Among those who turned up for the event include rap legend, JAY-Z and wife, Beyonce, Lil Kim, Emily Ratajkowski, Cardi B, Martha Hunt, Petra Nemcova, Riley Montana, Imaan Hamman, La La Anthony and host of others.

The beautiful singer had a lot of support from her family as they all turned up for the charity event. Rihanna posed on the red carpet with her beloved grandfather Lionel Braithwaite, her mother Monica Braithwaite, her niece Majesty and other members of her family.

Rihanna has had the not so good side of relationships and of late has been speculated to have found love again but this time not with a fellow celebrity.

The Barbados born star seems to have a new mystery man in her life, Hassan Jameel, who is a Saudi businessman from one of the richest families in the world. His family owns the rights to sell Toyota cars in the Middle East country.

A source disclosed, "This relationship is the real deal. Rihanna has told friends she’s in love with him and seems completely smitten."

"They’ve been spending a lot of time together away from prying eyes and are really serious. They’re really enjoying each others’ company."

Jameel is the deputy president and vice chairman of family business Abdul Latif Jameel, one of the biggest companies in the world.
