Melissa Forde @mdollas11 - If you are part of Rihanna's Navy then you are all too familiar with this face. Melissa and Rihanna are a dynamic duo. You don't get one without the other, and more often than not she can be spotted in the background of Rih's most iconic flicks. So what are the perks of being a superstar's bestie? Travel around the world, attend the hottest awards shows and concerts, and become famous by association. MDollas by all means has her own thing going on though. She's a super cool photographer (check the hashtag #mtfphotography), she's done some modeling, plus she launched a dope bucket hat collection. (Photo: Melissa Forde via Instagram)

She's been working for Rihanna for some time now and is easily Rih's #2 girl after MDollas. And when Jenn got married this past year, both Rihanna and Melissa were bridesmaids. Here's a pic of the threesome, plus another friend, this past Halloween in all their Ninja Turtle glory. (Photo: 247PapsTV / Splash News)

Leandra Simome @leandrasimome - Rih's BFF, Leandra, got to experience the 2015 BET Awards front and center sandwiched between her girl and Meek Mill. That's true best friendship!

Henchmen - So maybe these aren't her real-life besties, but according to her video for "BBHMM," if Rihanna ever needed to kidnap someone and drag their body around town, these are the girls she'd call. Fun Fact: The singer found one of her henchmen while Instagram stalking, specifically the one who hit the hostage over the head with a bottle when the sheriff got a little too close.

Mylah Morales @mylahmorales & Ursula Stephen @ursulastephen - For a superstar like Rihanna who morphs for almost every photo shoot, music video, or performance, a glam squad is essential.
