French president invites Rihanna

Rihanna, who is a global ambassador for the Global Partnership for Education📚, was welcomed at the top of the steps of the Elysee Palace🏰, the official residence of the French president, before meeting with President Emmanuel Macron.

Emmanuel extended an invitation ✉ to the entertainer to discuss France's funding of international education, after she personally messaged him on Twitter 🐦 in June, "Bonjour Emmanuel Macron, will France commit to #FundEducation?" she tweeted 🐦.

"They were welcoming, we focused on the topic of education 📚 from global aspects," Rihanna told reporters, adding that a "big announcement" will be made in September, followed by "even more work in Africa in October."

The President and his First Lady Brigitte Macron even posed for a picture 📷 with Rihanna outside the palace🏰. "I can't wait to see where this is going to go, but I think this is the year for education," Rihanna concluded.
