Rihanna has been announced as the latest addition to promote the coconut water brand Vita Coco's growing roster of pop star endorsers.
The singer joins investors Madonna and Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis, both of whom are staunch advocates of the brand.
Beginning this summer, the red-coiffed 'California King Bed' singer will take part in a national advertising campaign for the product -- also noted as a hangover helper -- of which she claims to be quite a fan.
"I love Vita Coco! It's real coconut water from hand-picked coconuts," Rihanna said in a press release announcing the partnership. "It's delicious and so good for you!"
"Rihanna is a natural fit for the Vita Coco brand and I'm so happy to have her on the team," Madonna said of her endorsement.
Founded in 2004, and based in New York City, Vita Coco is the best-selling fresh coconut water brand, sold by over 20,000 retailers across the country.
Madonna and Kiedis were announced as minority investors in the product in early 2010, alongside actors Matthew McConaughey and Demi Moore.

Rihanna has never been shy when it comes to discussing her upbringing in Barbados, shedding light on her days climbing trees with her younger brothers. However, the pop superstar has kept quiet about older siblings in her family.

"My girls thought she was great fun and now, of course, they love the fact their auntie is one of the most famous singers in the world," Kandy told Britain's The Sun newspaper. "They love her music and are always singing her songs at the top of their voices."
Rihanna's father also disclosed that the Grammy-winning entertainer has a 30-year-old half-sister, Samantha, as well as a 27-year-old half-brother Jamie.

Rihanna is setting the record straight regarding rumors that she may be the next big name to score a judging position on Simon Cowell's 'The X Factor.'
The singer, who's one of many celebrities that have been thrown in the pot to possibly join the show, explained that scheduling conflicts prevented her from heading to the singing competition.
"I just heard about it actually, but, yes," she said on Ryan Seacrest's radio show regarding the rumor. "It's something that I would have loved to do, actually. But our schedule doesn't allow and it's a demanding schedule to be on that show. You have to be around months at a time, which is impossible for me."
Other names that have been brought up include Black Eyed Peas member Fergie and Nicki Minaj. Although the latter rap star has since refuted the reports, aside from former Def Jam chairman L.A. Reid, the other judges have yet to be announced. Reid stepped down from his top position at the label last month, and revealed that he will miss the high profile gig.
"I loved the artist roster that we created at Island Def Jam and I love the company and yes, it was difficult. It still is difficult," the longtime music executive told MTV News. "I heard about a remix that Rihanna did with Britney Spears [for 'S&M'] and I was like, 'It's the first time some music has been done that I wasn't involved with and I don't know if I like that or not.' I don't know."
Cowell's show, which originated in the U.K., is among the many singing competitions set to rival his former job at 'American Idol.' Auditions for 'X Factor' resume in Kansas City on April 15.

Rihanna on Chris Brown: 'We Don't Have to Talk Ever Again in My Life'
In her Rolling Stone cover story, Rihanna reveals why she agreed to loosen the stipulations of a
restraining order against ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. "I just didn't want to make it more difficult for him professionally. What he did was a personal thing -- it had nothing to do with his career. Saying he has to be a hundred feet away from me, he can't perform at awards shows -- that definitely made it difficult for him." But the "S&M" singer assures that "it doesn't mean we're gonna make up, or even talk again," adding she and Brown "don't have to talk ever again in my life." (Rolling Stone)

Rihanna graces the cover of Rolling Stone's April issue, and the 'S&M' singer is bound to turn a few heads with this one.
Her barely there booty shorts, fantastically short, shredded and silver, are eye-catching to say the least. Rihanna has been sporting her Kool-Aid-red locks for some time now, but especially voluminous curls make this cover shot ever-so-sultry.
Earlier this month Rihanna revealed her fitness secrets when she posed for a Vogue photo shoot with famed photographer Annie Leibovitz.
The new issue of Rolling Stone, which includes a never-before-seen interview with Elizabeth Taylor, hits stands April 1.

Justin Bieber isn’t the only artist Rebecca Black looks up to! The 13-year-old Internet singing sensation also loves Rihanna, and not only for her powerhouse singing chops.
Rebecca respects Rihanna for how she handled herself after the 2009 assault involving her then-boyfriend Chris Brown.
“Rihanna, how she came out of the Chris Brown thing so strong, that is amazing to me,”Rebecca told Entertainment Weekly when asked what artists she looks up to.
Both artists have worked hard to but the past behind them, Chris struggling the most with trying to move on. The 22-year-old singer had a meltdown Tuesday after an interview with Robin Roberts on Good Morning America where he was asked about legal issues stemming from the 2009 assault case.
He has issued his apologies and is trying to focus on promoting his latest album F.A.M.E.
While on his promotional tour, Chris was asked about Rebecca’s viral hit, and at first he mocked the ditty, but then ended up endorsing it.
“Honest opinion? It was great. I’ll be jammin’ to it on Friday, Friday,” he sang on Washington’s Hot 99.5 radio station during an interview last week.
So what does the future of Rebecca’s career have in store?
“That’s not a question you should ask me,” she told EW. “My parents just throw song ideas at me, and I’ve been listening to a billion different songs.”
And her goal is to get people moving with future hits.
“Dance anthem-like stuff, very teen-like pop songs, stuff like that,” Rebecca said of future songs she is planning.

