Rihanna has been appointed the "Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary" by the country of Barbados!

“Rihanna has a deep love for this country and this is reflected in her philanthropy, especially in the areas of health and education,” said Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley in a press release. “She also shows her patriotism in the way she gives back to this country and continues to treasure the island as her home."

“She has also demonstrated, beyond her success as a pop icon, significant creative acumen and shrewdness in business. It is therefore fitting that we engage and empower her to play a more definitive role as we work to transform Barbados”

Rihanna said she “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,” stated Rihanna. “I look forward to working with Prime Minister Mottley and her team to reimagine Barbados.”
