Rihanna celebrated her entrance to the dirty thirties on Tuesday night with a black tie dinner at a New York restaurant. Of course her boyfriend Hassan Jameel was in the building, but RiRi was joined by family and some very special friends for her rite of passage.
Page Six reported that the champagne was flowing as party goers dined on gnudi (a cheese-filled dumpling) with caviar and peppered filet mignon. The event was held at Landmark Rooms where guests enjoyed the four-course meal prepared by The Grill. Guests were reportedly decked out in tuxedos and gowns while Rihanna took center stage in some hot off the runway couture.

The “Wild Thoughts” singer celebrated with family and close friends including Paris Hilton and members of her Roc Nation family like executives Shawn Pecas and OG Juan Perez (who just celebrated his 50th birthday with Jay Z on Sunday night). Hilton took to her Instagram page to say that she had an amazing time at Rihanna’s party.
“Amazing time celebrating the 👑@badgalriri’s Birthday last night in #NYC!” Hilton wrote.

After dinner, the party moved out to the Landmark Pool where none other than Toni Braxton performed a six-song set. Reportedly, Rihanna is a huge fan of Toni’s and was over the moon that she would come and help her celebrate. Rihanna posted a picture on her Instagram page with a special message to the future Mrs. Birdman.
“Finally met my fav! Thank you for making my night so special!” Rihanna wrote. “I’ll never forgive you for looking this good at my party tho.”

Saudi billionaire boyfriend Jameel was said to be very attentive as he remained close by the singer’s side the entire evening. A source told Page Six that Rihanna is “really into her boyfriend Hassan” and that “they seemed to be really close all night.”

Rihanna has already claimed her thirties to be the best years of her life. She captioned an Instagram photo of herself holding a glass of champagne enjoying the well-wishing onlookers.
“Sturdiest night of all!!! Surrounded by the people I love the most!!!” Rihanna wrote. “30 is already my favorite era.”