Universal Music Group has announced that it will be releasing a digital-only compilation album featuring some of the label's biggest stars, in an attempt to raise funds for tsunami-stricken Japan.
Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, U2 and Bon Jovi are all expected to appear on the album, waiving their royalties so that the entire proceeds will go towards Red Cross Japan.
"We are doing it only digitally because it is faster, and this will be a worldwide release. The plan is to have it available later this week," a spokesperson for Universal explained. The as-yet-unfinished compilation will likely feature several other artists from the label.
Gaga lost no time in joining the relief effort, tweeting that she had designed a special prayer bracelet on Friday, March 11, just hours after the earthquake shook Japan. In two days, Gaga and her loyal fans had raised over $250,000.
Singer Ne-Yo is also contributing to the country's aid by performing at several charity concerts in Japan , one of which took place Yesterday, and another on Thursday, March 24.

Rihanna is no stranger to showing skin, but her Vogue shoot, in which she rocks some undeniably sexy Jessica Rabbit red hair, may be the most tasteful body shots the pop star has done to date.
She frolics on the beach in a Lanvin silk dress blown over her thighs, and her curves are on full display in an Herve Leger one-piece as she strikes a back bend in some Alexander Wang open-toe booties.
Rihanna is in the best shape of her life after preparing for her role in the blockbuster 'Battleship,' and it shows. She's given up her staples of junk food and pasta. Her trainer Ary Nunez has been strapping weights to her hands so she could multitask while working out.
"I hate going to the gym and doing it the old-fashioned way," Rihanna admits to the mag. "I hate anything that's too straightforward, too routine. I get bored really, really quickly."
Style has always mattered to the 23-year-old, but she has recently embraced a grown-up version of her funky, down-to-earth look that keeps beauty bloggers on their toes.
"When I was fourteen and first started going out, I always wanted to be the opposite of everyone else," she says. "So I would go to the club in a polo T-shirt and pants and sneakers and a hat on backward, just so I would not be dressed like other girls. And I got desperate for things that weren't available in Barbados. I would cut things out of magazines. I was obsessed with creating a visual with clothing, and the way things are combined."
Her highly publicized breakup with Chris Brown, which included him pleading guilty to assault, hasn't been the hardest part of the past couple of years for Rihanna.
Finding out her father, who was a crack addict when she was growing up, sold childhood photos of her to a tabloid magazine was much more painful.
"It really makes me question what I have become to my father. Like, what do I even mean to him?" she says. "It's really strange. That's the only word I can think of to describe it, because you grow up with your father, you know him, you are part of him, for goodness' sakes! And then he does something so bizarre that I can't begin to wrap my mind around it. You hear the horror stories about people going behind people's backs and doing strange things, but you always think, Not my family. My father would never do that to me."

Rihanna is doing more than just striking a pose in the new issue of Vogue Magazine; the singer is also opening up about her relationship with her father.
RiRi, who has been estranged from her father, Ronald Fenty, for some time, revealed she felt betrayed after he gave up details about her to the media, without her consent.
"Like, what do I even mean to him?" she told the magazine, breaking into tears. "It's really strange. That's the only word I can think of to describe it, because you grow up with your father, you know him, you are a part of him, for goodness' sakes! And then he does something so bizarre that I can't begin to wrap my mind around it."
Rihanna continues, "You hear the horror stories about people going behind people's backs and doing strange things, but you always think, Not my family. My father would never do that to me."
The disloyalty began after the incident with Chris Brown, in which the singer became a media target. Following Brown's assault she remained mum about the attack, but her father continued to do interviews as if he had spoken with his daughter, even though that wasn't the case.
"That was the first time," she revealed. "My dad went to the press and just told them a bunch of lies. Because he hadn't talked to me after... that whole thing.... He never called to find out how I was doing, if I was alive, nothing. He just never called. He went straight to the press and got a check. And now he does it again."
In previous interviews, the Grammy winner opened up about her strained relationship with her father, telling the U.K.'s Daily Mirror in 2007, that he was a drug addict. These days Rihanna is done trying to repair the relationship. "Now I'm like, whatever, I tried."
Although her bond with her father appears to be broken, the 23-year-old remains close with her mother and two brothers

Ke$ha may have distracted concertgoers at a recent Rihanna show in Australia by nearly fornicating with someone in the audience.
The 'Sleazy' singer was in Australia and decided to fly to Rihanna's Melbourne show on Tuesday to hook up -- literally -- with Scottish DJ Calvin Harris, who she supported during his 2009 U.K. tour. Harris, who is currently supporting Rihanna on her Last Girl on Earth tour, was joined by Ke$ha at the Rod Laver Arena Tuesday night. The two were spotted all over one another before they finally left the show early.
"They were getting right into it," said sources to the Melbourne Herald Sun. "They were practically fornicating. They were all over each other and didn't care who was watching."
The 'Blow' singer is never bashful when it comes to sex and recently announced that her face would be on 10,000 condoms -- most of which will be handed out at her shows.
Ke$ha, currently on her Get Sleazy tour, also joined Rihanna during her summer U.S. tour last year. In between sexing things up on tour, Ke$ha recently penned Britney Spears' second single 'Till The World Ends' and announced that she's working on a dance remix album
