Rihanna was born in Saint Michael, Barbados and grew up in Bridgetown. She attended her primary school at a school named Charles F. Broome Memorial Primary School. After her primary school education, Rihanna continued to have her secondary school education at Combermere High School. Combermere School, which is also sometimes called The University of Waterford is said to be the oldest secondary school in Barbados. It is located in St. Michael, Barbados.

While a student at Combermere School, Rihanna formed a musical group with two of her classmates. Rihanna didn’t graduate from high school. According to her, although she wanted to graduate from high school, she couldn’t do so because of her intense passion to become a musician. Rihanna left school at age 16 to secure her music deal with Def Jam Records. She moved on to drop hits like “Pon de Replay,” “SOS,” and “Unfaithful.” In addition to being a musician, she now has her own beauty line, Fenty Beauty, as well as a lingerie line called Savage X Fenty.
