Rihanna’s bombshell clue that she’s married A$AP Rocky sends fans into meltdown as she launches new lingerie range
MUSIC icon, billionaire and now record-breaker – well, that’s just the icing on the cake.
Rihanna this week became the first black female artist to surpass 50 billion streams on Spotify.
In comparison, Beyonce has clocked up a mere 29 billion.
The only women ahead of her are Taylor Swift with 100billion and Ariana Grande on 56 billion.
Not bad for an artist who has not released any new music since her 2016 album Anti.
As if that was not enough, RiRi seized the moment to launch a lingerie campaign for her new Savage X Fenty bridal collection, posting these sizzling snaps with the cheeky caption: “Here comes the bride!”
It left fans speculating whether she has tied the knot with US rap star partner A$AP Rocky, with whom she shares sons RZA, two, and 21-month-old Riot Rose.
Whether or not she has said “I do”, it’s clear Rihanna really can do anything she sets her mind to.
As well as holding the Guinness World Record for the best-selling female artist of the 21st Century, she has also built her billion-dollar Fenty brand, which now includes Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin and Fenty Hair.
Not bad for a mumpreneur who says she had to take a moment to reconnect with herself and remember her earlier achievements after welcoming her children.
Despite headlining the Super Bowl in 2023, Rihanna has not performed in the UK since her 2016 Anti world tour.
The Sun revealed earlier this year how she was on the cusp of announcing a June residency at one of London’s biggest stadiums – before the plans were axed at the last minute.
It is thought she has instead gone back into the studio to work on her ever-delayed ninth album.
One thing is for sure, though – Rihanna is at her happiest post-children.
And posing in these pictures, she is practising what she preaches – encouraging women to feel super-sexy and confident.
To quote her 2008 hit single, Take A Bow, Riri.
