It’s finally here!

After teasing fans with it last week, today has brought with the surprise announcement Pop belle Rihanna promised to make at Paris’ ‘Hard Rock Cafe‘ today, doing so in the company of press and said fans alike!

What it was? An announcement that saw the star unveil a brand new product we envision will rock the worlds of some of her more fashion forward supporters, likely to snatch up what the star is now offering them today.

Ready to unwrap her good news?

Meet us below…

As to raise funds and awareness for the foundation she founded in honour of her grandparents, Clara and Lionel Brathwaite, Rihanna announces the release of a limited-edition T-shirt today, priced at $26 and launched in partnership with ‘Hard Rock.

Designed by a Ms.Kiyondra Talley, money generated by the tee will be used to improve healthcare in her homeland of Barbados, and support non-profit youth organisations, set to benefit from the $200,000 the ‘Cafe’ donated to the charity today!

On their donation, she shared:

This charity is very near and dear to my heart and I’m proud to announce Hard Rock’s donation of $200,000 to The Clara Lionel Foundation, as well as showcase my shirt and spotlight merchandise.

 

Fantastic!

Her shortcomings as a vocalist aside, one would be hard pressed not to be impressed and inspired by Rihanna‘s efforts off-stage, ever exercising her altruistic muscles to give back to her immediate community and the world at large!

Here’s hoping her next LP is just as remarkable!

  7. Career Ender June 5, 2014

    Wait a minute, I thought that Canadian power bottom “exited” this site hours ago
    .
    Only for him to make it in record time to post irrelevant comments
    .
    Bishees aint got life out here
    .
    Talk about a Molly 2.0

  8. Kamikaze June 5, 2014

    They said she was gonna make a big announcement.. lmaoooo. Ain’t nothing “Big” or “Exciting” about this.
    _____

    Isn’t she a supposed to be a “Pop star” ?. The ONLY Things she’s getting acclaimed for are her “Looks”. She should just retire and become a model or designer, cause her level of artistry when it comes to music is through the floor.

    • FAF June 5, 2014

      DEAD.

  9. CiMinaj June 5, 2014

    Pardon me if this does not excite me

  10. SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) June 5, 2014

    I still got this bitchh in her feelings? Aww that is so cute.

  11. Blue Ivy Carter-Rodriguez June 5, 2014

    She is really right with this new album. Congrats Rihanna, that’s real sweet and I know that there will be many ventures like this to come. Why didn’t Sam post about Hippo donating 500 000 to an organization? I thought that was real good of her. Or was it old because I seen the picture circulating around social media

    • Kamikaze June 5, 2014

      No it’s not old. She donated half a million dollars to the ChimeForChange Organization for women empowerement… True feminist, true humanitarian. Gotta love her generosity.

      • Blue Ivy Carter-Rodriguez June 5, 2014

        Ok relax. Rihanna donated 1.5 to a hospital in Barbados.. Beyoncé is playing catch up

  12. Phaedra Parks June 5, 2014

    SHE NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A “BIG”
    ANNOUNCEMENT! THAT WAS HER TWITTER NAVY
    PUMPING IT UP. IF YOU HAD ANY SENSE YOU WOULDA
    KNEW THE ANNOUNCEMENT WOULD HAVE NOTHING
    TO DO WITH MUSIC!!! STARGATE SAID SHE IS HALFWAY
    FINISHED WITH R8 AND IS TAKING HER TIME. STOP
    BEING SHADY AND APPLAUD HER EFFORTS OF BEING
    CHARITABLE WHICH SHE DOES A LOT BELIEVE IT OR
    NOT. THE ALBUM WILL COME SOON……

  13. Valerie June 5, 2014

    Is that all? NEXT>>>>

  14. Rihyeezy June 5, 2014

  16. Career Ender June 5, 2014

    .
    What’s there to hate?

