Rihanna is knocked up. She is with child. She is pregnant as hell. And she still hasn?t said anything about it on social media! That?s cracking me up. She arranged for a friendly ?paparazzo? to photograph her and her bump, alongside A$AP Rocky, and then the photographer (Miles Diggs) released the photos on Monday. Rihanna hasn?t said ?peeps, I?m preg? on Twitter or anything. Still, People Magazine has run two separate exclusives about how Rihanna and Rocky are the real deal and how he really did the most to win her heart and knock her up. Some highlights:
Rihanna is over the moon: ?Having a baby is something she was never focused on, but being with Rocky opened her up to the idea. She couldnt be happier and is so excited to be a mom. Shes loving all the changes to her body during pregnancy and has always celebrated pregnant women in her runway shows for Fenty. Everything Rihanna does, she does it her own way on her own time table, and having a baby is no different. Theyre just like any other pair of parents-to-be. Yes, they happen to be famous but theyre just the cutest, giddiest young couple thats expecting kids.
Rocky adores her: Speaking of their relationship, the source says the rapper has doted on [Rihanna] from the very beginning? A lot of guys have tried to sweep her off her feet, but Rocky actually managed to do it. Hes over-the-top romantic and sends her rooms full of flowers all the time. Shes never felt this way before and this relationship has changed her.
Rocky & Rihanna live together: A second insider says the couple live together now and seem beyond happy and that their friends are excited too about the pregnancy. Everyone is happy its all working out. They will be great parents, adds the source.
Rihanna was worth waiting for: According to the source, at the start of their relationship ? which PEOPLE confirmed in November 2020 ? each knew and respected the other through music, their collaboration and their other work. It has grown from there. He admired her and was even awed by her. He was eager to start a relationship and felt she was worth waiting for.
They?re goofy: They always have fun together, the first source says. They joke and act goofy. They enjoy life and like to travel. They love being together and are the loves of each others lives.
[From People Magazine]
I don?t know why People Magazine insists that they only started up in November 2020. They were together for most of 2020!! Rocky even talked about how they decided to go on road trips together during the early days of the pandemic, just the two of them, driving and sight-seeing and spending time together. As for this: ?Having a baby is something she was never focused on, but being with Rocky opened her up to the idea? again, Rihanna has been thinking about babies for years now!! She would bring it up constantly in interviews. She?s been in a nesting, motherly mood for a good four years. She just had to find the right guy, and she found him (or something). And yes, I do believe they?re goofy as hell.

When I saw Rihanna?s name trending, my first thought was along the lines of ?I bet Rihanna stans are complaining about no new album again,? because that?s basically the only reason Rihanna trends these days: her fans begging and pleading with her to release new music. Rihanna DGAF about any of that though and she hasn?t for years. Rihanna started seeing A$AP Rocky just before the start of the pandemic, and they?ve been loved up for two full years now. And now? she?s pregnant! It?s really happening, there are photos of her ?bump reveal? and even People Magazine confirmed the news:
Rihanna has babies on the brain! The Diamonds singer and fashion mogul, 33, is pregnant, expecting her first baby with rapper A$AP Rocky.
The couple was photographed out in New York City over the weekend, where Rihanna debuted her baby bump while wearing a long Pink jacket. Her oversized outerwear was unbuttoned at the bottom to reveal her growing bump adorned in a gold cross with colorful jewels.
In one of the sweet photos, which were snapped in A$AP Rockys hometown of Harlem, the rapper kisses the soon-to-be mom on her forehead as they enjoy a snowy walk outdoors.

When I told CB, her first thought was what the baby?s sign will be. Rihanna is a Pisces, and given her bump? she?s probably four months along or so, that would be my guess. Perhaps a Cancer or a Leo baby? It would make perfect sense to me for Rihanna to have a Leo kid. Anyway, congrats to her and congrats to Rocky as well. Rihanna has clearly been thinking about babies a lot in recent years and I?m happy that she found someone who was up for it.

