Rihanna revealed her second pregnancy at the Super Bowl


Rihanna and rapper A$AP Rocky already have a one-year-old son together called RZA – which is pronounced “Rizza”.

While the new baby’s name is not yet known, TMZ has said it starts with the letter “R” too.

The 35-year-old singer revealed her second pregnancy during her half-time Super Bowl show in February, with her representatives later confirming the news.

She later joked that her eldest son was jealous when she attended the 95th Academy Awards ceremony in March, cross that his mum was taking his soon-to-be-born sibling to the Oscars instead of him.

The Barbadian singer has previously said that becoming a mum had made her feel she could “take on the world”.

Sabrina Carpenter hits out at 'evil and disgusting' White House video featuring her song

Sabrina Carpenter has hit out at an “evil and disgusting” White House video of migrants being detained that uses one of her songs.

“Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda,” the pop star posted on X.

The White House used part of Carpenter‘s upbeat song Juno over pictures of immigration agents handcuffing, chasing and detaining people.

It was posted on social media on Monday and has been viewed 1.2 million times so far.

President Trump‘s policy of sending officers into communities to forcibly round up illegal immigrants has proved controversial, with protests and legal challenges ongoing.

Mr Trump promised the biggest deportation in US history, but some of those detained have been living and working in the US for decades and have no criminal record.

Carpenter is not the only star to express disgust over the administration’s use of their music.
