Rihanna, the Barbadian
singer, actress and fashion designer
was born February 20, 1988 in
Saint Michael, Barbados.
Her career started at the age of 15
when she was discovered
by record producer Evan Rogers. She
has risen to the top of the music
industry and fashion world in just
10 years. What propelled
her to this level of
success? A look at her birth order will
give us the answer.
Early Family Life
Robyn Rihanna Fenty was
the oldest of three children of
Monica and Ronald Fenty. She was a child full of life and
liked being the center of attention
posing for the camera
when family pictures were taken. Her mother Monica was
a make-up artist and Robyn learned
early how to apply
makeup. Her father, Ronald is a
clothes designer and he
and Rihanna would sell them at a stall in the open market
in Barbados. She has two younger
brothers Rorrey 2yrs
younger and Rajad eight years younger.
Older Siblings
Rihanna has three older
siblings from her father’s earlier affairs,
each has a different
mother. She meet Candy the oldest when
she was 15 and Candy was 24.
Samantha is 7 years older
than Rihanna and remembers braiding her
hair when she was
3 years old. The youngest is Jamie and he
is 4 years older
than Rihanna. There is no information when he first
met her
but extended families in Barbados are not
uncommon.
Rihanna gets together with all
hersiblings when she returns
to Barbados.
Her Birth Order
If we look at her birth
family we see she is the firstborn with two
younger brothers. She certainly has demonstrated the traits of
the first born, looking
after her younger brothers and getting
a lot of attention. There
has been mentioned a fight with her
younger brother Rorrey. This is a natural occurrence for the
firstborn to defend her
throne. Her father was a known alcoholic
and addicted to crack
cocaine. She has described abuse in the
family. Her parents
divorced then she was 14. As the
firstborn
with an addicted father she
would be an overachiever as she
would feel some responsibility for
the problem. Of course she
had nothing
to do with the cause of his
problem, but it is
common for firstborn children to feel responsibility
when these
problems occur. If we look at her older
half/siblings she
becomes the fourth birth. This number is added to her #1
birth
order giving her a 4/1 double birth order. The four birth order is the
playful child
that wants to have
fun and others look out for
them. This combination of birth orders may be the reason she has been so successful.
Leaving Barbados at 15 and moving to the US with another
family was a way she could escape her situation.
Chris Brown
In 2009 her boyfriend
Chris Brown was arrested on suspicion of
making criminal threats.
He was also charged with assault as
photos showed the visible
injuries sustained by Rihanna.
Picking boy-friends may go back to her
experiences with her
abusive father.
Let’s hope she has progressed past
this
problem in her life.
Achievements
For having worked only 10
years in the entertainment industry
she has achieved great
success. She holds the Guinness
World Record for digital single sales
of 58 million in 2012.
She is the 2nd
best selling female artist only behind
Madonna.
She received the Fashion Icon Lifetime achievement award
in
2014. In 2006 she started the Believe Foundation to help
terminally ill children. Many more awards have come her way.
The Future
The future looks bright
for Rihanna. Balancing her two birth
orders has been easy for
her. Taking charge as a #1 and
entertaining
and having fun as a #4 seems
to be in balance
for her. She shares this double birth order with
none other
than Walt Disney and Donald Trump.
