It's not R9, but we'll take it! On Monday (Jan. 20), Rihanna released Rihannazine, a special collection of interviews curated and co-created by the superstar in collaboration with i-D.
Among the luminaries RiRi interviewed for the 'zine are supermodel sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid, Emmy-winning multi-hyphente Lena Waithe, and up-and-coming rappers Rico Nasty and Young M.A.
"For me, this very special issue of i-D represents change and culture," Rihanna said of Rihannazine in a statement. "It is dedicated to some of the people who are progressively reshaping the communities across fashion, music, art and activism -- creating a more inclusive and diverse future."
Among the pages of the special issue -- which features two high-fashion, black-and-white covers of Rihanna -- the superstar also highlighted RuPaul's Drag Race breakout Vanessa Vanjie Mateo, dancer/choreographer (and frequent Justin Bieber collaborator) Parris Goebel, rising hip-hop star Leikeli47, R&B singer-songwriter Kelela and more.
While all 44 interviews by RiRi can be accessed online, physical copies of the limited edition magazine are now available for pre-order here.
