RIHANNA AND ROCKY KNOW HOW TO SHOP TOGETHER

On Sunday night, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky decided to do some hasty holiday shopping and they popped into the CVS Pharmacy we frequently visit in West Hollywood, right before closing time. To maintain their privacy, they immediately separated and each grabbed a shopping cart as they patrolled different  aisles. (Rocky took charge of their son Riot)  They bought lots of wrapping paper, gift boxes, ribbon, and bags, plus colorful kids toys, and assorted doodads.  And they checked out separately to keep SOME of their purchases under wraps…

IS RIHANNA DROPPING HINTS AGAIN?

There’s a REASON Rihanna seems to be covering up in multiple layers – she’s hinting to pals that baby number three is on the way! After having two boys, this time around Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have turned to modern medicine to better their odds of having a baby girl. Rihanna has yet to confirm that she’s pregnant, but my source reveals she’s showing all of the signs, and they expect an announcement any minute now.

WILL RIHANNA STAND BY HER MAN?

Rihanna’s future with her babies daddy A$AP Rocky is being TESTED, now that he’s looking at serious jail time after being charged with two counts of first degree assault with a firearm. According to an insider, Rihanna recently POSTPONED her secret wedding plans, confiding to a friend that she wants to wait until Rocky’s legal troubles are behind him. After today’s ruling where a judge decided there was enough evidence against Rocky to proceed with a trial, it seems that Rihanna is questioning the relationship. “Rihanna’s image isn’t that of a bad girl so she doesn’t want a husband behind bars,” our source explained. She just paused plans for her spring 2024 wedding explaining that everything is on an indefinite hold. My source predicts Rihanna will wait to see how Rocky’s trial turns out – if he’s acquitted, she’ll go ahead with the wedding, but if he’s CONVICTED, she’ll end things and not stand by her man.

RIHANNA AND ASAP ROCKY SHOW OFF THEIR LOUIS VUITTON STYLE

Like we told you, Louis Vuitton will DEFINITELY never be the same! Looks like every self-respecting performer in the rap world turned up in Paris to celebrate Pharrell Williams’ first collection as Creative Director of the label. And he dressed most of the celebrities in his own designs. Rihanna and ASAP Rocky are pictured here returning to their fancy Hotel de Crillon following the after-party. She’s wearing a custom 3 piece LV outfit with the jacket tied around her hips. Rihanna likes to flaunt her tummy when she’s pregnant. Rocky is wearing an LV baseball jacket decorated with pearl brooches. The show was declared a triumph for Pharrell Williams…

RIHANNA IS MORE DOWN TO EARTH THAN SHE LOOKS

Rihanna doesn’t mind going overboard when it comes to fashion, but she wants her kids to have normal lives. She’s hosting a no-frills Beverly Hills bash for her son, RZA’s first birthday on May 13. According to a friend, Rihanna waited until the last minute to call her guests and personally invite them to the casual get-together. Although it’s being held at a friend’s large home in Beverly Hills, practical Rihanna isn’t going overboard. She’s a very hands-on mom, so she and her personal chef are preparing a traditional Barbados meal of flying fish and cou-cou for her guests. They’re also baking the cake and decorating the place themselves with streamers and balloons. Although they could easily hire a party planner and spend a lot of money like the Kardashians do for those kids’ birthdays, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky are determined to give their kids a normal childhood, despite their fortune and fame.

OUR MET GALA FASHION PREDICTION FOR MEN

Every year at the Met Gala we’ve seen the trains on women’s gowns get longer and more elaborate as female celebrities walk up that long staircase- almost to the point of being ridiculous. Men’s clothing designers have been watching and urging the bolder men they design for to become more open-minded and consider trains for their own attire. This year ASAP Rocky wore a plaid kilt skirt with a long appendage in the back and P Diddy wore a long and abundant cape that dragged behind. Rappers seem to have the audacity to pull off wearing a garment with a train first (weren’t they first to wear pearl necklaces?) and we predict at least one rapper will have a train next year!

RIHANNA : BACK TO REALITY

After her little boy was born last May, Rihanna proudly announced that she had NO nanny and that she and ASAP Rocky planned to raise the baby BY THEMSELVES. She could certainly AFFORD round-the-clock help, but chose not to hire anyone. Now that she’s pregnant AGAIN with her second child, she’s exhausted and become more realistic. She desperately needed a little time for herself – and also time to have fun with Rocky.  But instead of hiring anyone, she moved her mom and her aunt from Barbados into the Beverly Hills home she shares with Rocky. She still refuses to let any non-family babysit, so her mom and aunt are taking turns watching the baby when Rihanna can’t…

WHY DID RIHANNA OPT OUT OF OSCAR NOMINEE EVENT?

What do Rihanna and Jamie Lee Curtis have in common? They’re both currently nominated for Oscars and they’re both skipping the prestigious nominees dinner. While Jamie Lee passed on the event because it would go past her 9pm bedtime, Rihanna said thanks but no thanks for an entirely different reason. She skipped the event because she wasn’t allowed to bring her baby daddy, ASAP Rocky. The annual dinner has a strict NO plus-ones policy because they want nominees to get to know each other. Rihanna understood the rules, but  for SOME reason she couldn’t bear to go alone…

MEN IN SKIRTS CLUB: ASAP ROCKY IS AN ACTIVE MEMBER

And so it begins…the summer of THE SKIRT. Just days after Brad Pitt had the world abuzz when he flaunted a skirt to his Bullet Train premier, we have Rihanna’s baby-daddy ASAP Rocky looking right at home in a black leather skirt and Givenchy sweatshirt. Not much of a surprise because fashion-forward Rocky was one of the earliest rappers to try a skirt. We ARE surprised that anyone in their right mind  would choose to wear this outfit on a sizzling hot summer day in New York. Amazing, but some people dress without giving a second thought to the weather. Now that the male skirt is becoming quite acceptable, we can’t help but wonder if the mini-skirt IS NEXT…

WHO DAT IS? IT’S RIHANNA AND HER BABY DADDY!

Rihanna (along with boyfriend ASAP Rocky, of course) turned up at Craig’s celebrity restaurant wearing more clothing than usual. Recently she’s been into glitz with an oversize helping of flesh, showing off her pregnant tummy. Last night she was strictly casual- with a funny t-shirt that reads: Who dat is? Oh, Dat’s jus my BABY DADDY! featuring Mickey and Minnie Mouse as rappers. If you recall, that was a highly danceable hit single from the late 90’s by B-Rock and the Bizz… and very appropriate for the situation.
