Rihanna Quiets Pregnancy Rumors; Still Wants to Be a Girl Mom

Rihanna Billionaire 1

Girl moms always have a good vibe! Rihanna recently addressed pregnancy rumors and expressed her desire to have a daughter during an interview at the launch of her new brand, Fenty Hair. The “Cheers” artist, 36, clarified that while she most certainly is not currently pregnant, but is open to having more children. ICYMI and her partner, Harlem rapper A$AP Rocky, 35, have two sons, RZA, 2, and Riot, 10 months. Dope names!

When asked about wanting a daughter and being a girl mom, Rihanna joked, “Look how that turned out,” referring to her two sons. However, she added, “You know what, I hope so. I do. I’m not pregnant if that’s what you’re asking. I would definitely have more kids.”

While speaking with Extra, Rihanna noted the frequent questions about expanding her family. “Everybody is pushing. Look, if I ever get a daughter, I am going to show her so much footage—she’s been talked about forever,” she teased. She enthusiastically added, “Of course! A spicy little girl would be so fun.”

Here’s how Rihanna answered the question of motherhood expansion with Interview Magazine. She was asked how many more kids she wanted. “As many as God wants me to have,” she replied. She expressed a desire for more than two children, saying, “I would try for my girl. But of course, if it’s another boy, it’s another boy.”

Last month, Rocky celebrated RZA’s second birthday by sharing family photos on Instagram. The photos included candid moments of RZA and Riot laughing, playing, and enjoying a beach day with their parents. “HAPPIEST BIRTHDAY 2 MY 1st BORN BABY BOY RZA ❤,” Rocky captioned the post.

When talking about love, since that is supposed to matter in the whole family department, Rihanna also told Page Six in November that her bond with Rocky has deepened since becoming parents. “I love him differently as a dad. This is major, major…it’s a turn on,” she said. “It’s just like, wow. What a leader, what a great, patient loving…and my kids are obsessed with him.”

Whether Rihanna gets her wish of being a girl mom or is content with her beautiful family, more power to her and A$AP Rocky!

Yung Miami Praises Rihanna As Her Role Model, Fans Question The Comparison

Yung Miami caught some undue flack from the Internet recently, all for her aspirational goals to one day become one of the music industry’s billionaires. Moreover, she recently reacted to the launch of Rihanna’s new haircare line and remarked how this represents what she wants to do with her own career as far as scale and reach. “Who I aspire to be!!!! That bag & status different!!” the former City Girl shared on her Instagram Story, and in the comments section of the Instagram post covering this down below, you’ll see some skeptical and defensive reactions alike. “How can yall have anything negative to say about this?! Shes inspired!” one fan wrote, with another adding “Whew Chile…we got a ton of work to do! [crying-laughing emoji].”

Furthermore, most people who made fun of Yung Miami’s aspirations referred more heavily to her alleged involvement in the Diddy scandal. For those unaware, a lawsuit named her as someone allegedly hired as a “sex worker” by Sean Combs, and also included claims of drug trafficking, assault, abuse, and more. Of course, most of these claims are still unverified and unclear under a court of law, especially those relating to the Florida MC. Still, it’s definitely not a good look for someone who wants to be a mogul one day.

Regardless, Yung Miami is looking forward to what the rest of her career, brand partnerships, and business ventures bring, especially in this new, exciting chapter of her life. “I had to really get back in my bag,” she told Complex of the City Girls split with JT. “People had just been talking to me crazy… So just going through s**t really motivated me to get in the studio and make music. I think when the City Girls album [RAW] just dropped, and it didn’t do too well, and we was just trying to do our press run. The whole rollout of the album was just so bad because we was just in two different spaces.

“We older now, and she [JT] was doing her own thing,” Yung Miami continued. “She on the West Coast, I’m in Miami. I’m doing my own thing. And I felt like naturally, when she doing her own thing, it just worked for her. And when I’m doing my own thing, it worked for me. But when we get together as a group, it just wasn’t connecting. It just wasn’t working no more.”

