  • Barbados celebrates its transition to a republic on its Independence Day, with members of the House of Assembly and the Senate taking their oaths of allegiance to the state at the 'National Independence Honours Ceremony' in the capital Bridgetown. The new president, Dame Sandra Mason, honours Barbadian singer Rihanna with a medal, one day after declaring her a national hero. Barbados became independent from the United Kingdom in 1966, but had until now retained Queen Elizabeth II as head of state.

    she has won awards in music & fashion industry, but she's right. being a national hero of the country you're born and grew up is on another level.

      All these Rihanna lovers fighting over Rihanna, while she is making all her millions and giving you nothing. All I was saying this girl mother and her whole mother’s family is from Guyana. The mother married a man from Barbados with a family who was a drunk and an addict with a whole other family in Barbados. You young people try to get an education because all Rihanna has is a Bagan accent with a singing voice.

      Don’t demean someone for what they are. You are a sad human being, only jealous of the success of others. Good luck trying to change the world, because instead of finding someone to look up to, you look down on national treasures.
      This means you hold ZERO value to the world that revolves you. Shame, work on yourself and you’ll grow as a person and eventually change the world.
      Rihanna showed CULTURE and spread her animosity across the world with her voice and represents the country of Barbados.
      You only represent sadness and the way you portray yourself.
