Fans are still waiting for Rihanna to release new music, but they might not have to hold on much longer. While the superstar has been teasing a new album for many years, there's still no sign it's actually on the way. She is, however, expected to produce new material for the upcoming animated Smurfs movie. The film has been advertising her involvement as the voice of a character, and it's also been noted that she has created original tunes for the movie.
This is likely tied to her continued pursuit of an Academy Award for Best Original Song, an honor she's been nominated for in the past. Ahead of the upcoming film, which is expected to arrive in mid-July, lovers of Rihanna's music continue to buy and stream the hits that made her the global superstar she is today, and this week, she sends multiple tunes back to the same ranking in the United Kingdom.
Rihanna currently fills three spaces on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart, the tally that ranks the bestselling tracks in those styles — though that genre label can be applied fairly loosely.
Her highest-rising hit on the list this frame is 'Stay,' her collaboration with Mikky Ekko. This time around, that track is back at No. 21. 'Don't Stop the Music' – which many would classify as either dance or pop – narrowly manages to re-enter the 40-spot roster, coming in at No. 38.
At the same time, 'Breakin' Dishes,' which enjoyed something of a resurgence many years after its release, climbs slightly, moving from No. 35 to No. 33.
Among those three cuts on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart, only 'Don't Stop the Music' has led the charge. Coincidentally, it returns to No. 38 in its thirty-eighth week on this list. 'Stay' has come close, having risen as high as No. 2. 'Breakin' Dishes,' which was never a hit during its initial heyday but became one in 2024 after going viral, has only climbed to No. 17 and has so far spent just 14 frames somewhere on this ranking.
Rihanna also claims a win on another genre-focused tally in the U.K. this week. 'We Found Love,' one of her collaborations with Calvin Harris, climbs a few spots on the Official Dance Singles chart. This time around, it jumps from No. 27 to No. 21 as it celebrates 229 weeks somewhere on the busy list.
The continued consumption of many of two of these charting tracks helps keep one of Rihanna's albums present on a pair of rankings across the Atlantic. Good Girl Gone Bad has become a constant charter, and this frame is no different. It climbs to No. 62 on the Official Albums ranking thanks to general consumption, though it dips two spots to No. 53 on the Official Albums Streaming list. The plays it is constantly collecting on platforms like Spotify and Apple Music that are largely responsible for its continued presence on these tallies.

All the Most Divisive Fashion Moments From 'And Just Like That'
In the first episode of And Just Like That season 3, Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie already made headlines. Not only did she seemingly rekindle with Aidan (John Corbett) after their five-year break agreement, but she made a fashion risk that left the internet scratching their heads. In one scene, Carrie is walking through Washington Square Park with her friend Seema (Sarita Choudhury) wearing a cream-colored dress from Ossie Clark and a billowing gingham hat designed by Maryam Keyhani. On the internet, viewers were quick to criticize it. 'Who in their right mind would walk around NYC wearing this hat?? (Or any other city 😆)' wrote one X user. 'On last night's season premiere of And Just Like That, Carrie wore a 'hat' that made me question reality,' wrote another user. 'I saw the hat and wanted it on my head,' Parker said in defense of the hat choice to USA Today. 'At this point, there's no pretend dilly-dallying around. We pretty much just put stuff on my head and photograph it, and hope that Michael Patrick [King, executive producer of the show] is hospitable to the idea.' Luckily, he agreed. 'It's like, 'Hey, everybody, we're back!' he told the outlet of the look. 'I've learned over the years that sometimes logic is not as good as a hat. It makes people say, 'I love it. I hate it. Oh, my God, what was she thinking?'' To check out the divisive hat and some other divisive looks from And Just Like That over the years, scroll below!

