    Rihanna & Justin Chambers Fight Leukemia
    Posted by on 4:11pm in

    Rihanna and Grey’s Anatomy star Justin Chambers are stepping up to help a 26-year-old winter Olympic hopeful find a life-saving donor match. Seun Adebiyi, a Nigerian Yale Law School Graduate was training for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games when he was diagnosed with Leukemia.

    When Rihanna, who made a public plea last year to help 6-year-old Jasmina Anema find a match, received a letter from Seun, she was so moved by his plight that she joined his mission to recruit 10,000 donors with DKMS, the world’s largest bone marrow donor center.

    “Leukemia interrupted Seun’s dream of being the first Nigerian in the Winter Olympics. But together we can help him make his dream come true! We need to find him a bone marrow donor! Please sign up with DKMS,” said Rihanna.

    • vivienne

      Nobody is trying to make this about Rihanna. She didn’t have to do anything. When she got his letter, she could have easily trashed it. But, she chose to help. I have a lot of respect for celebrities that use their fame to do things like this. People are just saying how nice it was of her to do that.

      And, no you won’t see this on blogs b/c it doesn’t make her look bad.

    • Lovezenobia

      Thank God for people like rihanna. I realy hope and pray with all my heart this this handsome and talent youngman find a match so he can carry out his dreams.

    • Sherrick

      I honestly hope that he gets a donor in time! If he can get better and be in remission, he can still get to his dream! But first they have to find a donor!

    • NickeyRockstar

      This is why I love Rihanna. I can tell she is a genuinely nice person. I hope he (Seun) finds a donor in time. God Bless.
