Her nearest competitor is Taylor Swift, who is currently in second place, with 97.5 million units sold. Rihanna, meanwhile, is offering school pupils financial assistance through her Clara Lionel Foundation: "I don't think it's fair that children carry the burden of financial limitations at such a young age. We launched the CLF grants initiative this year. These are basic needs that these children don't have in these schools - something as simple as clean bathrooms. We want college graduates in our programme." Follow us: @Pressparty on Twitter / Pressparty on Facebook.
