The post was not the first time the "Diamonds" singer expressed her thanks to God for the blessings she has received.

"To God be the Glory #MusicOfTheSun," tweeted Rihanna in August regarding the nine-year anniversary of her debut album Music of the Sun. "Thanks to all of you who've supported me throughout the years! I can't believe, already 9 yrs! I owe it to you man."

Now that she has a multi-year partnership with Puma, Rihanna will oversee the work on the brand's line of fitness and training clothes and shoes for women. The sportswear company said in a statement that the pop star "will work with Puma to design and customise classic Puma styles, as well as create new styles to add to the Puma product portfolio."

The CFDA's Fashion Icon laureate will also serve as a global brand ambassador for the apparel company, alongside famous sportsmen like Usain Bolt and Mario Balotelli.

Rihanna will officially start with her new role in January.

The 26-year-old artist told WWD, "I'm very excited about this. Whether it's apparel or shoes or accessories, I want to modernise it by highlighting the classics and going from things that make Puma Puma — give it a youthfulness, make it hip, basically [make it] Rihanna."

Puma's chief executive officer Bjorn Gulden is excited to have the pop star on board.

He said, "Signing Rihanna is a fantastic step for Puma. Her global profile, her charisma and individuality, her ambition – all these things make her a perfect ambassador for our brand."

"Rihanna was a natural choice for us. We're delighted to have her as a partner, and we're looking forward to what's to come," Gulden added.
