Rihanna Appointed As Her Country’s Ambassador For Investment and Tourism

Call her Ambassador Rihanna from now on. The singer has been appointed as such by her home country, Barbados, to promote investment and tourism.

Barbados Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley confirmed that Rihanna- Robyn Rihanna Fenty in real life- has been conferred the title of ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Robyn Rihanna Fenty, was named &quot;Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary&quot; for her home country on Thursday.<br>The role involves promoting education, tourism and investment.<br>Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley said she was honoured to confer the title. <a href="https://t.co/bauEyywjeb">https://t.co/bauEyywjeb</a></p>&mdash; Barry Tango (@urbanmode) <a href="https://twitter.com/urbanmode/status/1043319597217329154?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 22, 2018</a></blockquote>

Mottley also clarifies that while Rihanna will not be formally accredited to another country, her tasks as Ambassador would include being in charge of bringing investments. She is also expected to encourage and promote education and tourism in her home country.

The 30-year-old music sensation with such hits as “Bitch Better Have My Money” grew up in a troubled home in Barbados. She was propelled to superstardom after visiting US producer Evan Rogers who easily recognized her musical talents.

Rihanna has since lived primarily in Los Angeles and New York. Her phenomenal success includes scoring 14 number-one singles on the US Billboard chart, in the elite company only of such artists as The Beatles, Elvis Presley, and Mariah Carey.

Rihanna shared her excitement with the post in a statement released on Thursday. She said: “I couldn’t be more proud to take on such a prestigious title in my home country. Every Barbadian is going to have to play their role in this current effort, and I’m ready and excited to take on the responsibility.”

Rihanna’s fans, supporters and other social media users celebrated her new milestone on social media.
