Rihanna Clarifies The Pronunciation Of Her Name (Season 7)

At 31, she found love; three years later she’s had a beautiful baby boy and another on the way. Words are powerful.

[@RandomBloke007]

It's not her accent. It's the American accent that makes people say her name incorrectly. In the UK, we all say Rihanna like she does.

[@neene7]

well I only called her ri onna because that's how Jay z prounounced it 😆

[@WestAirAviation]

She and other celebs say her name incorrectly in a lot of her early 2000's material. Just watch music videos from the past, and you'll hear her say it Ree "aww" nah herself. There's no ambiguity. I always figured it was marketing.

[@silviaprodi]

She’s 21 here but her attitude is 30!

[@tallysworld21]

Fan of her since her beginning in 2005, always called her like she said. The other version is the american accent, but she is from Barbados and they prounce it as like she said so more ee

[@BronzeLotus]

Just a thought: It's not about having an American accent, as one's U.S. accent will also depend on your region, etc. The mispronounciation of her name likely stemmed from when she was introduced to the airwaves - and because that's how JAY Z pronounced her name in "Umbrella". I, for one, make it a point to ask people how to properly pronounce and spell their names since there can be variations.

[@amberm4624]

He manifested her and she manifested him. Beautiful ❤️😍 Now she's living a dream, a billionaire, her own everything and beautiful family. What a blessing and love looks beautiful on her.
