Quite a few people have asked me “ Rianna, do you have any role models?.” I never really know what to say. Apart from my mum there is nobody I have been actively following. Since 2019 was such a horrendous year for me; I have had time to reflect on a number of things, one being the person I want to become. This is more of an individualist approach as I admired different traits of people and see how I develop my own personal traits and interest. I do not inspire to become them, I just want to be a better version of myself.

I have about five people I am inspired by:

1. Rihanna

..Nope, she is not on this list because we have the same name. I am actually inspired by her because she multi talented. Rihanna has been on different forms of income apart from her singing careers (we are still waiting on that album). She has denominated the fashion industry through her lingerie and cosmetic line. Apart from her business ventures she is also involved in charitable work such as her organisation, “Clara Lionel Foundation” which focuses on education. Her foundation has worked with schools in Dominica and Malawi. I also have an interest in education and charity so I do enjoy her music, but I definitely respect her ventures.

2. Amandla Sternberg
