Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that music's ultimate bad girl descended upon our nation's capital city last night, and boy did she make an impression… both on and off the stage.

Not only did she wow thousands of fans who flocked to watch her perform at the Aviva Stadium, but the Work singer even managed to impressed our very own Conor McGregor.

After shooting the breeze backstage, the notorious one took to social media to pay tribute to Ri-Ri, and he didn't hold back on his praise.

Uploading a snap of them in full form, Conor wrote: "An honour to see the pound for pound number 1 female in the game perform tonight!! This woman ain't playin!"

And the Crumlin-native wasn't the only one pumped over their meeting,​​​​​​ with Rihanna also taking a moment this morning to give the champion a sweet shout-out.

"@thenotoriousmma #ConorMcGregor backstage last night! So much heart!" she gushed. "Thanks for your kind words!"

If you were one of the lucky people to go to see Rihanna in concert at the Aviva Stadium last night, then you might have seen the singer get a bit overwhelmed.

While singing Love the Way You Lie, the Irish audience chanted back the lyrics to her, and it seems like it was all just a bit too much.

Seconds later, she starts tearing up, and was so emotional that she wasn't able to continue singing!

US gossip website, TMZ are stunned by the sight, but we know Irish fans have a certain charm on people.

Everyone knows that Barack Obama is possibly the coolest president to walk the face of the earth.

Whether it's roasting Donald Trump or getting his Guinness on in local pubs, Barack Obama is the president we all want to be.

So, it's no surprise that this lad sounds every bit as slick as Ri-Ri when his public addresses are manipulated to make him sound like he's getting his Work on.

Props to the good folk behind baracksdubs who have made us love this stomper of a tune even more.

Take it away, Mr. President.

Rihanna is on FIRE lately.

The singer has just teamed up with Dior to collaborate on a new sunglasses collection.

She's already a brand ambassador for the fashion house, but the new line of shades will see a major futuristic turn for the French giant.

Ri was also spotted out this week sporting a pair, and we have to say, we're loving the style of them. But, we bet you can't guess where she got her inspo from?

Well, give up? …Star Wars, of course!

 

When you reppin da PHUCK out yo own shit!!!

"The process was pretty seamless," she told WWD.

"I spent a day at Dior with their eyewear design team. I started by looking through all the archives to see what they've done in the past, then got acquainted with all the new materials.

"I literally sat there and drew and drew until I was happy with the design, and the team illustrated it for me right then and there," she said. 

"We picked materials and colours that same day, and after that it was a matter of weeks before I saw the first prototype."

Rihanna is a woman of many talents; a singer, fashion designer, business woman, and an all-round badass chick – but her latest venture is probably the most rewarding.

The Grammy-winning singer announced yesterday that she's launching a global scholarship program through her nonprofit charity, the Clara Lionel Foundation, to help students pay for college and university.

According to the singer, the new program will support citizens or natives of Brazil, Cuba, Barbados, Haiti, Grenada, Guyana and Jamaica in achieving higher education in the US.

Speaking to USA Today, Ri said: "To be able to give the gift of an education is actually an honour."

"Higher education will help provide perspective, opportunities, and learning to a group of kids who really deserve it. I am thrilled to be able to do this."

Rihanna launched the Clara Lionel Foundation back in 2012, and it was created and named after her grandparents, Clara and Lionel Braithwaite.

We think this is such a kind and thoughtful thing to do!

Well they kept this one under wraps for quite some time!

Rihanna and Calvin Harris  have released their brand new single, titled This Is What You Came For.

The song was teased just a few hours before its debut and the surprise tune is already available to download.

However, Calvin's girlfriend Taylor Swift teased the song two weeks ago when she wore a bomber jacket with the track's artwork on it.

The artists have previously worked on tracks We Found Love and Where Have You Been, so if they are anything to go by, this will probably turn out to be an epic summer anthem.

Rihanna is in the middle of her ANTI world tour, and last night while playing in Canada, paid a stunning tribute to Prince.

The singer took to the stage to dedicate her song Diamonds to the superstar and told her fans she will miss him.

"A lot of people have started making music and listening to music because of Prince, so right now I just want to honour him, me and my crew. And you guys."

Goosebumps you guys, goosebumps.

#WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWork like Rihanna and soon you'll be able to have make-up just like her, too.

According to WWD, the singer has just signed a contract with French luxury goods company LVMH, which is reportedly worth up to $10 million (€8.8m). 

Both RiRi and the company have been keeping quiet about the whole thing, but LVMH did reveal that the collection will be called Fenty Beauty by Rihanna and it's set to launch in 2017.

"Fenty Beauty by Rihanna is a beauty rocket ship that will appeal to a huge and diverse global audience," said the CEO of LVMH, David Suliteanu. 

"We are aiming for the stars." Oooh, we can't wait to try it now.

Rihanna has always been known to be really helpful to her fans, but her latest feat is proof she really cares.

In a series of private Twitter messages shared with Buzzfeed yesterday, a fan wanted to show how RiRi helped him through a really tough time in his life.

He wanted to come out of the closet, but feared his parent's reaction. Here is what Rihanna had to say to him:

And rather than just leaving the fan with a few words of wisdom, Ri kept up with his progress and voiced how proud she was of him:

Can Rihanna be our new agony aunt? The support she's giving is unbelievable.

Let's be honest, Rihanna is a kick-ass queen; between her albums to her slaying street style, the girl can do no wrong.

But one man, Peter Berg (from Friday Night Lights) wants to go behind all of the glitz and glam and make a documentary about the everyday life of the singer.

According to production company Film 45, the documentary is definitely on the way.

"Follow this true international superstar as she navigates life as an artist, businesswoman, and humanitarian, while contending with the inherent pressure of artistic freedom," the site says.

 

This girl RiRi she's not bad. See I'm smiling I ain't mad.

"Peter Berg's Rihanna is an unfiltered look into Rihanna's life and how she's ascended to become a global icon, providing a glimpse into the evolution of one of the world's most well-known pop artists."

There's no hints yet on when they documentary might drop, but Peter shared a photo two days ago with the singer, so it looks like it might be soon!

If you were excited to see The Weeknd perform alongside Rihanna, then you're going to be sorely disappionted.

The singer has unexpectedly pulled out of the world-wide tour due to "unforeseen" circumstances.

A statement from music website Live Nation reads: "Due to some unforeseen changes with upcoming projects, The Weeknd will no longer be joining Rihanna on her upcoming international Anti World Tour."

Whatever the changes are, who knows, but they must be pretty big if he's cancelled at the last minute. What could be more important than travelling around with RiRi?!
