Oh na na, what’s my name?
Lads, we’re shook.
It seems as though we’ve been pronouncing Rihanna’s name incorrectly this whole time.
In a video shared by British Vogue earlier this week, the singer/ makeup mogul/ fashionista was speaking from her pop-up store in Paris.
It was celebrating the launch of her own luxury brand, Fenty.
“Hello British Vogue, it’s Rihanna,” she said to the camera.
Standard enough, right?
Well, the way she said her own name left us, and many Twitter users, rather shook.

She called herself Ree-Anna, rather than Ree-Ah-Na.
Yes there is a difference.
Twitter literally erupted at the realisation, with fans taking to the social channel to apologise to Queen RiRi.
“I am so pissed at all of us for pronouncing Rihanna’s name wrong this entire time. I am so sorry queen.”
Fair. We are not worthy of her greatness.
“I love how we all collectively choose to pronounce Rihanna’s name wrong,” wrote another
Another shaken Rihanna fan said: “So, we’ve been pronouncing Rihanna’s name wrong this whole time.”
Now we realise it isn’t exactly the worst attempt at pronouncing her name, but sure look, it’s still wrong.
