Rihanna among high-profile ‘Women of the Year’

Rihanna joined US first lady Michelle Obama, British fashion designer Stella McCartney and nine others on Monday to be honoured as ‘Women of the Year’ after the R&B singer took a public stand on domestic violence. The annual Women of the Year Awards, published by Glamour Magazine for the past 20 years and sponsored by L’Oreal, pay tribute to women who have made major contributions to entertainment, business, sport, fashion, science and politics. Barbados-born Rihanna, 21, joined the list after taking a public stand on domestic violence and urging other women to follow her lead after being beaten by her ex-boyfriend, singer Chris Brown. reuters
