Rihanna's new video is a much more personal look at the singer than some of her past videos

Rihanna released her latest video for her single “Cheers (Drink to That)” late Thursday.

The video for the song, which samples Avril Lavigne's "I'm With You," has guest appearances from Lavigne, Kanye West and Jay-Z. The three artists help Rihanna toast the weekend.

The concept of the video is a day in the life of Rihanna. It switches back and forth from her live performances to candid moments in Barbados with family and friends, and backstage moments. It also showcases her fans’ dedication.

Kanye West and Jay-Z make their cameos during the live performances, while Avril Lavigne can be seen partying in the video.

By the end Rihanna yells, “Rihanna Navy,” which she calls her fans. She sent a special message to her Navy upon the release of the video:

“CHEERS... U like??? #drinktothat #RihannaNavy I love yall forever!!!!! Keep making me proud!” she wrote.