B*tch Better Have My Money became an anthem about getting paid what we are worth. However, it seems the song was prophetic for Rihanna. Forbes announced recently that Rihanna is now a billionaire and the wealthiest female musician. Rihanna is now ranked second to Oprah in wealth held by a woman entertainer. Unlike Oprah, who gained most of her wealth from syndicating her show, Rihannas grew to billionaire status because of her 50% owner stake in Fenty Beauty and her Fenty X Savage lingerie line. In case you are wondering, Rihanna is now worth $1.7 billion. When asked about her billionaire status, Rihanna said, God is good, and kept it moving. A few highlights from Entertainment Tonight:
Fenty Beauty, which Forbes confirms Rihanna owns 50% of, makes up $1.4 billion of the moguls fortune, which is incredibly impressive since she only launched the brand in 2017. But its not surprising considering how popular the innovative beauty brand has become. When Rihanna launched Fenty Beauty, she changed the beauty game forever by debuting an unprecedented foundation line that featured 40 foundation shades for people of all color. The line was expanded to 50 foundation shades and 50 concealer colors by 2019.
And now, with the inclusive makeup collection having expanded into skincare, its not just the women Rihanna is targeting. She wanted to make sure her Fenty Skin line not only worked for all skin tones and types, but that it was also gender-neutral, so she called up friends like A$AP Rocky and Lil Nas X to star in the campaign shoot.
I wanted men to be represented because this skincare line is gender-neutral, she told ET. I want it to be for everyone, so you dont have men scared to use skincare. They think its a feminine thing, they think its just for girls, and I dont like that idea. We all have skin, we all wear skin, so I knew we needed that male representation in the campaign.
Rihanna added, We want these products to work for all skin types and, of course, all skin tones. I want these things to be different from anything that is on the market. I want it to be simple. I want it to be accessible, but still with the high level of ingredients that some of these other brands do but theyre so expensive.
On Thursday, the 33-year-old mogul was spotted by paparazzi while stepping out and asked what her newly revealed billionaire status means to her. God is good, she humbly declared before going on her way.
The rest of Rihannas fortune comes from her stake in her lingerie company, Savage x Fenty, worth an estimated $270 million, and her earnings as a chart-topping musician and actress. Back in February, it was announced that the A-list stars lingerie and loungewear brand had reached a $1 billion valuation in lingerie equity, with Forbes estimating that it would be the global lingerie market leader by 2025.
[From Entertainment Tonight]
I am so damn proud of Rihanna. She has come such a long way. Rihanna is now that bad b*tch calling the shots and I am here for it. I know everyone has been pressuring her to make a new album because they want new music. But I have been saying for the longest that Rihanna is busy building an empire and music was secondary. It would seem that I was correct. Its sweet that Rihanna said, God is good, and maybe that is true but Rihanna cannot discount not only her hard work but her god given vision and ingenuity. I hope Rihanna is out celebrating somewhere with folks who love her. The other thing I love about Rihanna is that she has become more of a philanthropist and activist. Hopefully Rihanna will start picking better men to build her empire with.

After moving to London for a few years, it seems like Rihanna is back in LA somewhat permanently? At the very least, she?s been in LA for what feels like most of 2021. We know that because she steps out with some regularity, usually role modeling good mask-wearing behavior, as she goes out to dinner or hangs out with friends. For a while, Rihanna had been rocking the same long-hair look. But then in the beginning of May, suddenly Rihanna cut it all off!! We?re back in a Rihanna Pixie Era!
Rihanna stepped out last night in LA. She went to Nobu with friends and she looked pretty amazing. She?s lost weight over the past year, right? For a while, she seemed to embrace a curvier aesthetic and the added weight looked amazing on her. But after her split with Hassan Jameel in January 2020, she moved away from London and started losing weight. And now she?s back to the pixie too, which she hasn?t had in many, many years. It feels like Rihanna is one of those celebrities who will be especially wild post-pandemic? She?s going to have some FUN this summer. I wonder who?s on her 2021 hit list. (Also: look at her little purse!!!)
Here?s a photo from May 5th, when we got the first look at her pixie. The pandemic and mask-wearing in general has finally broken Rihanna of her habit of stealing wine glasses from restaurants and leaving dinner with a to-go drink.

