London, June 19 :  Pop star Rihanna has landed here after delaying her trip for two weeks.

The delay prompted speculation about her health and that of her grandmother, who is battling cancer in a New York hospital.

But the 24-year-old quickly downplayed the drama, by posting on her Twitter page that she simply wanted to hang out with friends and family following a lengthy time away from home, reports contactmusic.com.

After spending time with her ailing grandmother Dolly Sunday, the singer took a plane and announcing her whereabouts she posted: "I am in London. I didn't wanna leave NY! I kept missing my flights."
