YoutubeRihanna’s well known for loving her supporters, but she’s taken her compassion to a new level by privately helping a gay fan come out to his friends.
The fan, who wishes to remain anonymous, has been struggling with his sexuality and reached out to Rihanna for help over Twitter.
The fan told Buzzfeed that he reached out to RiRi a month ago because he ‘felt like he didn’t have anyone else to talk to who would understand’. And Rihanna has been helping him ever since, messaging him with her support and encouraging him with advice.

What a great story – we wish him all the best!