Rihanna’s Latest Wardrobe Choice Has People Wondering If New Music Is Ever Coming

Rihanna has certainly been busy. Though it’s been over eight years since she released her last studio album, Anti, she definitely hasn’t been laying low. Outside of music, she has been killing the make-up game with her Fenty Beauty collection, laying down the laws of the bedroom with her Savage X Fenty intimates, and most recently, giving a spin at hair care with her newly announced Fenty Hair.

Additionally, she has been on mommy duty with her sons, RZA and Riot. All of these things considered, it’s a miracle if she’s had anytime to work on new music.

Still, fans are itching for a new album from Rihanna, and while a performance at the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show seemed to indicate that she hasn’t completely said goodbye to music. But since then, we’ve heard very little from Rihanna in regards to her long-awaited ninth studio album.

Earlier today (June 6), Rihanna was photographed in New York City wearing a shirt that read “I’m retired.” There was some text at the bottom which read “This is as dressed up as I get,” which was obscured by a bag she was carrying.

Nevertheless, fans have taken this as an indicator that we may never get new music from her.

“It’s giving expect no album,” said one Twitter user.

Though some fans believe she may be trolling. “She knowes just how to pmo,” said another Twitter user.

Another fan decided to accept our fate, saying “She is focused on building her business.”

At this point, only time can tell if we’ll ever get another Rihanna album.

Rihanna Terrifies Fans By Casually Teasing Her Retirement

Rihanna knows what she’s doing. She dropped a classic album in 2016 with Anti, and has kept fans on the hook ever since. The pop superstar has had two children, bolstered her fashion empire, and played the Super Bowl Halftime Show in this nearly decade-long drought. 2024 seemed as though it would be the end of the drought, but RiRi has fans thinking otherwise after she stepped out on June 6. She was seen wearing a graphic t-shirt, and the text on it provides a terrifying possibility for her Navy.

Rihanna was photographed in New York City. The full text on the t-shirt was obscured by her purse, but the main text was crystal clear: “I’m retired.” Fans did manage to find the exact shirt she was wearing on the internet, though. The text underneath allegedly reads: “This is as dressed up as I get.” It’s very much meant to be a tongue-in-cheek shirt, not to be taken seriously, but given who is wearing it, and how long its been since her last album, fans were more stressed than usual. “Welp she never doing music again,” one distraught X user wrote. “I don’t feel good,” another wrote. “She better be joking.” Some fans took the stance that Rihanna is actually teasing the title of her upcoming album, which would be I’m Retired.

Rihanna Has Been Teasing Her Album For Years

Rihanna has, admittedly, been hyping up her comeback album in 2024. She confirmed that she’s been in the studio with her boyfriend, ASAP Rocky, who has also been working on his first album since 2018. The biggest thing Rihanna wants to convey to fans is artistic growth. At least, that’s what she told Extra back in April. “It’s gonna be amazing,” she told the outlet. “It has to be — that is the only reason it’s not out yet. If I’m not feeling it and I’m not feeling like it represents the evolution, the time I spent away. There should be a show of growth, right?”

While Rihanna confirmed that her and ASAP Rocky have been working closely, she maintained that the new album will not be filled with guest features. If anything, the singer wants to error on the side of less features, so as to give fans more of her. Especially after nearly a decade away from the industry. “I’m not a big collaborator,” she explained. “It has to be very intentional, so I’ll know when I have the record.” RiRi is playing up the notion that she’s retired in public. That said, she’s made it very clear that she’s hard at work on new music behind closed doors.

Fans seemed enthused, but as with just about any Rihanna announcement in the past four years, they also met the news with an increasingly predictable response: More questions about Rihanna’s next album. “You releasing everything but an album!” wrote one fan in the replies. “Is this “Fenty Hair” the name of the new album or???” wondered another. Others simply expressed their excitement for yet another Fenty product to add to the collection.

Welp. Can’t please everybody, I guess. You can find more information about Fenty Hair here.
