Rihanna is known for her alleged relationship with the Canadian rapper/singer Drake. However, RiRi has always denied being romantically involved with the Hotline Bling star. However, Drake has often described her as his ‘ultimate fantasy’ in some of his interviews. Her relationship with Chris Brown, leading to his arrest for assaulting her, had been one of the low phases of her life, but now she is idolized as this boss lady by her fans, and she has come a long way since.
Like her relationships, RiRi has been in the news often for her affinity for weed or marijuana. The singer was once reportedly banned from a Barbados hotel for smoking heavily. In 2015, she was accused of doing drugs at Coachella after a video of her partying went viral on social media. She was seen with a few others in the video where RiRi appeared to snort cocaine. The R&B singer clarified it by commenting on the original Vine video’s comment section.
