Jay-Z & Rihanna Gift Flowers To Viral Senior Citizens For TikTok Of Halftime Show

by

Jay-Z & Rihanna just sent residents of Arcadia Senior Living flowers after their TikTok rendition of her Super Bowl halftime show went viral. In fact, the video has over 30 million views, what do you mean you haven’t seen it on your page? Regardless, the video shows a group of senior citizens dressed in red and white, mimicking RiRi’s aesthetic for her show. Overall, media from everywhere picked up the news, from The Today Show to UK outlets. What’s more is that Hov, who helped organize the show, sent them a special gift for their wholesome video.

“There’s 100 of them,” Arcadia Senior Living resident Sue Evans remarked on NBC News 40. “And they’re from Jay-Z. My granddaughter was worried and she told her mother- ‘I hope she knows who Jay-Z is!’” On the other hand, many interviewed residents spoke on how the viral moment’s affected their day-to-day. “My grandchildren and I watched and there were flips and flops and I was standing there thinking wow I wish I could do that. And then i did do that,” said resident Dora Martin.

“I went to the doctor the other day. The nurses, as soon as I walked in there, knew who I was,” she continued. Also, she thanked Jay for his kind gesture. “I thought that was wonderful, very nice of him!” It seems one of hip-hop’s busiest figures is still tapped into how people connect to his craft. “We thought about pressing them in a book. But we haven’t got a big enough book,” resident Ora Rampenthal added. Meanwhile, Evans said that their TikTok account (with 113,000 followers and counting) goes deeper than just a viral moment.

“I hope they see that getting old and living in a facility is not all bad like we used to think it was,” she stated. While people reacted in a lot of different ways to Rihanna’s show, this is another level. Still, the world’s probably a bit more wholesome for it right now. Regardless, check out Arcadia’s rendition here and stay posted on HNHH for the latest on Jay-Z and Rihanna.

Rihanna’s Son Looks Adorable In New Photos: “He Found Out His Sibling Is Going To The Oscars”

by

Rihanna’s Super Bowl Halftime Show last month was everything fans expected. Many thought the 35-year-old would announce her long-awaited follow-up to 2016’s ANTI after her return to the stage. Instead, she shocked the world by revealing that she’s with child once again, less than a year after the birth of her and A$AP Rocky’s baby boy.

In the time since the NFL Championship, fans of the Bad Gal have been eagerly waiting for updates on her pregnancy, her son, and her music career. She’s been showing off her budding bump here and there in stylish outfits, and on Sunday (March 5), she gave an update on her little one who’s already Earthside, as well as her next big performance. As you may have heard, Rihanna will be performing her “Lift Me Up” song from the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack at the upcoming Oscars, and her baby boy was less than pleased to find out he’s not invited.

Rihanna Shows Off Her Baby Boy

“My son when he found out his sibling is going to the Oscars and not him,” she wrote in her Instagram caption. In the first selection from her carousel, we see the little one pouting and shedding tears in his playpen while looking up at the camera. “Swipe for a tb of my fat man,” the Barbadian singer added, encouraging followers to look at more content of her family life. In the video, we see the baby, looking much younger, babbling as he watches Rihanna on the screen.

In the final photo, his chunky arm will certainly melt your heart as mother and son watch what appears to be the “Lift Me Up” music video together. Though we still haven’t found out his name, fans of the Fenty Beauty founder are more than happy to gush over the adorable photos she shares. As her second pregnancy continues, many are hoping we’ll see similar maternity serves to the bold ones Rihanna stepped out in last time she was with child.

Much like the last time she was expecting, RiRi has kept many details regarding her second child under wraps. Since she’s already welcomed a son, it’s been said (even by her father, Ronald Fenty), that she’s hoping for a girl this time around. Let us know if you’re excited about the “Desperado” singer’s Oscars performance in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Damson Idris Failed When He Hit On Rihanna

by

He posed in her Savage X Fenty show, but Damson Idris first met Rihanna years ago. The Snowfall actor has been climbing Hollywood’s ranks and is slated as the next British actor to take over. He’s been commanding attention on and off-screen, especially since he and girlfriend Lori Harvey went public. Before the pair became Instagram Official, Idris was another single young star in Hollywood looking for romance. In a sit down with Elle, Idris recalled once running into Rihanna and attempting to sweep the Fenty mogul off her feet.

