Barack Obama turns 60

Barack Obama The first Black president of America. We at SmashbySparks pay homage to one of the smartest, coolest men in the world, Barack Obama, on his 60th birthday, with his own inspirational words.

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

“All of us have to recognize that being a man is first and foremost being a good human. That means being responsible, working hard, being kind, respectful, compassionate.”

“I couldn’t have done anything that I’ve done without Michelle … not only has she been a great First Lady, she is just my rock. I count on her in so many ways every single day.”

“Nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change.”

Rihanna has officially entered the billionaire’s club, Forbes reported on Wednesday.

Forbes estimates that the pop star and business mogul — founder of fashion house Fenty as well as makeup line Fenty Beauty — is now worth $1.7 billion, making her the wealthiest female musician in the world and the second-wealthiest female entertainer in the world after Oprah Winfrey.

In 2017, the 32-year-old launched Fenty Beauty, an inclusive cosmetics line that made waves for catering to a wide range of individuals. Rihanna owns 50% of the company and has brought in $1.4 billion in less than 5 years. It is under the LVMH conglomerate, which made her the first Black woman under the historical, multinational group.

Fenty Beauty isn’t the only thing bringing in huge money for the star as Savage X Fenty has also proven to be a huge success. In February, the lingerie company raised $115 million in funding at a $1 billion valuation, according to Forbes.

Outside of her flourishing music career, Rihanna has achieved one more significant accomplishment as a business mogul.

With Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty keeping her so busy, fans are now left wondering when or if she will ever release another studio album. Since releasing her 2016 album “Anti,” the singer has only appeared as a feature on songs with Drake, DJ Khaled, and PartyNextDoor.
