Despite what appears to be a hiatus from the music circuit, albeit her constant assurance that an album is forthcoming, Rihanna remains a globally sought after commodity.

The Caribbean native who rose to superstardom in the last decade, copping multiple music and fashion awards and of course becoming an ambassador for her home country of Barbados, has remained a constant source of intrigue. On New Year’s Eve fans of the ‘Fenty’ creator anticipated the release of her R9 album. They’d held on to Rihanna’s promise that she would be releasing the album before the end of 2019. She did not. Still, there is no word on whether the album will soon be released, but, like clockwork, Rih’s managed to get the internet talking today, posting a bare faced selfie, something that’s hardly ever seen these days.

On her Instagram page, the singer and businesswoman captioned her photo, “first selfie of the year doe. #2020.” Posted just three hours prior to this story, some 3 million followers, have liked the image, proof that Rihanna can do no wrong in the eyes of the world. Meanwhile, overnight Rihanna was spotted at JFK International Airport in New York. The 31-year-old beauty was photographed wearing all black sweats and sneakers along with a braided hairdo.

Now, check out the selfie that’s got the internet abuzz.
