Answer
Hi Tiana...And thanks for writing.

It's great that you love to sing and I would encourage you to continue to do so.  

Does Rihanna have a website?  Would you be able to find out where she is singing and go to one of her concerts nearest you?  Would there be a way to get a back stage pass?  How about from a radio station?

Singing for your favorite singer is a good goal.  The chances of that happening for sure are slim though.  But it could happen.  If that is your dream, keep your eye on that.  

As for your dream for the world to hear you sing, are you taking lessons?  Are you working on your singing?  What kind of singing do you want to do - classical, pop, opera, country?  Look for ways to practice and to get better and find ways and places to perform.  As you improve and keep at it, you will find that opportunities open for you.  

Does that help you?
