Rihanna On Sex Of Third Baby With A$AP Rocky
The couple, who have been friends since 2012 and started dating in 2019, are already mom and dad to two little boys.
They welcomed their first son, RZA, in May 2022, and their second, Riot Rose, just over a year later, in August 2023. Since then, Rihanna has been open about the fact that she would like a daughter.In a conversation with Interview last year, the star was asked how many more children she would like, and she replied: 'As many as God wants me to have.'
'I don't know what God wants, but I would go for more than two,' she added at the time. 'I would try for my girl. But of course, if it's another boy, it's another boy.'
And the star doubled down on this mentality during an interview with Extra at the premiere for her latest movie, Smurfs.
When asked about the sex of her third baby, RiRi coyly replied: 'You have to wait and see.'
She then asked: 'Oh, my gosh, are you guys going to be so hurt if it's a boy?'
"I think we're secretly hoping you have a girl, secretly, because you've got your two sweet, sweet boys,' host Terri Seymour explained before asking: 'And do you want a girl?'
"I've always wanted a girl,' Rihanna admitted. 'God knows best, right? And I love my boys."
Elsewhere in the interview, Rihanna said that RZA and Riot are 'delighted' to be getting a younger sibling, and confirmed that, boy or girl, she and Rocky will also be giving their third-born a name that begins with the letter R.She said: "I mean, of course. It's tradition at this point."
Do you think that Rihanna will finally get her baby girl? Let me know in the comments below!

Rihanna finds ‘Smurfs' in a hopeless place
So I was quite worried when I learned that 'Smurfs' not only sends its heroes to real-world Paris, it has Rihanna playing Smurfette and John Goodman co-starring as Papa Smurf. 'It's deja Smurf all over again!' I muttered. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Papa Smurf (John Goodman). Paramount Animation Advertisement That was before I read that the script was by 'South Park' veteran and 'Team America: World Police' co-writer, Pam Brady, and directed by Chris Miller, who directed the 'Shrek' spin-off, 'Puss in Boots.' (Chris Miller did not direct 'The Lego Movie' or '21 Jump Street.'—that's Christopher Miller.) 'Perhaps Brady will bring some irreverence to this movie,' I thought. Plus, I liked 'Puss in Boots' well enough to give its director the benefit of the doubt. I was cautiously optimistic as I entered the theater. When the credits rolled on this animated bore, I felt like a Smurfing fool for getting my hopes up. I wanted to kick my own Smurf. Advertisement Your kids will probably love this movie, which means you'll be watching it often. Excuse me while I giggle with unSmurflike malice. To its credit, 'Smurfs' does at least try to tell a coherent story. Papa Smurf (Goodman) creates Smurf Village as a way to hide one of the four magic books that can be used to bring either good or evil into the universe. He populates the mushroom houses with the male Smurfs you're familiar with, such as Vanity Smurf (Maya Erskine) and Worry Smurf (Billie Lourd). If you happen to be unfamiliar, don't worry. There's a disco number at the beginning of the film that introduces all 3 gazillion Smurfs. Rih—I mean, Smurfette is by far the most popular Smurf in the village. I'm glad the film acknowledged her origin story as a creation of the evil, Smurf-hating wizard, Gargamel (JP Karliak), who designed her to lure the Smurfs to him. It's unfortunate that they left out the part where she originally looked like a blue Olive Oyl before Papa Smurf gave her the Mamie Van Doren treatment. No Name (James Corden) and Smurfette (Rihanna) in "Smurfs." Paramount Animation Believe it or Smurf, Smurfette isn't the main character in this movie. That role belongs to No Name Smurf (James Corden), the only Smurf in the village who doesn't have a defining characteristic. After trying over 10,000 jobs, including wooden clog making, No Name is having a major identity crisis. While Smurfette gets to sing one of several songs in the film (a song co-written by Rihanna, no less), it's No Name who gets the big 'I Want' number. His wish for a vocation is granted, but not without severe repercussions. Advertisement Meanwhile, Gargamel's younger brother, Razamel (also voiced by Karliak) is in cahoots with three other evil wizards to secure the book Papa Smurf's been hiding for 100 years. Razamel sounds like a cream you'd use to cure the Smurf on your Smurf, proving that those poorly named wizards had some mean parents. Joel (Daniel Levy) and Razamel (JP Karliak) in "Smurfs." Paramount Animation Because of an accidental use of magic in the normally magic-free Smurf Village, Razamel is able to use a portal to snatch the Smurfs, including Papa and his red-headed brother, Ken (Nick Offerman). It's up to Smurfette, No Name, and a few others to save the day. Along the way, they meet some scary looking creatures led by Mama Poot (voiced by Natasha Lyonne at her raspiest), who help them out. There are so many missed opportunities in 'Smurfs' that I wanted to pull out all my Smurf. Different animation styles are used, but they never seamlessly cohere. The cast is made up of a murderer's row of great voices like Sandra Oh, 'Schitt's Creek' alum Dan Levy, Octavia Spencer, and William S. Preston, Esq. himself, Alex Winter. Hefty Smurf (Alex Winter), Vanity Smurf (Maya Erskine), Worry Smurf (Billie Lourd), Ken (Nick Offerman), Smurfette (Rihanna), No Name (James Corden), and Brainy Smurf (Xolo Mariduena) in "Smurfs." Paramount Animation The biggest Smurfing deal is that they got Kurt Russell to play Papa Smurf's brother, Ron. His blonde hair is so long and luxurious that it makes Smurfette look like Kojak. Having Russell, Offerman, and Goodman play brothers is casting manna from Heaven, yet this movie doesn't do anything remotely Smurfing interesting with them. Eventually, No Name finds his true calling. It's no surprise that it's film criticism. That's right, No Name Smurf grew up to be me. If you believe that, I've got a Smurf in Brooklyn to sell you. Just be aware that my fake ending is better than the one you'll get in 'Smurfs.' As the fella once said, 'ain't that a kick in the Smurf?' Advertisement ★1/2 SMURFS Directed by Chris Miller. Written by Pam Brady. Starring Rihanna, John Goodman, James Corden, JP Karliak, Nick Offerman, Sandra Oh, Dan Levy, Octavia Spencer, Alex Winter, Maya Erskine, Billie Lourd. At AMC Boston Common, Landmark Kendall Square, Alamo Drafthouse Seaport, AMC Causeway, suburbs. 92 min.

