Shot in the beginning of June the wait is now over, Kendrick Lamar and Rihanna just dropped their video for ”LOYALTY”! First thought is RIHANNA IS HOT. Second thought is VISUALS. I love these two together, feels like a perfect match. Also think you can see a good vibe and energy between them. Must have been a fun shoot!
A badgal has been slaying the Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets premieres in Los Angeles, London and Paris. A badgal’s name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty and her stylist Mel Ottenberg really pulled through with these looks.
Let’s start with L.A, where she stunned in a custom made Giambattista Valli:
A DREAM!
Then came the London premiere and another Giambattista Valli dress, this time from the Fall 2017 couture collection. Also know all looks have been made with her own Fenty Beauty, coming this fall.
I honestly grasped when I saw her. An icon.
Lastly the Paris premiere last night, where she dressed the boobies in Prada. Thank you mother.
Her crew’s been with her which always makes me happy. Haven’t seen them together in a while and missing my own friends (I’m up north working/hanging out with family), Mel’s updates is really warming my heart. Friendship 4ever <3
Or should we really say new? Fans have known Rihanna to be dating a mystery man for months. There was new years in London and the secret trips to the Maldives and Japan. After yesterdays release of some steamy poolside pics of the two, his identity has finally been revealed: Hassan Jameel, a Saudi businessman and vice chairman of family business Abdul Latif Jameel.
Pics from tmz.
The two are vacationing on Ibiza where a photographer caught sight of them and in 1,2,3 the secret was out to the world. The couple were seen again today, picking up some coffee while looking cute and comfortable.
Yes you better give her flowers.
Finally learning who this man is of course super exciting but to be completely honest, I didn’t mind them being a secret. It was nice to think Rihanna had her private life where she could enjoy a romance without the entire world watching. Perhaps contradictory of me to write as I’m posting pictures of the two and playing part in that privacy disappearing, but such is life. I hope people will continue to let them live their lives and for us fans to respect and support her in her happiness. That’s what I take away from it anyway. Their smiles.
As for Hassan, here’s what we know: he’s previously been linked with Naomi Campbell, is from a super-duper-ultra rich family and seems totally smitten with Rih. Their ship name hasn’t been 100% agreed upon yet, but it stands between Rihsan and Hassana. I have no clue what he’s saying, but found a video of an interview or something:
Will end with an earlier pic of the two. It’s from the trip to Japan earlier this year, and even though it’s blurry as hell you can see that again, they’re smiling :)
For her final collection with Manolo Blahnik, a collaboration that started with ”Denim desserts” back in May 2016 and continued with ”Savage” a couple of months later, Rihanna has created 4 embellished heels that are truly the best we’ve gotten from Fenty’s stay in the luxury shoe biz (alongside the 9 to 5’s).
This third and final collection is called ”So stoned” (I see what you did there Rih) and $he made sure to wear one of the designs in the video for Wild Thoughts. The shoe is called ”Poison Ivy” and will cost about 1000x more than any mortal can afford (thanks to capitalism and his friend class differences). Looks amazing though.
Mamacita rocking ”Poison Ivy”.
It’s not always she’ll promote her work and/or designs but we should all consider us lucky this month of June because both video and shoes are getting the best of treatments. Yesterday Rihanna posted three gorgeous pictures, taken by her main photographer Dennis Leupold, of the shoes on her Instagram. Below are ”Bajan Princess”, ”Spice” and ”Poison Ivy” (in that order):

The final design is called ”Purple Chalice”, which we’ve only gotten a promo pic of so far:
All the shoes have Swarovski crystals on them, cost between $1,265 to $2,325 and will be available for purchase on July 6th over at manoloblahnik.com.
