Rihanna, 36, started the New Year with a significant personal achievement, announcing that she stayed sober throughout 2024. In a festive Instagram post on January 1, the singer celebrated the occasion while surrounded by friends.
The video captured Rihanna joining the countdown to 2025, holding up a phone displaying New York City’s Times Square ball drop. After the celebration, she declared, “Y’all, I didn’t drink all year!” adding the caption, “New Year, New Me.”
Rihanna didn’t just focus on sobriety in 2024. In a playful Instagram clip, she was seen cleaning a hair extension with her Fenty Hair shampoo alongside a friend.
“You owe me a new bottle!” Rihanna joked, referring to the shampoo used on the extension. She humorously captioned the post, “De Dirt!!! We are walking into 2025 CLEANSED baby! 1 track at a time! Also, tell @mdollas11 to stay out of my bathroom!”
Ringing in 2025, Rihanna was joined by her boyfriend, A$AP Rocky, and their sons, RZA, 2, and Riot, 1. The family celebrated in New York City, marking the end of a memorable year.
In October, Rihanna shared her favorite parenting outfits, emphasizing comfort. She told PEOPLE, “Anything cozy, stretchy, and easy to move in. Things that don’t scratch me or my kids are what I look for in a day as a mom.”
A$AP Rocky recently spoke about their sons’ wardrobe, crediting Rihanna for their style. He admitted, “I don’t contribute when they get dressed. Sometimes she’ll dress them like me, but it’s all her. She’s got great style and taste.”
Rihanna’s commitment to staying sober, combined with her focus on family and fun moments, set an inspiring tone as she welcomed the new year.
