Rihanna is ready for an end to gun violence. She shared her opinion on Tuesday, December 26, after her cousin Tavon Kaiseen Alleyne was killed on Christmas evening, according to local police in Barbados, Rihanna’s home country.
Rihanna confirmed she was with Alleyne just hours before his death, writing on Instagram, “RIP cousin... can't believe it was just last night that I held you in my arms! Never thought that would be the last time I felt the warmth in your body!!! Love you always man!” Rihanna's powerful statement was accompanied by a series of sweet photos of the two.
Following her thoughtful tribute, she called for change, adding to the caption, “#Endgunviolence.” Rihanna’s mournful demand makes sense, as 21-year-old Alleyne was reportedly shot multiple times near his own home by an unknown assailant, who then fled the scene. Alleyne later died from his injuries and police continue to investigate the fatal crime. |
