Nigerian heiress Abimbola "Bim" Fernandez, who is set release her first single 'Let's Take It Naked', has revealed that she dreams of being a pop star like Rihanna.
The 24-year-old daughter of gemstone tycoon Antonio Deinde Fernandez admitted that her father is worth 8.7 billion dollars, but knows well that money can't buy a record deal, the New York Post reported.
However, the pop star wannabe added that she is making her own path and launching a music career, as tribute to her deceased mother, without her father's help.
Her first release, which is expected soon, is a flute-infused, bubble-gum dance-floor jam.