When Rihanna launched her cosmetics brand Fenty Beauty three years ago, she was able to create inclusivity in an industry that always felt out of reach for WOC, who spend a lot of their coin on beauty products. Youd think cosmetics giants would get a clue and make products for WOC. But they dont, so Rihanna capitalized on their lack of urgency and ingenuity.
Rihanna is now seeking to fill another ignored market. She is collaborating with A$AP Rocky for Fenty Skin in what she hopes will bring men to the beauty table. She said that men like to take care of their skin but feel obligated to only use products made exclusively for men. In a video released by Vogues Youtube channel, Rihanna does a Q&A with A$AP where she discusses who inspired her beauty journey and what shed like to see done differently in the beauty and cosmetics industries. Here are some quotes from the interview via Just Jared:
?I wish the leaders of the beauty industry were a more diverse set of pioneers who have not just experienced the culture but have experienced a negligence in the industry whether it comes to their skin tone or skin type. I feel like there?s so many voids to be filled and we will only know that by the pioneers that have experienced those voids, and the lack of their representation in the industry,? she said.
?I wish it was more versatility, diversity, obviously you know. I think it?s kinda trying to evolve especially with a person like yourself. But I do wish that there was way more versatility,? he agreed.
?Men love their skin and they take care of it but they feel obligated almost to only use products that are for men because anything beyond that seems like it?s just too feminine,? Rihanna said.
She also said everything she knows about skincare she learned from her mother: ?My entire concept of beauty came from her. I wanted to dress like her. I wanted to look like her. I wanted to do my hair like her. I wanted to do my makeup like her.?
[From Vogue via Just Jared]
So far the reviews I have read about Fenty Skin makes we want to try it. I have been loving everything that Rihanna has done these last few years. The fact that she is turning the tables yet again and bringing men in is a game-changer. When I used to work for Mac Cosmetics, I would always try to get the men who came in with their girlfriends to try our skin care line. Like Rihanna, I feel it is important for men to take care of their skin as well. My gay guy friends had skin care covered. To them it was self-care but straight cis men always felt uncomfortable when talking about taking care of their skin needs.
What I love about having A$AP Rocky as a spokesxmodel is that he does things to bend our idea of masculinity. In the video he has his nails painted with several of them sporting nail art and yet there is nothing feminine about him. His skin is immaculate as well. Perhaps he can push the message that skin care is not just for girls and your masculinity wont be called into question because you like to take care of your skin. Theres also the added bonus that ladies love a man with great skin and a beautiful smile.
Heres the video!

Last week, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey announced that he would donate $1 BILLION of his equity to fund coronavirus relief. That?s just about one-quarter of his net worth. It?s notable because so many billions are donating to charity, but they?re only donating $1 million here or there. And sorry not sorry, that sh-t doesn?t cut it. It?s actually offensive, and I?m 100% into cyberbullying billionaires into donating bigger chunks of their net worth to charity. So, props to Jack and all that. One of his first moves was to allocate $2.1 million to the Mayor?s Fund of Los Angeles, specifically to support the victims of domestic violence (domestic violence calls & reports have spiked in the lockdown). Rihanna and Jack did matching-funds:
Rihanna and Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter and Square, are teaming up to help victims of domestic violence in Los Angeles affected by the stay-at-home order during the coronavirus pandemic. Rihanna?s Clara Lionel Foundation (CLF) and Dorsey on Thursday announced a joint grant to the Mayor?s Fund for Los Angeles to address the current crisis among domestic violence victims in the city. CLF and Dorsey are each committing $2.1 million for a total of $4.2 million.
According to the announcement, while CLF and Dorsey have launched the effort first in L.A., ?victims of domestic violence exist all across the world, so this is just the beginning.?
Last week, CLF and Jay-Z?s Shawn Carter Foundation (SCF) announced $2 million in grants to COVID-19 response efforts to support undocumented workers, the children of front-line health workers and first responders, and incarcerated, elderly and homeless populations in New York City and Los Angeles. And in March, CLF announced $5 million in grants to on-the-ground partners working on the front lines of the coronavirus response to protect and prepare vulnerable and marginalized communities in the U.S., Caribbean and in Africa.

