Rihanna Receives Harvard's Humanitarian of the Year Award: Watch Her Humbling Speech

Rihanna has received plenty of respectable awards throughout her career, but the artist's latest one has nothing to do with music and is definitely her most important. She was honored as Harvard University’s Humanitarian of the Year on Tuesday thanks to her tireless charity work.

Rakesh Khurana, the dean of Harvard College, praised Rihanna's gracious efforts where she inspires students to "work work work" and to "shine bright like a diamond." Then, the singer accepted her award by providing the internet with the ultimate confident Black girl hair flip gif. “So I made it to Harvard,” Rihanna said with a smirk. “Never thought I’d be able to say that in my life. But it feels good."
