The “Wild Thoughts” singer spared no expense dropping a whopping six figures on the bash. According to InTouchWeekly “She had a Louis Vuitton tent and a Chanel tent filled with expensive gifts from each fashion house.”  But we kinda aren’t surprised. Majesty has been rocking designer duds thanks to Rih since she was 1. Remember when she bought her a chanel bag for her first birthday.

In 2016 Rihanna was named, “global ambassador” for the Global Partnership for Education, a job she takes very seriously. Two years after earning that title she helped the organization raise the mind blowing sum of 2.3 billion dollars during their fundraising conference in Sengal.

SO while Rajad got a car, his elder brother, Rorrey got a house. Rihanna purchased the home to help set up Rorrey who is an aspiring rapper.

Apparently that kind of love can get you a Luxury spot on the beach when your sister is the worlds wealthiest female musician.

Rih and Harry had the finger-prick procedure done during a visit to a HIV drop-in center in Barbados on World Aids Day. While both of their tests came back negative, they wanted people to understand that positive results aren’t necessarily a death sentence and encourage more men to get tested.
