New BFFs Rihanna and Prince Harry got an HIV test together

There's no better way to honor World AIDS Day then getting an HIV test with your new best friend in your home country.

Prince Harry met up with Barbados royalty Rihanna while touring the Caribbean, and in between laughing, the two aristocrats took time to get tested for HIV together to show the ease of the process.

Rihanna offered up her tattoo-free hand for the cause, and traded remarks with the prince while getting tested in front of flashing cameras. According to a statement from Kensington Palace made to Daily Mail, the prince convinced Rihanna to join him just the night before.

"They spoke after he had given his speech. They spoke for about 15 minutes," the Daily Mail reported. "She was very happy to do it. She has had people in her life that she has known who have died from AIDS. She said this is important and she wanted to do this."

"Oh, that was not bad! You made it seem like it would hurt. It's not as painful as you said this morning," RiRi exclaimed to her new best friend before being declared negative.

While it might have been her first go-round, this isn't the first time Prince Harry has demonstrated the ease of which one can be tested for the virus.

In July, he streamed himself getting tested on Facebook Live to promote the importance of HIV prevention.

"Whether you're a man, woman, gay, straight, black, white, even ginger; why wouldn't you come in and get a test?" the prince said in the stream.

Prince Harry has been vocal about HIV awareness—and the "risk for complacency"—for some time now. In a speech at the 2016 International AIDS conference, he called upon young leaders to step up to the plate.

"It is time for us to step up to make sure no young person feels any shame in asking for an HIV test," he said. "It is time for us to step up and acknowledge that stigma and discrimination still act as the greatest barrier to us defeating this disease once and for all."
