The Macron couple can now add a renowned singer, the American star Rihanna, to their list of great admirers.
In an interview published on Tuesday, April 9, 2024, Rihanna reiterated her admiration for Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron. Having known them well from having met them several times in the past, the Barbadian artist describes Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron as « extraordinary people ».
The glowing comments from A$AP Rocky’s partner clearly show that she was impressed by the French presidential couple. She shares her impressions in a lengthy interview with Interview magazine, published on Tuesday, April 9, 2024.
When the magazine asked the singer about her friends today, particularly if the French president and his wife were among them, Rihanna’s response regarding the Macron couple was, « They are extraordinary people ».
According to the 36-year-old star turned businesswoman, Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron are « very humble people who hold very powerful positions ». « They are charming », she adds, affirming that « Brigitte is such a graceful first lady ».
It is worth noting that Rihanna had met the couple on several occasions in the past. In January, she had a conversation with the first lady at a Pièces Jaunes event, along with A$AP Rocky and Kendji Girac. Prior to that, in February 2018, she had the opportunity to speak with Emmanuel Macron at a conference organized as part of the Global Partnership for Education in Dakar, Senegal.
Their first meeting took place the previous year when the artist visited the Élysée Palace to discuss children’s access to education with the President. At the time, Rihanna had already described her encounter with the Macron couple as « absolutely incredible. »
