Rihanna has been part of the shoebiz for many years now, but there is something we did not know about it and it has to do with the name. Apparently, her name is not pronounced as we have always said and the singer has been careful to point us to this.

In a video in which she introduced the new collection of Fenty Beauty, she utters beautiful, clear and clear her name and is not Ree-ah-nah (or Rihana as we pronounce it) but Ree-anna (read: ena). Better hear it with your ears in the following video!

Many people have remained "shocked" by this "discovery," after so many years of realizing that the singer's name had been wrong all this time. Some feel that this has to do with the difference between the American (Ree-ah-nah) and English (Ree-anna) emphasis, while others feel that this mistake is unjustifiable.

knowing how
to pronounce rihanna
All of you who say you do not pronounce Rihanna with a hard 'Ah' on the 'anna' are lying unprovoked.

However, this is not the first time Rihanna himself has shown how her name is pronounced. In an interview with AJ Hammer, she has clearly indicated that her name is "Ree-anna"!
