While showing off his collection of one-of-a-kind jewelry, ASAP Rocky recently unveiled his most personal piece yet, a custom statue ring made in the image of none other than his partner, Rihanna.
Known for his bold fashion choices and love for unique accessories, Rocky didn't hold back when presenting the intricately detailed ring. Crafted with precision and style, the piece features a sculpted figure that pays homage to Rihanna's iconic silhouette. With a smirk, Rocky pointed out the figure's standout feature, saying, 'You see that fatty,' before adding with a laugh, 'You see that forehead, you know who it is.'
The ring, both playful and heartfelt, reflects the couple's signature mix of glamour and authenticity. Rihanna, who has often been a muse in fashion and music, now finds her image immortalized in Rocky's jewelry, a symbol of his admiration and love. The couple recently made headlines as they walked the Met Gala red carpet together, looking effortlessly stylish while subtly hinting at a new chapter in their growing family. Fans were quick to notice the 'soft launch' of baby number three, as Rihanna's figure-hugging gown and Rocky's gentle gestures sparked widespread speculation.
Rocky's statue ring, while unconventional, is a touching tribute to the woman he's built a family with. It stands as a flashy, yet intimate, symbol of their bond, a rare blend of love, humor, and high fashion that only they could pull off.

Sean Combs is relying on his celebrity skills in court — but it's a dangerous gamble: source
It's the most important performance of Sean 'Diddy' Combs' life. The rapper/actor/showman has apparently been treating the US District Court in Lower Manhattan as his stage as he is on trial fighting charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. He has allegedly been working so hard to charm the jury that the judge has ordered him to stop interacting with them after Combs, who is used to playing to the crowd, repeatedly made eye contact, smiled and nodded at the eight men and four women set to decide his fate — which, if he is found guilty, could mean life in prison. Advertisement Even his wardrobe — crewneck sweaters in muted neutrals — is a calculated move. 'They're doing it for a reason … every move is thought out,' said one courtroom expert. 'You put him in a blue sweater and it's like you're trying to dupe the jury into believing that he's something he's not.' 6 Before wearing sweaters to court, Sean Combs was a dandy on red carpets. Getty Images, Advertisement 'There is no method or strategy behind Mr. Combs' courtroom wardrobe,' said a representative for Combs's attorney Teny Geragos. 'He did not choose what he's wearing, and no one is advising him on his attire — the court order was very specific about what he could wear. But Combs, who has gone gray without hair dye, is apparently so worried about his appearance he has complained the courtroom sketch artist made him look like a 'koala.' Last week, Combs was reprimanded by Judge Arun Subramanian for repeatedly nodding at jurors. She threatened to throw him out of his own trial and reprimanded him: 'It cannot happen again.' He's also nodded approvingly at one witness who played up his work ethic and appeared disapproving toward another who claimed to have been punished for poor performance. He's entered the courtroom with a smile on his face and while making a heart gesture made with his hands. Advertisement 6 A cape-clad Combs attended the 2023 Met Gala with Yung Miami. Getty Images for Karl Lagerfeld In one instance, when he and a juror both did what they could to ward off the courtroom chill — Combs rubbed his hands, the juror rubbed his arms — the music mogul reportedly looked at the juror and mouthed the word 'Cold,' receiving a smile in return. 'That can get him in trouble,' said a criminal defense attorney who represents rappers and asked not to be identified for fear that an association with Combs could look bad to his clients. 'No lawyer would tell him to do that. In fact, I would advise him against it. Judges tend not to like it.' It's unclear whether or not Judge Subramanian minded Combs engaging with the courtroom sketch artist. Advertisement 6 Combs has been known to smile and make the heart-hands gesture when entering the courtroom. REUTERS 6 Combs has told courtroom sketch artist Jane Rosenberg, 'Soften me up a bit. You're making me look like a koala bear.' REUTERS With no cameras allowed in the courtroom, the work of veteran trial sketcher Jane Rosenberg provides the sole visual record of the proceedings. Like others before him — including Rudy Giuiani, who once told the artist, 'You made me look like my dog!' — Combs is not a fan of Rosenberg's depictions. She has said that the music mogul told her, 'Soften me up a bit. You're making me look like a koala bear.' Meanwhile, Combs, who had his own Sean John fashion line, has been turning out for court as he never did in public. It's been reported that he is alternating between five sets of sweaters, slacks and button-down shirts and two pairs of lace-free shoes (often a rule for the incarcerated). 6 The Menendez brothers, in 1993, leveraged the sweater look while standing trial for murder. AFP via Getty Images 'But, look, we're talking about Diddy. Everyone knows who he is. So it's tough to make that work,' the attorney said of the low-key, non-flashy look. 'Plus, a federal courtroom is a formal setting. I think you should be wearing a suit there. Everyone knows that he can afford a suit.' Advertisement Sweaters have also been courtroom favorites of defendants like Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey. The style of burgundy sweater worn by accused murderer Luigi Mangione while pleading not guilty sold out at Nordstrom last December. 6 Combs, now gray-haired without access to hair dye, looks quite different than he did at the Billboard awards in 2022. Getty Images The first major trial to feature defendants in sweaters was Eric and Lyle Menendez's murder trial in 1993, though the siblings favored bright blues, greens and corals in an apparent effort to appear harmless. But the attorney noted that, 'At the end of the day, how the guy dresses will go only so far. There is nothing more eloquent than the facts of the case.'

