Jenna Ortega praised for pronouncing Rihanna's name and 'correcting 95% of us'

How do you pronounce Rihanna's name? Are you guilty of saying Ree-an-nah or Ree-awh-na?

You can watch a clip below:

Before announcing the winner, Ortega ran through some of the other artists nominated in the category, including Rihanna, who was up for her song 'Lift Me Up' from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

“I know, I’m very excited.”

Admitting they had been pronouncing the singer's name incorrectly the whole time, other fans also revealed they had been doing the same.

It turns out that Rihanna's name is pronounced Ree-an-nah, and not Ree-awh-na as some previously thought.

And Ri's make-up brand, Fenty Beauty, were loving the fact Ortega had pronounced it correctly, commenting on one video: “Miss Wednesday understood the assignment.”

Others were shocked they had been saying it wrong the whole time, with one person commenting: "I've been pronouncing it wrong my whole life?!??"

While another said: "Dang...so I've been saying her name wrong my whole life?!! I feel embarrassed now. I had NO idea that was how you correctly pronounce her name!"

And a third added: "Now everyone is gonna pronounce the way she said rihannas name after seeing this video."

Meanwhile a fourth commented: "Damn i always said ree-aw-nuh not ree-ah-nuh."

Others were adamant they had been saying it correctly the whole time, while a few people pointed out that, depending on where you live in the world, it's often pronounced differently.

Many Brits commented to say they already pronounced Rihanna's name the correct way, with a fifth adding: "In the uk we pronounce it the same as Jenna."

And a second added: "Pov everyone in britian already saying it right."

Rihanna herself has previously confirmed that this is the correct way of pronouncing her name, telling Showbiz Tonight that Ree-an-nah is right. The more you know, ay.

Have you been guilty of saying it wrong all this time? Do let us know!
