RIHANNA: Road in Hometown Being Renamed in Her Honor

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

  • Rihanna fans from all over the world are going to want to visit now. Hope Barbados is ready for the Navy. 
  • Rihanna's done so much for Barbados, including contributing to charities that fund education, disaster relief, donor needs and more. 
  • She also funded a "modernistic center for oncology and nuclear medicine to diagnose and treat breast cancer at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Bridgetown, Barbados." 
  • RiRi honored her former residence by naming her record label after it, Westbury Road Entertainment.
  • She has a lot to celebrate lately, especially the success of her makeup line Fenty Beauty and her Puma collaboration. 
  • She's Barbados's most famous export. 
  • The road should be called "Shut Up and Drive."



Rihanna will have a street in her hometown of Saint Michael, Barbados named after her. 

The Bajan bad girl never forgot her roots, and over the years has done a ton for the Caribbean country, from fundraising and charity work to taking part in international tourism campaigns. And soon, a piece of the island will bear her name. The street formerly known as Westbury New Road will be re-christened Rihanna Drive.

This past Friday, the Government of Barbados Ministry of Tourism announced, “The Government of Barbados will on Independence Day, Thursday November 30th...officially change the name of Westbury New Road located in St. Michael to Rihanna Drive in honor of Barbadian superstar Ms. Robyn Rihanna Fenty, who grew up in Westbury New Road.”

On Barbados’s Independence day, Rihanna and the Prime Minister of Barbados, Freundel Stuart, will be present for the two-hour ceremony to unveil the street’s new signage. (Nation News)