Best of SheKnows 27 Celebrity Moms Who've Opened Up About Their Plastic Surgery 16 of the Steamiest Movie Sex Scenes With Older Women & Younger Men All the Men Marilyn Monroe Reportedly Had Relationships With Throughout Her Short Life Parker had a vision to wear this Maryam Keyhani hat and really went for it. It's camp at its finest. Also in episode 1, viewers couldn't exactly get behind the oversized ball necklace Nicole Ari Parker's character Lisa Todd Wexley wore. 'And Just Like That Season 3 is strange…Between the clown bonnet and woven string light necklace I'm lost,' wrote one X user. In season 1, Carrie left fans scratching their heads with a scene of her smoking in a pink Batsheva housedress, babushka-style headscarf, and elbow-length purple latex gloves. Luckily, it all had an explanation. In a convo with Seema, she explained that the look is to avoid any cigarette smoke or smell from coming into her apartment. 'I smoked in here one night and then everything smelled like a cigarette and I was right back there, wanting to smoke morning, noon, and while I was sleeping,' she told her friend, per Vogue. 'Now, I allow myself one a day in a walk around the block, with like three kerchiefs on my head and Playtex kitchen gloves. I just can't risk having that smell on my hair and my hands.' Carrie and Steve (David Eigenberg) shared a sweet moment together when they volunteered to paint houses in season 1. One thing that fans couldn't get behind, though? Why would Carrie go paint in these massive silver platform heels? When season 1 was filming, AJLT got backlash when fans speculated that Parker wore this Boho dress seemingly from Forever 21 in one of the scenes. As it turns out, not only was the dress not from the fast fashion brand, but the look was all carefully planned. 'The message from [show creator] Michael Patrick King was 'Put Carrie in something that she would be kind of embarrassed to wear while bumping into Natasha [Big's ex-wife] at the coffee place,'' costume designer Molly Rogers told InStyle. 'For me, that was that long summer dress, and SJ wanted to put a tiger shirt underneath it. It was very Coachella in a way; I didn't really find it to be a very Carrie outfit. That's why I thought it worked.' They also revealed the dress was vintage. 'That was something that I purchased probably about five years ago,' fellow designer Danny Santiago said. 'It had no label in it, and I think I paid $5 or $6 at a thrift shop.' While this look didn't get as much attention as any Carrie look did in the show, this look from Lisette (Katerina Tannenbaum) was certainly a choice. Together with these oversized brown boots, Lisette wore these pink hot pants, a bright blue bra and a sheer dress on top. We all know that Carrie has a flair for drama, but this white tulle skirt paired with this striped colorful shirt wasn't exactly the cohesive look viewers were looking for. In season 2, one of the show's most controversial moments was Carrie's pigeon clutch in episode 2. The bag, which is 3D-printed by JW Anderson, accessorized Carrie's gray jumpsuit. 'We brought it in, they loaned us one, and Sarah Jessica was like, 'Gimme that bag!'' Molly Rogers told Entertainment Weekly. 'She was totally into it. It's painted beautifully.' In the sixth episode of season 2, Carrie left viewers gasping when she faced a blizzard in this massive Moncler by Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli coat. It's probably the most dramatic look of hers to date, but it sure would insulate her from the cold! 'I, too, gasped when I saw that coat,' wrote Callie Holtermann for the New York Times. 'You're telling me she had that in her closet earlier this season when she supposedly had nothing to wear to the Met Gala? When Rihanna herself arrived at the Met in 2021 wearing a Balenciaga puffer gown with a giant train?' You know an outfit is good for the Met Gala when you need your husband to help you, right? In the Met Gala episode in season 2, Lisa Todd Wexley (Nicole Ari Parker) wore this flowy red custom Valentino dress paired with a dramatic Philip Treacy headpiece with red petals. We could barely see LTW's face, she couldn't get into a car, and her husband Herbert (Christopher Jackson) needed to help her with the train. Was all the hastle worth it?

Rihanna's Classics Return As Her New Single Vanishes Almost Immediately
Last week, the world was treated to a new song by Rihanna, which is a fairly rare occurrence these days. The singer is otherwise preoccupied with being a mother and running her massively successful cosmetics brand, Fenty Beauty, but she does deliver a track or two here and there, and they are usually associated with film projects. "Friend of Mine" is set to be featured in the upcoming animated Smurfs film, which is expected later this summer. While there was plenty of excitement when the tune was announced, it didn't prove to be a massive commercial success. Just days after its debut, the cut has already faded, while several of Rihanna's time-tested smashes are back. Two of Rihanna's most popular songs reappear on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart this week. The pair rebounds together and sit side-by-side, as "Don't Stop the Music" reenters the list of the bestselling tracks in those genres at No. 36, while "Love the Way You Lie," one of her collaborations with Eminem, is back at No. 37. "Don't Stop the Music" and "Love the Way You Lie" rank among Rihanna's 14 No. 1s on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart. Nearly half of the 33 tracks she's pushed into the top 10 on the genre-only tally have spent time in the highest spot, and most have racked up more than one frame on the throne. Rihanna currently fills three spaces on the 40-rung roster. "Stay," her collaboration with Mikky Ekko and a former runner-up, dips from No. 24 to No. 27, and is joined this frame by both 'Don't Stop the Music' and 'Love the Way You Lie.' "Friend of Mine" didn't reach the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart, as it was classified under a different genre by the Official Charts Company. Instead, it launched at No. 19 on the Official Dance Singles chart — but it can no longer be found on that ranking. In fact, even though "Friend of Mine" opened on four song rosters across the U.K. just days ago, it now appears on none of them. The tune started at No. 72 on the Official Singles chart, No. 75 on the Official Singles Downloads list, and No. 79 on the Official Singles Sales ranking. It only managed one frame on each tally, at least so far. That's quite a stark contrast when compared to tracks like "Stay" and "Love the Way You Lie," which have both racked up more than 100 weeks on the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Singles chart.

Photo: Courtesy of The Park The Park was founded by creative director and public relations veteran Sarah Bonello with a single aim: to make getting dressed in the morning easy.
