Rihanna's Diamond Ball: Best Looks

Rihanna is literally the busiest celebrity on earth. Not only is she managing her Fenty empire which includes a few clothing lines and a top selling makeup brand, she is working on an album that should be released this year. Earlier this week she held her second Savage x Fenty runway show for NYFW and today she is giving back with her annual Diamond Ball. Rihanna created the gala in support of the Clara Lionel Foundation, an organization she founded in honor of her grandparents. The organization supports and funds global education, health and emergency response programs. There is also a huge emphasis on advocacy that will improve the quality of life for children around the world. Now in its 5th year, the Diamond Ball is taking on a life of its own. This time around, Seth Meyers will host the fundraiser and special guests DJ Khaled and Pharrell will bless the stage with a performance. Last year our favorite awkward black girl Issa Rae served as a host while Childish Gambino gave the performance of a lifetime.

While the object of the gala is to raise funds, attendees make it a point to look their best in the process.