  17. Career Ender June 5, 2014

    .
    Typical example of unloved phags who can’t even afford simple kfc meal

    Flea hive anticipating R8 more than the Navy

    I wonder if pretty hurts is still sliding down the bubbling under charts 🙁 🙂

    • Yonce June 5, 2014

      Lmaoo. Pretty Hurts is not even a single yet, what are you talking about? It doesn’t get reslesed to radio until June 10th. Anyway, it’s gonna Flop just like her other singles.
      ____

      Good thing that her album outsold all of y’all faves, with absolutely no #1 hit. Poor Nazi. 🙁

      • The Great Lacefronce. June 5, 2014

        The flea hive said Whaleonces album would be diamond, has it outsold Unapologetic yet?

      • Yonce June 5, 2014

        It’s not diamond but it still outsold your fave. Guess those #1’s are not of great help after all huh? Beyonce is now 15,000 units from being x2 platinum. How many multi platinum albums does Rih have? Huh? 1 out of 7 right? With all those #1’s that can’t even help her push past 1.5 Million in the U.s Lmaoooo.
        Bey doesn’t need a hit single, she has hit albums. Now run along bitchh! Loser.

      • The Great Lacefronce. June 5, 2014

        The Queen sells worldwide unlike Localonce. How is Flop-O doing? Hopefully better than Pretty Hurts

      • Yonce June 5, 2014

        “LocalYonce” has x2 diamond album in Brazil, more than any artist in the last two decades. And also a x5 platinum album in Poland. What about Rihanna? Right!

        ____

        BEYONCE by Localyonce is now sitting at 3.48 Million WW in 6 months, with NO Promo, I repeat, none (Radio/TV interviews, or prrformmces besides Grammys n Britts). What about Unapologetic? hehehee 😀

    • Jameel June 5, 2014

      Lmaoo clock that ignorant Nazi. When will R**** ever have a diamond album in any country let alone a non- English speaking one? True queen. U go Bey!

  19. Jameel June 5, 2014

    Oh please. Beyonce Gave away 500,000$ , yup half a million bucks to charity the other night. Step it up Rih. You’re a bad b**** right? You’re a big superstar right? Step up. Lmaoo 😀

    • Phaedra Parks June 5, 2014

      SINCE WHEN DID CHARITY BECOME A
      COMPETITION? YOU F*** ARE SOOOO DELUDED.
      BTW RIH DONATED OVER $1M TO A LOCAL HOSPITAL
      IN GRAN GRAN DOLLYS NAME. STEP WHAT UP
      EXACTLY????

      • Jameel June 5, 2014

        Girl plz, them Barbados dollars aren’t Shitf

      • Phaedra Parks June 5, 2014

        HAAA THEY ARE PROBABLY WORTH MORE
        THAN THE AMERICAN DOLLAR WHICH IS SINKING
        IN VALUE EVERYDAY KIIIIII

  20. Career Ender June 5, 2014

      • Skyfall June 5, 2014

        Stay pressed, there music is actually good especially their last album “Midnight memories” it ventures off from their typical t*** pop sound and into a more mature alt rock sound which shows growth and they all…. Well 3/5 can sing. Especially Zayn

    • tee June 6, 2014

      @skyfake u r so fake n pretentious u know u r no Adele stan b****.

  24. yo June 5, 2014

    “hard rock” selling t-shirts with her on it. unique. gotta get one.

    how do your own shirts sell tho tgj?

  25. Blue Ivy Carter-Rodriguez June 5, 2014

    R8 is not here yet till then hard rock is also selling Beyonce’s album as coasters. Maybe this will help Beyoncé live up to the ‘king’ title

  26. RihHive June 5, 2014

    Good job Rih! Keep up the work

  27. GILBERTO June 5, 2014

    If the highlight of your career this year is that announcement, then things aren’t going very well. And, please, that ugly t-shirt (sorry, it’s f****** ugly) is to raise funds only, don’t take personal credit for things like that. It’s very pathetic. She ain’t gonna get paid.

  28. Sisqo (king of R&B) June 5, 2014

    So this is what I waited for???? This is cool but I rather hear new music…I’m getting sick of these fashion ventures blah blah.Worry about your music Rihanna.

  29. ENOUGH ONIKA (NEW & IMPROVED) June 5, 2014

    What the f*ck??? –___– *leaves post*
