We knew that such an exciting arrival would be big news.
But it seems that Rihanna's new fashion show on Sky Living HD has made even more of an impression than her recent ink job…
With all the major UK papers - Daily Mail, Telegraph, The Sun and glossy mags Vogue and Marie Claire picking up the news, the word quickly went global and the Huffington Post and NYMag spread the joy across the US.
Even the usually acerbic Holy Moly got behind the show saying: "This is fantastic news for anyone who likes to wear Topshop stockings with a bikini, and fairly good news for everyone else." Miaow.
Here's a little sample of what Twitter had to say when our timelines became ablaze with the announcement.
@3am: "Congratulations on your new show @rihanna and @NicolaRoberts - massively exciting! bit.ly/wtvDQx"
@LaurenceTGreen: "In what sounds like the best twosome team-up of 2012, Nicola Roberts and Rihanna are getting together for a tv show!"
@Drizzy4Rihanna: "If Rihanna had a Reality tv show... That would be epic tbh! :)" (sic)
@StyleWatchMag: "Congrats to @rihanna who will be hosting a new reality fashion show! We have all the scoop on the series: ow.ly/8HMUG"
@MyFashionLife: "On MFL: Rihanna and Nicola Roberts team up to find hot new designing talent for Sky Living bit.ly/yFu5I7 #fashion"
The series will come exclusively to Sky Living HD in summer 2012. Here's how you can be a part of it.
