Go anywhere in the world and say Barbados and 9 times out of 10 people respond “Rihanna!” And while you probably won’t get a selfie with Bad Gal Rhi Rhi herself, you can certainly take one on the street she grew up on, Rihanna Drive. Thousands of people from all over make the pilgrimage to this now famous road posing in front of a plaque that bears her image as well as her childhood home.
