News Americas, NEW YORK, NY, Fri. Feb. 23, 2018: Barbadian singer, turned actress, entrepreneur and humanitarian has hit the big 3-0! The singer turned 30th on Feb. 20th and got a birthday wish from ex Chris Brown even as she celebrated at the Seagram Building in NYC.

Brown took to his Instagram page to wish the singer happy birthday, under a baby photo of RiRi. The post amassed more than 630,000 likes and plenty of angry comments, many of which referenced the night that Rihanna was sent to the hospital after being brutally assaulted by then-beau Brown in February 2009.

Rihanna, meanwhile, was photographed out celebrating her special day in the city on Tuesday evening at the Seagram Building in NYC after reportedly starting with an elegant black-tie dinner at The Grill, with close friends and family, followed by an after party in the Pool Restaurant with a performance by Toni Braxton. At the celebration, 30 magnums of Jay-Z’s prestige champagne Armand de Brignac Rosé and Blanc de Blancs was reportedly savored and guests included Paris Hilton and fiancé Chris Zylka.
