Entertainment Lifestyle World Rihanna, Mark Wahlberg And 18 Other Celebs Who Love To Vacation In Barbados Barbados Today06/01/202003.4K views (SOURCE: The Travel) -Rihanna definitely doesn’t have to go back to her home country of Barbados. In fact, nobody has to. But the uber-famous popstar returns her eastern Caribbean island because she loves it. And she’s not the only major star who flies down. Mark Wahlberg, Justin Bieber, and Oprah can all be spotted flying down in first-class. Or, more than likely, private. Even Andrew Llyod Webber has been seen down there. But maybe that’s because he wanted to escape all the negative press for the Cats movie. More than likely, Barbados attracts these people because it’s straight-up beautiful. It’s home to gorgeous cities like Bridgetown, a synagogue founded in 1654, plantation houses, cave formations, and phenomenal beaches. Without further ado, here are Rihanna, Mark Wahlberg, and 18 other celebs who love to vacation in Barbados. RIHANNA JETSKIS ALL THE WAY BACK TO BARBADOS… ACTUALLY, SHE FLIES PRIVATE… BUT WHATEVER Rihanna was born in Barbados, making her the biggest celebrity from the island. But instead of being “too big” for her roots, Rihanna often shares her love for it. Nearly every year, Rihanna returns to spend time with her family, stay at her property, and just spread the love like when she was apart of the Kadooment Day Parade in Bridgetown, Barbados. MARK WAHLBERG FLEXES EVERY CHANCE HE GETS ON THOSE BARBADOS BEACHES According to Just Jared, there’s seldom a year where The Departed and Ted star doesn’t take his family to Barbados.

Knowing Justin, we’re sure he gave them exactly what they wanted. LUDACRIS WAS ALL ABOUT THAT BARBADOS SUNSET AND NOW SO ARE WE Mega-celeb Ludacris made it out to North Point in Barbados in November 2017, according to Galuxsee.

Whether your religion is religion or whether it’s science and nature, chances are North Point will make you feel mighty close to it. OPRAH LISTENED TO RIHANNA AND FLEW DOWN TO BARBADOS FOR SOME GIRL TIME For an interview with Rihanna, legendary talk-show host and philanthropist Oprah Winfrey took a luxurious trip down to Barbados.

Unfortunately, the trip wasn’t all peaches and cream for the starlet. ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER DESERVED A FOOT-RUB IN BARBADOS AFTER ALL THAT CATS HATE Even though composer and playwright Andrew Llyod Webber isn’t responsible for the Cats adaptation, he must have felt some of the negative reactions. After all, he is responsible for the film’s music. According to Just Jared, the 71-year-old icon was spotted with his wife in Bridgetown, Barbados right after the film opened. NAOMI HARRIS CHANNELS HER INNER TIA DALMA IN BARBADOS There’s no doubt that Pirates of the Caribbean star Naomi Harris felt more connected to her witch character from the movies while hanging in Bridgetown, Barbados.
