Discover How This Pop Star Built A Cosmetics And Fashion Empire Subscribe: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- After being discovered for her immense talent by a producer on vacation in Barbados, Rihanna travelled to the states to record her first demos. Pon de Replay was heard by then president of Def Jam Records, Jay-Z. Rihanna’s first six albums topped the charts of pop, R&B and rap. Her collaborations with major stars like Eminem and Drake were beloved by fans. But Rihanna’s success was based on more than just her incredible voice and striking green eyes. Rihanna worked hard to get where she is today. After finding success in the world of music, she branched out into film. She also worked on a few fashion lines, including a majorly successful collaboration with Puma. Then she launched her brand, Fenty, which has since evolved from an inclusive line of makeup for all skin tones, to fashion with inclusive sizing, lingerie, and skincare. No matter how much fame and fortune Rihanna has earned, she’s never forgotten her roots in Barbados. The singer has been back to work with local charities, and even has a street named after her. Her success is based on her talent and the unique quality that sets her apart from many of her colleagues in entertainment - a passion for hard work and determination.
