Savage X Fenty: Rihanna Steps Down As CEO After 5 Years

by

While the Navy isn’t exactly happy with the lack of new music we’ve heard from Rihanna since 2016’s ANTI, they’ve been able to forgive her thanks to her hard work in other industries. She shared impressive designs from LVMH’s Fenty brand for several years, and though that was shut down, she’s also given us Fenty Beauty, Skin, and her tantalizing Savage X Fenty lingerie collection which was launched back in 2018. Over the years we’ve seen Rihanna model countless pieces for us. That’s likely to continue down the road, however, on Friday (June 23), we found out that she’ll be stepping down as CEO.

The news comes as the Barbadian creative nears closer to welcoming her and ASAP Rocky’s second child together. Their firstborn, RZA, turned one in the spring, and Rihanna has spoken candidly about how special the experience of motherhood has been for her. With two little ones soon to be running around, it only makes sense that she wants to free up her schedule so she can witness as much of their growth as possible. According to Vogue, the Bad Gal has found a very capable person to step into her shoes.

Hillary Super, the former CEO of Anthropologie Group, has been tasked with the job. Of course, Rihanna won’t be stepping out of the picture entirely. Instead, she’ll take on the role of executive chair. “It’s been beautiful to see our vision for Savage X Fenty impact the industry at such an incredible magnitude over the last five years. This is just the beginning for us, and we’re going to continue to expand in ways that always connect with the consumer,” she shared in a statement.

Elsewhere in the world of fashion, Rihanna kept her streak of noteworthy maternity looks going with an appearance at Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton debut earlier this week. She and ASAP Rocky perfectly coordinated in denim outfits, and as per usual, her baby bump was on full display.

Hailie Jade Mathers Unveils “Just A Little Shady” Clothing Line Named After Her Podcast

by

Before she becomes a bride, Hailie Jade Mathers is making plenty of major business moves. Last summer, the social media starlet announced the debut of her Just a Little Shady podcast, which has since gone on to find success with her fans. Each episode finds Eminem’s daughter discussing updates from her own personal life, the world of pop culture, and of course, throwing in some shade along the way as she best learned from her famous father.

Now, nearly a year later, the 27-year-old is expanding her empire with the arrival of her first merch line. Last Friday (May 19), she dropped off an Instagram Reel providing some insight into the project, encouraging followers to check out her hard work on the internet show’s website. In the clip, viewers watch Mathers get ready for the day while revealing that her venture into the world of fashion has been unfolding “for like, almost a year at this point.”

Hailie Gets Ready to Drop Her First Merch Line

Speaking on what sets her products apart from others, the nepo baby explained, “[We] wanted to make sure that whatever we put out was not gonna only be super comfortable and cute but also could be worn as just a regular clothing line,” rather than focusing on a merch-like appearance as other podcasters do. Seeing as Hailie has admitted to being a “raging perfectionist,” it’s understandable why so much time went into creating her masterpiece.

As Page Six notes, Slim Shady’s eldest has designed hats, t-shirts, and sweatpants at an affordable price of $33 to $63. Options come in colours like tan, black, white, and cream, and are sure to be flattering on a range of skin tones and hair colours.
