Nigerian songstress Ayra Starr was recently seen alongside global superstar Rihanna at the Crop Over Festival in Barbados. This annual traditional harvest festival runs for three months, starting in June and culminating in the grand carnival parade known as ‘Kadooment Day’ on the first Monday of August. The festival is a vibrant celebration of Barbadian music, arts, culture, and food.
In a video currently trending on social media, Ayra Starr and Rihanna are seen wearing intricately stoned bodysuits, extravagant feathery headpieces, and oversized wings on their backs. The sighting has sparked excitement among fans, especially following Rihanna’s revelation in April 2024 about her intention to collaborate with Ayra Starr after their meeting at the Fenty X Puma party in London.
Ayra Starr rose to fame in 2021 with her hit track ‘Bloody Samaritan,’ and her presence at such a high-profile event alongside Rihanna suggests a growing international recognition.
