In case you missed it, Rihanna was selected to be the new face for Gucci’s upcoming UNICEF campaign. The collection is called “Tattoo Heart” and will be offered as a special edition to the existing Gucci lineup of products. According to Frida Giannini, Rihanna was selected for the first UNICEF campaign because of her “strong personality” and also because she believed that “a musician and a beautiful woman was the perfect icon for the campaign.”
