which her fans are so accustomed. In addition, the singer participated in Renault advertising, and in 2011 launched a line of perfumes under her own brand.
Personal life
At the moment, Rihanna, whose biography was covered by many media, is lonely. Previously, the singer had a short affair with actor Shayya Labaff. Then there was a series of fleeting passions. Now Rihanna is included in the ranking of the most enviable brides on the planet. It is known that the singer has a sympathy for the famous actor Colin Farrell. According to him, as soon as the opportunity presents itself, he will definitely meet with her.
