So, was Rihanna separated from this woman (potential sister) at birth?
Beauty and lifestyle blogger, Andele Lara, was spotted starring in a Fenty Beauty makeup tutorial with Patrick Starrr, and yes, it had people wondering, ‘was that really Rihanna we just saw?’
The Boston native and founder of website Grow & Glow writes;
“I’ve never had a career of being a ‘Rihanna Look Alike’. Yes, there is a little resemblance to Rihanna but NO; I am NOT a Rihanna lookalike.”
Aha! So she admits, she looks like Rihanna.
“During an interview in 2014, I mentioned I would consider being a lookalike. This set off an online firestorm and I received hundreds of hate mail and negativity. Oh, to be young and naïve. We all make mistakes, right?
“Little did I know this moment of confusion and anxiety would force me to seek love from within, find my inner voice and GLOW.”
Well bravo! It’s never easy putting up with such negativity, and she managed to turn it into something magnificent.
Andele and Rihanna may have an oh-so similar forehead, nose, lips, eyes, ears, hair-line… OK we’ll stop… But Andele has inspired plenty of young women by encouraging them to achieve their goals and aspirations by sharing her own story. This includes her battle with anxiety and insecurities while ensuring us all, our imperfections are what really make us.
Her blog is rather inspirational and it’s definitely worth giving it a read. Despite the similarities to Rihanna, this woman is clearly following her own path and indeed, she’s doing a superb job!
