Rihanna ended her last performance singing her best hits, Stay, Diamonds, and Love on the Brain. Rapper Drake had the honor of awarding Rihanna with the Vanguard award. Drake being classic Drake, used this moment to confess his love for Rihanna by saying,” [Rihanna] is someone I’ve been in love with since I was 22.” And he even tried to sneak in a kiss. When Rihanna received the Vanguard award she started off by saying, “It’s such an amazing moment in my career. When I think about the Vanguard Award and receiving this tonight, all I could think of is my country.” Rihanna further explained that her success is no longer her own, her success, it is her fans, her family’s, the Caribbean’s, women’s, and black women’s. She thanked everyone who has stuck by her from the beginning and thanked MTV before being escorted off stage. A huge congratulations to Rihanna on her success’s.
