Memories are all that remain. testament to how energetic and addictive the performance was. However, there was something that surpassed this act –Rihanna’s sign language interpreter, Justina Miles. She took the song to a whole new level with her love for not just her job but also music and dance. Videos capturing some reactions from people with hearing disabilities say it all! Interesting what doing one’s job with passion can achieve.
