Rihanna was the queen of the carnival, participating in the Kadooment Day parade in her native Barbados. For the grand finale of the Crop Over celebration, the singer partied in the streets wearing a custom Zulu International Mockingjay costume, sipped on rum from a sparkly cup, and captured it all on her GoPro.
