Rihanna is all set to ‘work’ the stage in Jamnagar, India on March 1, 2024.
Rihanna, the queen of hit songs and iconic performances, is making headlines once again, but this time it’s not just for her chart-topping tracks. The Barbadian sensation is set to grace the stage at the pre-wedding extravaganza of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, and let’s just say, she’s getting paid in ‘diamonds’ – quite literally!
Not one to perform at private events, Rihanna’s decision to perform at the Ambani wedding comes with a hefty price tag – a jaw-dropping $8-9 million, which roughly converts to around 29-33 million Dirhams! Looks like she’s truly living up to her lyrics when she sang “Better Have My Money.”
Arriving in Jamnagar with luggage that could rival a shipping container, Rihanna is pulling out all the stops for her performance. Reports suggest that most of the cost for her gig is going towards transporting her stage equipment, outfit changes, and of course, paying her backup singers.
But Rihanna isn’t just showing up for a quick gig and disappearing into the night. She’s been spotted rehearsing and personally overseeing the setup at the indoor arena where she’ll be taking the stage. And rumor has it, she’ll be rocking some Indo-fusion clothing – talk about blending cultures like a true music maven!
Fans eagerly anticipate Rihanna’s setlist, which is rumored to include a medley of her greatest hits, from “Diamonds” to “We Found Love in a Hopeless Place.” It’s been a while since we’ve seen Rihanna take the stage, so this performance is sure to be a treat for fans who’ve been waiting ‘under her umbrella’ for far too long.
And let’s not forget the Ambani family’s penchant for grand celebrations. With Mukesh Ambani reportedly worth a staggering $116 billion, it’s no surprise that Anant and Radhika’s wedding is shaping up to be a three-day extravaganza fit for royalty. After all, this is the same family that had Beyoncé herself serenade guests at daughter Isha Ambani’s wedding in 2018 – talk about keeping up with the Carters!
As Rihanna once sang, “Shine bright like a diamond” – and with a paycheck like hers, she’s sure to be shining all the way to the bank!
