Rihanna's family shock
Sunday, 21 September 2008
Rihanna's family can't believe the singer has become such a worldwide success.
The Barbados-born beauty admits most of her relatives are still in shock at how famous the 'Umbrella' singer has become and struggle to comprehend her fame because they rarely see her.
She said: "It's been a long time since I saw my family because I have been so busy. They can't believe it's me that's travelling all over the world. They still see me as the little teenage girl who hated school and was always hanging out in town."
Rihanna - who is house hunting in Los Angeles with rumoured boyfriend Chris Brown - was honoured by her home country earlier this year, who declared a public holiday to celebrate her success.
The singer flew back to Barbados to perform a free concert and accept the honour, which took place the day after her 20th birthday in February.
