Inside RiRi’s 30th b’day celebratio­ns

-

RIHANNA rang in her 30th birthday on Tuesday with an elegant dinner in New York with close family and friends — followed by a Champagne-filled party that also had a performanc­e from Toni Braxton. RiRi celebrated her milestone birthday at the luxurious “landmark rooms” with stars including Paris Hilton and Leo DiCaprio. Also there was Rihanna’s billionair­e Saudi boyfriend Hassan Jameel. The singer’s group shared a four-course meal at the Grill, before moving to the landmarked the Pool space for the after-party, where Braxton performed. An insider exclusivel­y told Page Six: “It was a really elegant black-tie dinner with caviar and peppered filet mignon [that] was followed by a big party at the Pool. Rihanna was with her new boyfriend, who was at her side all night, and Toni Braxton performed.” Another source tells us the birthday girl “is a huge fan” of Braxton and was “clearly delighted” to have her perform for 30 minutes, even jumping onstage to sing a duet of the R&B legend’s hits “Breathe Again” and “Unbreak My Heart.” The first insider continued: “They crushed hundreds of bottles of Champagne, and Leo DiCaprio snuck into the after-party through a side door.” DiCaprio has remained friends with Rihanna — who wore a ruffled hot pink and black Saint Laurent mini at the bash — after she briefly dated one of his friends in 2015. Other guests included the singer’s family and executives from her label Roc Nation.
