Is Rihanna Pregnant? Fans & Media in a Frenzy

Rihanna at the Annual, Diamond Ball.

New York City

Rihanna Fenty, The Bajan Pop Princess and Musical Icon bring the Internet in a frenzy after her appearance at her 5th annual Diamond Ball in New York City.

The "Rihanna Navy" went into a frenzy, in the last 24 hours, with rumors that The “Wild Thoughts” Singer, may be with-child. During an Interview with Essence Magazine on Thursday, September 12, to Commemorate her annual, Diamond Ball, Rihanna said “I am a black woman, I come from a black woman, who came from a black woman, who came from a black woman and I'm going to give birth to a black woman.”  The latter statement caused online pandemonium from Rihanna superfans. The reactions varied from shock, to joyful celebrations, to others upset that they weren't the father of the baby. Others  are excited for the "lucky child", who gets to have RiRi for a mom.

Rihanna, was asked by ESSENCE the importance of her standing up for black women? She responded, “ I mean, it doesn't even cross me in my mind like it is important for me to stand up for black women. I’m a black woman, I come from a black woman, who came from a black woman and I’m going to give birth to a black woman". “We are impeccable. We’re special and the world is just going to have to deal with that.”

Rihanna has been linked to billionaire boyfriend, Hassan Jameel, for a number of years now. However, he was coincidentally absent from Rihanna's Diamond Ball Event. Seth Myers hosted the Event, benefiting The Clara Lionel Foundation, which supports emergency programs around the world. In attendance were many celebrities, such as Cardi B, DJ Khaled and his pregnant wife, Meek Mill, Big Sean and many others. Pharrell also performed with Rihanna. Rihanna looked Fabulous in a black, Givenchy Creation, which accentuated her curves, further fueling The Rumors.

TMZ, however, claims that insiders close to Rihanna denied the pregnancy rumour, saying “sorry, she's not pregnant”.

“I want to dedicate this award to my Uncle Johnny, the most fabulous gay man who help raised me and my sister,” she said. “He lived his truth and he was brave and unapologetic during a time when this country was not accepting. His battle with HIV was one of the most painful experiences of my life. I’m hopeful that his struggle served to open pathways for other young people to live more freely.”

Jay went on to say, “LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. To choose who you love is your human right. Who you make love to and take that ass to Red Lobster is your human right.”

The Wailers

Bob, Bunny and Peter

The Wailers were formed when self-taught musician Hubert Winston McIntosh (Peter Tosh) met the singers Neville Livingston (Bunny Wailer), and Robert Nesta Marley (Bob Marley) in 1963.

The lineup was known variously as the Teenagers, the Wailing Rudeboys, the Wailing Wailers and finally just the Wailers. The original lineup featured Junior Braithwaite on vocals, Bob Marley on guitar, Peter Tosh on keyboard, Neville Livingston (a.k.a. Bunny Wailer) on drums, and Cherry Smith and Beverley Kelso on backing vocals. By 1966 Braithwaite, Kelso and Smith had left the band, which then consisted of the trio Livingston, Marley and Tosh.

Some of the Wailers' most notable songs were recorded with Lee "Scratch" Perry and his studio band the Upsetters. In 1964, the Wailers topped the Jamaican charts with "Simmer Down". The Wailers also worked with renowned reggae producer Leslie Kong, who used his studio musicians called Beverley's All-Stars (Jackie Jackson, Paul Douglas, Gladstone Anderson, Winston Wright, Rad Bryan, Hux Brown) to record the songs that would be released as an album entitled “The Best of The Wailers”.

Cardi B breastfeeding Kulture in iconic photo

Opinion: Cardi B made our celebrity wall with this iconic photo of her breastfeeding her daughter Kulture.

The photo was posted on her Instagram Page on December 31/2018. She ended the year in style and making a statement.

There is a taboo with public breastfeeding and many women have trouble breastfeeding their babies. Therefore, is photo will not only inspire many young mothers but bring attention to the issue of public breastfeeding. Many argues that the breast has been sexualised and this is the reason public breastfeeding is frowned upon. The breast is food for the new born and it should be acknowledged as such.
