People Are Just Realising Why Rihanna's Beauty Line Is Called Fenty And It's Blowing Their Minds

Where have you been all Rihanna's life?

A few Twitter users have been left totally shook after learning that there is a very specific reason Rihanna's new beauty range is named 'Fenty Beauty'.

Of course the entirety of the Rihanna Navy, and tbh most mild fans of the Wild Thoughts singer know that it's down to the fact she wasn't born with just one singular name.

Get checking out MTV News to find out why Rihanna is endorsing a 2-year-old beauty blogger...

In fact, in February 29 years ago the world welcomed a certain Barbadian by the name of Robyn Rihanna Fenty. Hence her appropriately named 'Fenty Beauty' line, which launched it's first products this month.

Still, some social media users have been pretty shocked to learn that Fenty is the singer's surname.

"I WAS SHOOK NOT KNOWING RIHANNA'S LAST NAME IS "FENTY" WOAHHH," read one tweet.

Another so-called fan was almost ashamed of their lack of knowledge: "FENTY IS RIHANNA'S LAST NAME SAY WHAT I am the worst fan ever," they wrote.

Yes, yes you are. 

"I, the idiot, didn't know Rihanna's last name was Fenty so I'm sitting here in class like wait... so that's why," a third fan tweeted.

Okay so we guess you guys can be forgiven if, unlike us, you haven't memorised her Wikipedia page off by heart.

Let's face it, Rihanna probably only cares about you knowing the name of her line, which happens to be doing phenomenally well after completely selling out of the darker foundations in the impressively wide range.

Bravo RiRi!