Drake Breaks His Tie With Rihanna With A New Bestseller
Drake debuts at No. 1 on Billboard's Digital Song Sales chart with "What Did I Miss?", his fifteenth ... More leader, and as it arrives, he breaks his tie with Rihanna. NEW YORK, NY - AUGUST 28: Singer Rihanna (L) and rapper Drake pose onstage during the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards at Madison Square Garden on August 28, 2016 in New York City. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/WireImage) In America, hip-hop is not just the most consumed genre of music, it's also the most streamed. The biggest names in rap typically perform best on platforms like Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, iHeartRadio, and others, but several major figures in the genre have proven they can sell massive quantities of albums and singles while also dominating the streaming rankings. Drake is one such star, and he demonstrates his commercial prowess once more with his brand new song "What Did I Miss?" Drake's "What Would I Do?" Debuts at No. 1 "What Did I Miss?" debuts at No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales chart, where the track enters in the highest rung with just under 6,000 pure purchases. It claims the top spot by only a few dozen sales, pushing "Ordinary" by Alex Warren down from the summit the Drake tune arrives. Fifteenth Digital Chart-Topper for Drake With a new winner to his credit, Drake earns his milestone fifteenth champion on Billboard's ranking of the bestselling tracks in the United States. "What Did I Miss?" pushes him ahead of Rihanna, with whom he was previously tied, as both had scored 14 leaders. The two superstars have collaborated numerous times throughout their careers, but now Drake surpasses her — at least for the moment. Taylor Swift Still Leads Taylor Swift continues to dominate with 29 No. 1s on the Digital Song Sales chart. That's as many ruling smashes as both Drake and Rihanna combined. Nicki Minaj holds onto second place with 17 wins. A Mix of One-Week Hits and Long-Running Smashes Most of Drake's No. 1s on the Digital Song Sales chart led for just one frame, though a few have managed to control the tally for long stretches – even months. "God's Plan" ranks as the rapper's longest-running leader, with eight frames at No. 1. "In My Feelings," which was released the same year, dominated for half a dozen weeks. Throughout his time in the spotlight, Drake has sent 159 tracks to the Digital Song Sales chart. Of those, 62 have broken into the top 10. "What Did I Miss?" Rules Eight Billboard Charts "What Did I Miss?" opens at No. 1 on eight different Billboard charts this week. Three of those lists are focused exclusively on sales, while another three measure only streaming activity. The track also conquers both the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs rankings simultaneously, though it stalls in the runner-up spot on the Hot 100.

Rihanna is giving fans some insight into the naming process as she prepares to expand her family once again. Source: DUTCH/Bauer-Griffin / Getty The singer, who is currently pregnant with her third child, showed up to the Smurfs premiere in Los Angeles with both of her babies by her side. Rihanna—who shares son RZA, 3, and Riot, 23 months, with boyfriend A$AP Rocky—revealed some of her plans for baby number three, including whether or not she's going to keep with tradition when thinking of a name. 'I'm excited for tonight. Tonight is going to be fun, and we get to watch the movie together for the first time. I get to watch it in its full completion. So, that should be interesting,' she told Extra . 'Everybody gets to watch it on the 18th. So, we're really going for it now. It's finally being birthed. We've been working on it for so long. So, like, a few years now, actually. And it's happening…You know, you start working on something and 2025 feels so far away and then we're here.' Of course, the soon-to-be mama of three was asked about how her little ones feel as they wait on the arrival of another sibling, to which Rih confirmed, 'Oh, they're delighted.' She played coy when asked about the sex of her next baby, insisting, 'You have to wait and see. Oh, my gosh, are you guys going to be so hurt if it's a boy? I've always wanted a girl. God knows best, right? And I love my boys.' While she didn't give a straight answer on that, Rihanna did confirm that her third child will keep with the tradition of having a name that starts with the letter 'R.' 'I mean, of course. It's tradition at this point,' she told the outlet. After leaving the Los Angeles premiere with her kiddos, Rihanna made her way to her go-to dinner spot, Giorgio Baldi, where she changed into another stunning below-the-bump look.
