Celebrity-gossip.net: Returning to her homeland of Barbados, Rihanna was spotted at the State Funeral of the late Prime Minister David Thompson today (November 3). The “Take a Bow” songstress looked somber as she sat in the audience at the Kensington Oval while local paparazzi snuck a few pictures.

It seems the topic of death has been a late motif in Rihanna’s life, as she is also mourning the loss of her 11-year-old Broadway singer gal pal Shannon Tavarez. Tavarez passed away after losing her fight with acute myeloid leukemia. Ri-Ri tweeted, “Just got off of a plane ride and got horrible news that our little star Shannon Tavarez has lost her battle against leukemia! Way too soon… keep her family in your prayers.” [SOURCE]