The actor was asked to detail the first time he worked with Ri. Instead, he decided to share the tale of their introduction. “It was at a party that I’m probably never going to be invited to after I tell this story,” Idris joked. “She was at the bar. And I was like, ‘This is my moment.’ And I walked up to the bar with my best James Bond impersonation. ‘Hi, I’m Damson, I’m Damson Idris. Lovely to meet you. You look fantastic today.’”

Rihanna Shoots Him Down

He thought he was giving his most sophisticated approach, and while Rihanna was polite, she wasn’t as responsive as Idris hoped. “And then she was kind of giving me one-worded answers. Like, get out of here, you freak. And then I said, ‘How come, as I’m speaking to you, it’s like you think I’m up to something?’ And she was like, ‘Because you are.’ Yeah.”

He can laugh about it all now, but then, Damson was quite embarrassed. However, it didn’t keep him from eventually working with the superstar singer. Rihanna must not have been too put off by Idris’s failed attempt at flirting because she and her team eventually hired him. “Fast forward. Savage Fenty. Love you, Rihanna. Full-circle moment.”

Damson Idris’s Leading Lady

These days, Idris isnn’t worried about any woman other than Lori Harvey. For months, there were rumors that these two were privately dating. They emerged on Instagram to reveal their romance, and they’ve been slowly sharing more of their relationship with the world. For Valentine’s Day, the happy couple enjoyed a candlelit dinner surrounded by red roses. They uploaded a video of their special moment while kissing and cuddling for the camera. Watch Damson Idris share his Rihanna tale above.

Rihanna & A$AP Rocky Balance Work & Parenthood At Photoshoot: WATCH

by

She’s a pregnant mom on the go these days, but nothing is slowing down Rihanna. The singer has been in a flurry as this season is back-to-back performances. After preparing for her epic Super Bowl halftime show, Rihanna is now gearing up to take to the Academy Awards stage. She’s reportedly set to perform “Lift Me Up” from the latest Black Panther soundtrack, but ahead of the next show, behind-the-scenes footage of Ri, A$AP Rocky, and their baby boy was shared.

Recently, the superstar singer posed on the cover of British Vogue with her little one. At the time, Rihanna says she was unaware she was pregnant with her second child. That news became the big reveal at the halftime show, and now, fans are getting a closer look at how Ri and Rocky are as famous parents on the go. British Vogue shared a brief video showing the mom and dad during Ri’s photoshoot for the magazine.

Rihanna Explains “Legendary” Motherhood

Rihanna detailed what it’s been like as a first-time mom. “Oh, my God, it’s legendary,” she told the outlet. “It’s everything. You really don’t remember life before, that’s the craziest thing ever. You literally try to remember it – and there are photos of my life before – but the feeling, the desires, the things that you enjoy, everything, you just don’t identify with it because you don’t even allow yourself mentally to get that far, because it doesn’t matter.”

Fans have speculated about Rihanna as a mother and what her home life must be like. There have been guesses about a house full of nannies or help at every corner. While we’re sure Ri has all the aid she needs, she explained to British Vogue what it was like following birth. She called the process beautiful but admitted that the concept messed with her head. “Essentially, from one person, I became two,” said the singer.

Family Of 3, Soon Family Of 4

Rihanna added, “You walk into the hospital as a couple and leave as a family of three. It’s nuts. And oh, my gosh, those first days are insane. You don’t sleep. At all. Not even if you wanted to. We came home, cold turkey, had no one. It was just us as parents and our baby. Man, you’re a zombie for the most part.” Check out the behind-the-scenes footage of A$AP Rocky, Rihanna, and their mini-me above.
