Stars Flocked to Rihanna’s 4th Annual Diamond Ball
Shine bright like a diamond! Rihanna recently hosted her fourth annual Diamond Ball at Ciprani Wall Street in New York City. Hosted by “Insecure” star Issa Rae, with performances by Childish Gambino – the Diamond Ball’s main purpose is to give back. The event supports Rihanna’s Clara Lionel Foundation, a charity named after her grandparents. The live auction, filled with luxurious prizes such as an electric Audi and a $35,000 set of rare Armand de Brignac champagne bottles, fund Rihanna’s health and education initiatives. According to reports, Tiffany Haddish put up $75K for a pair of Chopard diamond earrings!
One of the Diamond Ball’s glamorous do-gooders on the guest list was actress LaLa Anthony, who brought Genesis Collado-Feliz as her plus-one. Genesis is the older sister of Lesandro “Junior” Guzman-Feliz – the Bronx teen fatally stabbed outside of his neighborhood bodega. LaLa commented on Instagram:
“@lala Still smiling today thank you @badgalriri for an amazing night and putting a huge smile on my girl Genesis @__octobersveryown__ face by being my date to the DIAMOND BALL. Thank you to @connieorlando for being so amazing to us & everyone who helped make this night special for her. This means the world to me Regardless of the pain her and her family go through everyday after their loss, she deserves to smile and feel like a princess even if it’s for one night. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED #diamondball #justiceforjunior”
