<h1>Barbadian singer/songwriter/actress/businesswoman, Robyn 'Rihanna Fenty' is the cover girl of British Vogue's May 2020 issue. </h1>

<p>She graced not one but two covers of the May 2020 issue and she did it in style as she rock a durag from Stephen Jones Millinery.</p>

<p>In this edition the singer talks about her plans to release a long anticipated new album, to expand her Fenty Mansion which is building a skincare range.</p>

<p>In her words <em>“I feel like I have no boundaries. I’ve done everything – I’ve done all the hits, I’ve tried every genre – now I’m just, I’m wide open. I can make anything that I want.</em><strong><em>”&nbsp;</em></strong></p>

<p>She was asked where she sees herself in 10 years and she said <strong><em>“</em></strong><em>Ten years? I’ll be 42! I’ll be&nbsp;ancient.” She playfully ignores my outrage (I’m almost 40 myself) at this idea. “I’ll have kids – three or four of ’em.</em><strong><em>”</em></strong></p>

<p>When she was asked about her not meeting the right person, the business mogul goes ahead to say, <em>“I feel like society makes me want to feel like, ‘Oh, you got it wrong…’ They diminish you as a mother if there’s not a dad in your kids’ lives. But the only thing that matters is happiness, that’s the only healthy relationship between a parent and a child. That’s the only thing that can raise a child truly, is love</em>.”</p>

<p>The free digital download will be out on Friday, April 3, 2020.</p>
