Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty Raises $125 Million For Brick-&-Mortar Retail Expansion Plans

You can always count on Rihanna, 33, to secure the bag! 

According to reports, Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty lingerie line has secured $125 million in new funding from investors, which brings the total amount raised by the ‘Work’ singer’s company to $310 million so far. The funds raised will reportedly go towards backing Savage X Fenty’s ongoing expansion into brick-and-mortar retail.

It seems like Jay-Z is a supporter of the new vision for Savage X Fenty and had a hand in its recent financial gain. According to reports, Marcy Venture Partners, a firm co-founded by Jay-Z, 52, is listed as one of the lingerie brand’s investors. Other notable investors reportedly include Neuberger Berman investment firm and  L Catteron, a private equity firm backed by LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault.
