Rihanna is a Barbadian singer, songwriter, rapper, dancer, record producer, and actress. She has been Barbadian Ambassador at-Large, since 21 September, 2018.
She is the daughter of Ronald Fenty, who is from Barbados, and Monica (Brathwaite), who is from Guyana.
Rihanna’s paternal grandfather was African-Barbadian. Rihanna’s paternal grandmother, who is white, has Scottish, English, and Irish ancestry. Rihanna’s mother is of African-Guyanese descent.
In an interview with Allure magazine, Rihanna stated that she was bullied in school and called ‘white’ by the other kids while growing up in Barbados.
Rihanna’s paternal grandfather was named Reginald Leslie Forde (the son of Helen Forde). Helen was the daughter of Joseph Nathanael “Joe” Forde and Louisa Jane Bascom.
Rihanna’s paternal grandmother is Elizabeth “Betty” Fenty (the daughter of Stanley Fitzherbert Fenty and Hilda Olga Coppin). Elizabeth is white. Her parents were born in Barbados. The surname Fenty is usually Scottish and the surname Coppin is usually English. Rihanna’s grandmother is also cited as having Irish ancestry. Elizabeth is from a family of “Red Legs,” descendants of slaves from the British Isles who were sent to Barbados. Stanley likely was the grandson of John Fitzherbert Fenty and Mary Louisa Jane Fenty.
Rihanna’s maternal grandparents are named Lionel Brathwaite and Clara “Dolly” Viola Venetta Johnson.

Dont be ridiculous.
He looks black? https://ethnicelebs.com/clarence-seedorf
Only one random example
Are there any black people who are fully African in the America’s?
Yes, maroon colonies are in places like latin America
In Rio De Janeiro (Brasil), and a little bit of Bahia and some places in northeastern Brazil, I see blacks like Africans, especially Rio De Janeiro
Now, even though most of them are black mestizo and white many white and some white mestizo, I am absolutely sure that Rio De Janeiro is the new Brazilian Africa, Now, I’m from the northeast of another place, but close to Bahia, I’ve seen dark black people, but there were two, If I’m not wrong, there are many people who look like Africans in Colombia, But also in the USA there are a lot of people who look like Africans, I’ve seen many in movies, series, photos
Most definitely. I’ve matched with more than one African American on Ancestry who are 100% African in ancestry who trace their ancestry back to slavery in the 1700 and 1800’s. It’s not as rare as some might think.
Yes.
Maroons in Jamaica
Pockets of 95-100% African Haitians
Gullah-Geechee Americans from South Carolina & Georgia tend to be 100% African
Maroons and isolated populations of Africans in Guyana
Black Tobagonians tend to be fully African without any European or Asian admixture
Lots of New World black people are fully african.
