Rihanna's heart is as big as an ocean. The pop star is taking time out of her busy schedule to help 26-year-old Seun Adebiyi, a Nigerian athlete who had hoped to compete in the 2014 Winter Games in skeleton sledding, but was diagnosed with Leukemia during training, a bone marrow donor.
Rihanna got a heartbreaking letter from Seun and promised him she would do anything in her power to help him out.
Rihanna said: "Leukemia interrupted Seun's dream of being the first Nigerian in the Winter Olympics, but together we can help him make his dream come true. We need to find him a bone marrow donor! Please sign up with DKMS!"
And she's not alone in her search. Grey's Anatomy actor Justin Chambers is also asking potential bone marrow donors to come forward and help save the life of the Yale Law School graduate.
Seun is astonished both Rihanna and Justin have taken the time to help him. He said: "I am deeply touched by their plea for donors, not just for me, but for others as well.
"Their voices are so powerful and it encourages me how they used their influence to raise awareness about this important issue. That was incredible."
This isn't the first time Rihanna has used her star power for a good cause. Back in 2008 she made public pleas to help six-year-old Jasmina Anema and 43-year-old Lisa Flynn find bone marrow transplants. What an inspiration!
So much for them being “just friends”! Rihanna celebrated her 22nd birthday over the weekend, and Dodger player Matt Kemp threw a big bash for her in Phoenix, where’s he’s been for spring training.
According to E!, the bash was a total surprise to Rihanna, who was only expecting a small get-together with a few close friends.
According to insiders, Kemp planned the big event for over a month! The source claims the party included Sprinkles cupcakes, Jamaican-style food, and Johnny Walker Blue Label as the drink of choice.
Kemp reportedly brought out a cake decorated with all of Rihanna’s tattoos, while everyone sang Happy Birthday. "It was so sweet, and she was really surprised," the source said. "She looked just beautiful."
The insider claims Kemp gave Rihanna a custom-made diamond necklace as her gift, as well as a lapdance from a little person porn star named Bridget the Midget! "It was a female little person," says a source of the strip tease. "She thought it was funny!"
RIHANNA BLOG: Fans give mixed reactions to Rihanna's V Festival performance#navbar-iframe { display:block }skip to main | skip to sidebarRIHANNA BLOGRIHANNA, UMBRELLA, SEXY, GOOD GIRLS GONE BAD, RIHANNA PICTURES, RIHANNA LYRICS, UNFAITHFULL, RIHANNA PIC, RIHANNA PICTURES, RIHANNA BIOGRAPHYRihanna Sunday, August 21, 2011 Fans give mixed reactions to Rihanna's V Festival performanceRihanna played an action-packed set on the first night of V Festival at Weston Park on Saturday (Aug 20).
The pop star, wearing a midriff-baring Union Jack shirt, fishnet leggings, short jean shorts and a leather jacket, arrived on stage while dancing against a pole as she began singing 'Only Girl (In The World)'. Later on in her set, she sat straddled on top of a pink smoke-blowing cannon while her backup dancers carried pink rifle guns.
Rihanna also showed off her instrumental skills, playing drums at the end of 'Breakin' Dishes'.
Many fans, like Sam Bathgate, 17, thought the performance was "amazing. Everything she did was dead good. The way she was dressed looked gorgeous - it was absolutely fab. She pulled it all off really well, and she had me singing along to every single song she did."
However, for some festival-goers, the show lacked audience interaction. "It was a really good performance, performance-wise," Frances Clark, 23 told NME. "But she didn't speak to the audience very much, which I think is important to make you feel part of it. I just wanted a bit more of that, really."
Rihanna later joined Eminem onstage during his headline slot to perform 'Love The Way You Lie'.

Rihanna may have gone on a romantic vacation with her rumored man Matt Kemp, but she insists she's still single.
Rihanna spoke to 104.3 MY FM's Valentine in the Morning show in Los Angeles where she talked about not having a date to the Grammys and how she's currently single.
"I'm going to the Grammys alone, as always!" she said. "Even when I was in a relationship, I always have gone alone." She then added, "I'm still single, if that's what you really want to ask!"
It was just last year during a pre-Grammy party where Rihanna was attacked by her then boyfriend Chris Brown. But Rihanna's not looking back, just one year later, she says she's "excited" about attending the Grammys.
RiRi is nominated for Best Rap/Song Collaboration with Jay-Z and Kanye West for "Run This Town."
"This was actually the first piece of music we did since the last Grammys," she said. "It's exciting that it's nominated."
"We cannot wait. We hope we bring home the bacon, but if not, it's great that it was nominated," she added.
Rihanna kicked off the relationship with the BTA during her trip to Barbados last week, where she gave a performance to over 25,000 fans during a concert at the Kensington Oval, which was produced by Jay-Z's Roc Nation.
"I travel everywhere in the world and nothing feels like this place... never," Rihanna said during the concert. "And it all started like really two streets over from this oval where I grew up, where I was raised, right there in Westbury -- singing in the shower, annoying my neighbors. Now I'm back home with a full-on concert for my country. Thanks to you, Barbados!"
As a cultural ambassador for Barbados, Rihanna will be responsible for promoting the destination and advertising campaigns, promotional appearances and on social networks.
While in Britain performing at the Staffordshire leg of the V Festival, Rihanna, the 23 year-old pop sensation from Barbados,got the audience roused with her sultry outfit and steamy dance moves. She donned the stage in a pair of short, short, short denim shorts embellished with silver cone studs and a cropped Union Flag print top accessorized with safety pins. She completed her sexy outfit with a black, fishnet stockings and a silver studded black leather jacket.
Rihanna says being famous has ruined her love life. Apparently, men are intimidated by her and all her fame.
I have idea why that would be, it’s not like she’s dated everyone from Colin Farrell to Drake, or that she has 10 number one hits on the Billboard hot 100 charts and she’s only 23, or that she told Cosmo magazine that she likes her men “hot and hung.” No idea why any of those things would make a man feel intimidated!
“It can definitely be intimidating to guys to date someone in this industry. And it’s really hard to find a guy who doesn’t care about that stuff,” the Barbados singer has said.
Rihanna was recently linked to Los Angeles Dodger Matt Kemp but she hints that she is single when she admitted that she is “open to love.” She tells UK Cosmo mag her theories on a good relationship, “Guys should have to earn it. Because the minute they get it, they want something else.”
Preach it girl. However, as much as RiRi claims it’s hard to date when you are soooo famous, she seems to like to make men work for it. “Men like the thrill of the chase when it comes to pursuing a mate, so you have to keep ‘em guessing. I’m like that too. I get bored fast.”