K. Michelle Checks Interviewer About Her Country Music Roots: ‘I Didn't Fly Here — I Grew Here'
Source: Jason Kempin / Getty More Black artists are embracing country music than ever before, as many have finally felt that the time is right to pursue a genre of music where Black musicians have traditionally been overlooked. In a recent interview, K. Michelle, known for her R&B music, corrected an interviewer about her country music roots during an appearance at the 2025 CMA Fest. When the interviewer told K. Michelle that she 'didn't grow up with country music,' the former Love & Hip Hop star offered a reply that cleared up any misconceptions. 'I did grow up in country music. You do this all the time. I'm from Memphis, Tennessee. I got a scholarship for yodeling — that's how I paid for college,' she fired back. 'My start, to you, has been when the Judd [family] reached out to me to go pay Naomi Judd tribute.' 'It's always been a thing for me. I was told I could not sing country music because I was Black, but it was something I had always been doing and will continue to do. I'm born and raised in Tennessee. I grew here, I didn't fly here,' K. Michelle added. 'I am so happy to be able to sing the songs of who I am and what it is I want to. So, I'm happy that people like you are just discovering me though' she said. When the interviewer pointed out that K. Michelle was an unknown to contemporary country music radio, she replied 'Well, you don't hear a lot of women in contemporary radio, period, right now. And you really don't hear Black ones, but you will.' In 2024, K. Michelle officially signed to BMG Nashville and released her first country single, 'Tennessee,' which was released earlier this year. Her debut country album Puddin's Outla Music is set to be released in 2025. SEE ALSO K.

Young Thug Tug's Mariah The Scientist At BET, Fans Drag Thugger Online
Source: Allen Berezovsky / Getty A clip of Young Thug and his boo Mariah The Scientist at the 2025 BET Awards is going viral, and not in a good way. The couple, who have been together since 2021, skipped posing for red carpet photos, and fans are now calling out Young Thug for how he treated Mariah during the moment. In the video, Thug is seen holding Mariah's hand tightly and pulling her past photographers without stopping. He's wearing a black suit and a creepy Leatherface-style mask, while Mariah looked stunning in a short, backless green dress. At one point, a photographer calls out to Mariah, but Thug quickly shuts it down, saying, 'We're not doing that, c'mon,' and flips someone off before dragging her along. Mariah looked back a few times, almost like she wasn't sure if she should go. Fans online didn't hold back. 'He's literally dragging her along as if people wouldn't want pictures of her too,' one user wrote. Many pointed out that Mariah stood by Thug while he was in jail, and now that he's out, she deserves her own spotlight too. Young Thug has been making headlines recently for popping up on other rappers' tracks, showing that he's still active in music despite his legal issues. He's been featured on songs with his ATL fam, Future and Lil Baby. Thugger fans were excited to see him back, but this video has shifted the conversation. Meanwhile, Mariah the Scientist has been doing her thing too. She just dropped a new single called 'Burning Blue', which has been getting love for its emotional lyrics and smooth vibe. Neither of them has said anything about the viral video yet, but it's clear people are paying attention. While some think it was just a stressful moment, others believe it showed a bigger issue. Either way, fans are hoping Mariah gets the respect and recognition she deserves.