Rihanna is so fking awesome. It would be easy for her expected, even to use her charitable foundation as some tax shelter which really doesn?t do much. But no, she raises millions and she?s giving away millions. Which is probably why she was NOT in the mood when someone asked her about that new album:
Rihanna is done discussing her highly-anticipated ninth album, especially while attempting to help those who have been affected by coronavirus. The songstress, 32, snapped on fans during an Instagram Live session who repeatedly asked when she plans to release the album, commonly referred to as ?R9?, telling her loyal #RihannaNavy that she currently has bigger fish to fry, doing her part to help those affected by COVID-19.
?If one of y?all motherf?kers ask me about the album one more time when I?m tryna save the world, unlike y?all president?.on sight!? exclaimed the star, Daily Mail reports.
[From Page Six]
?Unlike y?all president? but Trump doesn?t have a highly-anticipated album just sitting there, nearly or entirely completed! But I get her point. The Army needs to stop asking about the album for a few months, Rihanna?s doing other sh-t.

A few weeks ago, we heard that Rihanna and Hassan Jameel were dunzo after dating for three years or so. I felt like Rihanna matured a lot with Hassan she mostly lived in London, she kept her drama mostly quiet, she built and then nurtured her expanding empire. But Hassan was out of there, and I kind of suspect that the split happened late last year, probably November or early December. My guess is that Rihanna has been single for a few months. And? it?s not even her fault, I think men just start throwing themselves at her as soon as they find out she?s single. I bet Drake threw himself at her. I bet A$AP Rocky did too. And she chose Rocky apparently:
Rihanna has apparently found love in a hopeless place. Just weeks after the Fenty Beauty founder, 31, split from longtime billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel, she?s moved on with rapper A$AP Rocky, The Sun reported. The duo was reportedly spotted getting close in New York City this month.
?They shared a hotel suite during that trip in New York,? a source told the outlet. ?However, Rihanna is reluctant to put a label on it as it?s so soon after Hassan. They?re really enjoying each other?s company and taking things easy as it?s still early days.? The source added, ?It?s really casual between them and she?s not thinking about whether there?s a future with Rocky. She?s a newly single girl having fun.?
[From Page Six]
Page Six mentioned that Rihanna and Rocky were maybe hooking up in 2013, and if that?s true (who knows), then maybe Rocky is her in-between-relationships Fun Time Guy. They?re friends, and when they?re both single, they have some fun together and it never gets serious. Hell, if I was Rihanna, I would keep a dozen Fun Time Guys on call. So, yeah, I believe Rocky and Rihanna are probably doing *something* but I doubt it?s serious. Who will Rihanna?s next Real Boyfriend be? Brad Pitt? God, I hope not.

Here are some photos of Rihanna and A$AP Rocky at the Fashion Awards in London last month. Knowing what we know now about Rihanna?s split with Hassan Jameel, I?m looking at these photos differently. Is it possible that Rihanna and Hassan had recently broken up in late November or early December, and Rih posed with Rocky as a fk you to Hassan, or to make him jealous? And don?t even start Rihanna would TOTALLY do that. I love her, but she?s petty and she would totally do sexy poses with a dude-friend to make an ex jealous. According to TMZ, Rihanna did hang out with Rocky just a few days ago, right as her split with Hassan was being reported:
Rihanna is all smiles after news broke of her breakup with her billionaire businessman BF putting on a happy face alongside A$AP Rocky, whos been a loyal companion these days. RiRi and Rocky were hanging out backstage Friday during the 2020 Yams Day benefit concert in Brooklyn, where the A$AP Mob performed for the fifth annual charity event which kicks cash to the Always Strive and Prosper Foundation to help fight substance abuse.
The two superstars seemed pretty chummy, laughing it up and looking super caj with a backdrop of artwork behind em. At first glance, youd think theres nothing to this. However, theres been some speculation recently that something more could be afoot here. Fact is, Rihannas been around A$AP quite a bit over the past few months or so which seems to have gone somewhat under the radar. She went to Sweden last month to check out his comeback show granted, she wasnt seen in his company. And you cant ignore Rihanna chillin with A$AP and the Mob back in October, where it looks like she was partaking in a rap battle, with Rocky right by here side. He even brings her in a for a quick side hug at one point, and she looks tight with him and the crew.
[From TMZ]
Which would be interesting all on its own, but apparently Rihanna was ALSO seen hanging out close to Drake at the same Yams Day 2020 concert:
Rihanna and Drake were spotted in close proximity to each other at Yams Day 2020 ? a concert honoring the late A$AP Mob member A$AP Yams ? on Friday. Fans captured a video that shows the exes standing near each other in the crowd as they took in one of the performances. It?s unclear whether the pair arrived together or spoke at the event, but it?s likely they crossed paths because they were only a few feet away from each other. Reps for Drake and Rihanna did not immediately return our requests for comment.
[From Page Six]
I?m including the short video below they aren?t really interacting, but they?re standing close enough to each other where I would assume that spoke and stuff. So, what do you think? Is Rihanna spending time with Rocky, Drake, both or none of the above? My guess is that she and Rocky would have more to say to each other, but Rihanna has also been known to backslide. Some of Rihanna?s fans are worried about Drake. Like, they?re worried that if she gives Drake another chance, it will be even messier than it was the last time (which was an epic mess).

