When? The pregnant singer said reinventing the project has ‘taken a lot of pressure off’ and ‘suits her way better,’ six years since the release of her last album Anti
Rihanna has implied that her eagerly awaited next collection will be ‘totally unique to how she needed to put it out.’
Gracing the front of Vogue’s May 2022 issue, the pregnant vocalist, 34, said reexamining the task has ‘taken a ton of strain off’ and ‘suits her direction better,’ a long time since the arrival of her last collection Anti.
It comes after Rihanna was named on Forbes’ sought after Billionaires List interestingly recently, because of her tremendous magnificence and unmentionables domain.

Gotten some information about her forthcoming collection, Rihanna said: ‘I’m taking a gander at my next project totally uniquely in contrast to the manner in which I had needed to put it out previously.
‘I think this way suits me better, significantly better. It’s genuine, it’ll be a good time for me, and it takes a great deal of the strain off.’
In December Rihanna guaranteed fans that her new music is coming ‘soon, soon, soon,’ and already saying the new music will be ‘worth the stand by.’
The Rude Boy hitmaker insisted she is ‘always’ working on her music and despite fans’ pleas for her to share her latest material, she wants to wait until she’s completely satisfied.
She said: ‘I’m always working on new music. Just because I haven’t released an album in a few years doesn’t mean I haven’t been working on it.
‘I’m not just going to put music out because people are craving it. I’m going to make it worth the wait – and it will be worth the wait.’
It also came after Rihanna was announced as one of the latest additions to Forbes’ annual billionaires list.
The singer bolstered her net worth to $1.7 billion, due to her Fenty Beauty cosmetics line and her Savage Fenty lingerie line.
She became the first billionaire ever to hail from the small island country of Barbados.
It was previously claimed the bulk of her fortune ($1.4billion/£1billion) comes from her 50 percent stake in her cosmetics line Fenty Beauty – a joint venture with French luxury goods conglomerate LVMH – and worth $2.8billion (£2billion) in total.
Her $270million (£190million) stake in the wildly successful Savage X Fenty lingerie line and her wealth from her 16 year recording career all make up the mogul’s mass wealth.
Rihanna founded acclaimed beauty brand Fenty Beauty back in 2017 with a desire to ‘make women everywhere (feel) included.’
It became a leader in providing diversity in the makeup industry when it first launched 40 shades for its foundation line
The You Da One singer first put out her makeup line at Sephora, racking up sales eclipsing $100 million over the course of its first few weeks.
By the end of its first full calendar year in 2018, LVMH said the brand took home $550million (£394million) in annual revenues, trouncing celebrity cosmetics brands such as Kylie Cosmetics and KKW Beauty.
The high-end brand turned into a billion dollar business in less than four years, and with the launch of Fenty Skin last year, looks set to grow even further.
Fenty Skin had sales of $30million in under four months on its e-store, WWD reports.
Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty lingerie line, which she has a 30 per cent stake in, is also worth $1billion (£717million).
A second round of funding for the brand in February secured a whopping $115 million (£82.7 million) for Savage X Fenty, with L Catterton, a private equity firm that fashion house LVMH has a stake in, taking a percentage of the line.
Rihanna hasn’t released an album since 2016’s Anti, but she has appeared in films such as Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, Ocean’s 8 and Guava Island.
Vogue’s May 2022 issue is available on newsstands nationwide on April 26th.
