Social media influencer and entrepreneur Risper Faith has shared a memorable encounter she once had with global Barbadian singer and entrepreneur Rihanna Fenty.
Speaking during a one-on-one interview with a local digital presenter on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, Risper revealed that the two crossed paths while shopping in Atlanta, United States.
The vocal influencer further said she unexpectedly met the award-winning singer while buying groceries. According to her, the brief encounter left a lasting impression.
She added that what stood out most to her during the moment was Rihanna’s pleasant scent, saying the singer smelt really good.
“Rihanna smells good, nimekutana na yeye, I have met her while shopping for groceries in Atlanta,” Risper Faith disclosed.
Risper’s America visit
This revelation comes after Risper, who is in a long-distance marriage, visited her husband abroad for the first time.
In a celebratory post on Instagram, shared on Sunday, September 28, 2025, she said that she was travelling to America to join her husband.
“God did it and I did it — I’m in America now. From the struggles to the sleepless nights, I turned every ‘you can’t’ into proof that I can,”she wrote.
“I worked, I prayed, I conquered, and now I’m living the dream that others only whisper about. Congratulations to me, because I truly deserve this life of blessings, success, and elevation — and may the haters choke while watching me shine brighter than ever.”
Her relocation marks a new chapter in her personal life, ending the long months of separation that had left her grappling with loneliness and uncertainty. The move also comes as she continues to build her brand and expand her opportunities beyond Kenya.
Risper’s reflections on long-distance relationships are a reality many couples face, especially in an era where work, study, and migration often force loved ones apart.
Her experience reveals the balancing act between commitment and emotional needs, while her relocation signals a fresh start alongside her partner.
Moment with Rihanna
Rihanna, known worldwide for her chart-topping hits and successful beauty and fashion brands, has long been admired by fans across the globe, including in Kenya.
For Risper, the unexpected meeting is a moment she says she still remembers fondly.