I still remember that sleepy summer day in June 2017 when the photos of Rihanna and Hassan Jameel came out. Most of us didn?t know Hassan?s name at that point and Rihanna?s Navy (her stans) were freaking out everywhere. ?Rihanna Has a Man? was legitimately trending on Twitter that day and evening and I remember MSNBC?s Chris Hayes (a member of Rih?s Navy) trying to find out Hassan?s identity. It was all so much fun. In the years since then, Rihanna moved full time to London and she and Hassan had a quiet and very serious relationship. There was some talk of pregnancy and/or marriage. I really believed it was heading in that direction too. Alas, they?re over.
She found love ? but it didn?t last. Rihanna and Hassan Jameel, her boyfriend of nearly three years, have split, a source tells Us Weekly exclusively. The singer and the businessman, both 31, were first linked in June 2017. However, a source told Us weeks later that the duo had ?been hooking up for a few months.?
The pair kept their relationship mostly private, but Rihanna opened up about the romance in a June 2019 profile with Interview magazine. She admitted at the time that she was ?of course? in love with Jameel, but she hesitated to nail down marriage plans. ?Only God knows that, girl,? she said. ?We plan and God laughs, right??
[From Us Weekly]
TMZ confirmed the split as well, but no one has any details about who did what and why. Do you think this is a case of ?Rihanna can?t be tied down, but nice try, Hassan?? Or is it more like ?in the end, they didn?t want the same things?? I don?t know. Rihanna has indicated in many interviews over the past year or so that she was deeply in love with Hassan and she was open to getting married, at least that?s how it seemed to me. Also: do you think this is why she didn?t put an album out by the end of 2019? She was too heartbroken and sad-sack about her breakup? Hm.

Here are some photos of Rihanna last week at an event to celebrate Rihanna by Rihanna, a book of photographs of Rihanna and words by Rihanna. I think the book is mostly ?telling the story of Rihanna through photos.? Given that she?s one of the most photographed and photogenic women in the world, big surprise. Rihanna looked gorgeous at the event, of course. Her dress is Saint Laurent! She also looked? slimmed down. One month ago, people were convinced that Rihanna was pregnant because she truly seemed to have a ?bump? during her Diamond Ball. It didn?t look like a food baby, it looked like a baby bump had ?popped.? Well, it probably was just a food baby? During this event last week, Rihanna was asked about vague pregnancy rumors and her answer was so weird, I need everyone to parse it with me.
Rihanna called her Vogue cover unbelievable. When Carlos pointed out that this is her sixth time on the front, she shrieked, I know! I can?t believe that Anna Wintour wanted me on her cover, like, once, much less six times?.To see her be so supportive ? it?s great to see us supporting each other, and it?s always an honor. This cover might be Rihannas fave. Why? This is unlike any cover I have done with Vogue, she said. I am wearing my own stuff.
As far as Vogue asking her about pregnancy rumors, Rihanna said, A lot of women get very defensive. It?s personal, it?s our bodies, and of course it?s our time, and it?s not necessarily everyone?s dream to be a mom but it?s mine, so I?m fine. Anna just wants to know what the people want to know.
[From Extra]
?It?s personal, it?s our bodies, and of course it?s our time, and it?s not necessarily everyone?s dream to be a mom but it?s mine, so I?m fine.? On one side, she?s saying she?s okay with the speculation because she wants to be a mom and Anna Wintour is just asking the hard questions. On the other side, she seemed to insinuate that she IS pregnant? Or not? It?s not clear. But I promise I?ll stop speculating. Rihanna is a riddle.
