Stop everything you're doing because Rihanna, Issa Rae and Childish Gambino are collaborating together for the first time in just a few weeks and we're too excited to do any work right now.
This afternoon, RiRi announced in a statement to Instagram that she was joining forces with the Insecure star and 'This Is America' singer for the fourth annual Diamond Ball fundraising gala benefitting the Clara Lionel Foundation.
'We are honoured and grateful to have them help us celebrate the Clara Lionel Foundation this year,' the singer-turned-beauty mogul said in the post.
Rae will host the event while Childish Gambino - known otherwise in Hollywood as Donald Glover - will be the gala's guest performer.
So excited to announce that my sis @issarae is hosting this year’s #DiamondBall in exactly one month!! AND @childishgambino is closing out the night with a special performance! SEPT. 13. NYC. Find out how you can attend at 2018diamondball.com 💎 @claralionelfdn

If you don't know, Rihanna launched the foundation in 2012 in honour of her grandparents to improve health, education, arts and culture around the world.
Last year's event - attended by Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Leonardo DiCaprio - was hosted by comedian Dave Chappelle and featured musical guests Kendrick Lamar and Calvin Harris. PEOPLE reports guests raised a staggering £3.9 million to support the foundation’s programme so let's just say this gala is a big deal.
This year, Global Citizen’s CEO Hugh Evans will receive the Diamond Ball Award for his humanitarian work, according to Pitchfork.
We hope this is just the beginning of these three working together.
