In a video shared to X, the singer and beauty mogul spoke about her career and success during the event on November 7.

"I always say music was the thing that got the attention, but God had other plans for me," she said.

"I was able to create in other ways that were very sincere, genuine, organic and authentic to the things that I love so it doesn’t even feel like a job.

"But when you bring it home, I can express to you guys what this day means for me to be able to celebrate with the people that deserve it the most."

Retirement rumours began when Rihanna wore a shirt dress with “I’m Retired” emblazoned across the front during an out in New York City.

Underneath those words “This is as dressed up as a I get” was also printed on the dress.

But after her fans’ sadness at the short, Rihanna told Entertainment Tonight that she wasn’t retiring from music and “No-one read the other line”.
