"Celebrity endorsements can be seen across industries, especially in regards to fashion and makeup. Sultry songstress Rihanna is no stranger to that. The Bajan r&amp;amp;b artist has had her name and image splattered across an array of products. Recently the star designed a furry pair of slippers called &amp;#039;Pool Slides&amp;#039; in collaboration with PUMA. The product was so popular it sold out in several stores across the globe and was reintroduced with new colorways. That&amp;#039;s not the only footwear she helped design; Rihanna took the price point up several notches when she collaborated with Manolo Blahnik on a sexy denim high-heel collection. Star power is an incredible selling feature for any brand or product looking to boost its sales. It&amp;#039;s exactly why so many Rihanna-branded items have flooded the market."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
