Auntie Riri

The often controversial Bajan superstar Rihanna was in church yesterday singing a lullaby – and it was all good.

“Auntie Oh Na Na” arrived at the Power In The Blood Assembly on Tudor Bridge, St Michael, with her family, cradling little baby Majesty Nova Burke, the daughter of her cousin Noella Alstrong, just ahead of her 11 a.m. christening.

Scores of onlookers, kept outside the church by private security guards, screamed in delight as they tried to catch a glimpse of the pop star in her pink knee-length dress. Also in attendance were Jay-Z’s friend and business partner, Jay Brown, co-founder and president of Roc Nation, who is also Majesty’s godfather, and United States Ambassador to Barbados, Dr Larry Palmer.

After the service Rihanna headed to Sandy Lane Resort for a celebration with more than 200 guests. The baby’s mother was flown up to the United States by her superstar cousin for the delivery. (RRM)
