As reported, Rihanna covers the newest issue of US Vogue.

Beyond posing for stunning snaps and spilling on her new album(s), the superstar drew on the feature to set the record straight about those Super Bowl rumors.

For, it’s been long touted that Rih turned down an offer to headline the coveted Halftime Show due to the treatment of benched quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who hasn’t played in years since commencing his Black Lives Matter kneeling protest.

Prior to now, one of the most telling signs Ms. Fenty wasn’t down with organizers was her publicly liking an Instagram post criticising her boss Jay-Z for signing a mega deal with the NFL – for charity work and to co-produce the Halftime Show.

Now, she’s explicitly making her stance on the situation unequivocally clear.

It’s Summer Walker‘s season, that’s for sure.

The R&B newcomer, whose debut album ‘Over It’ (released October 4) is reportedly set to leap over Post Malone and Da Baby‘s sales to capture the top of the Billboard 200 next week (click here to read more about that), is keeping the momentum going by releasing a video to the LP’s cut, ‘Playing Games.’

A fan favorite from the star-studded project, ‘Games’ – which features Bryson Tiller – comes as a sultry, slow jam that hears its performers trade verses on a love gone awry.  Featuring lyrical interpolations of Destiny’s Child‘s 2000 hit, ‘Say My Name,’ the song’s Christine Yuan-directed accompanying music video was delivered moments ago.

Mariah Carey may be regarded as one of Pop music’s most empowering female voices, but – as she recently revealed in a telling interview with ‘Variety’ – it hasn’t always been that way.

Selected as one of the mag’s 2019 ‘Power of Women’ honorees (click here to read more), the diva not only graced the cover of the ‘Power of Women’ issue but also featured inside and reflected on how the beginning of her career was predominantly shaped by powerful men.  Praising present day champions of the #MeToo movement and similar initiatives for gender equality, the songbird opened up about her personal experiences related to sexual misconduct in the industry and how those incidents helped encourage her to lift her voice in the fight for women’s rights.

“I’m so proud of the women who have come to tell their stories, because I didn’t do it, and I should have done it,” she said. That’s an incredible accomplishment.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Mimi fondly remembered her friend and fellow Pop icon, Whitney Houston, and so much more.  Look inside to watch the moving chat:

Atlanta’s Summer Walker is the newcomer on everyone’s lips thanks to her debut studio album, ‘Over It.’

Having drummed up buzz aplenty thanks to her critically acclaimed 2018 mixtape, ‘Last Day of Summer,’ the singer-songwriter sent her growing legion of fans into a frenzy on October 4th when ‘Over’ officially hit digitally shelves.  Flying to the top of iTunes sales tallies (as we reported here), the star-studded project – which features Usher, 6LACK, PartyNextDoor, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, Bryson Tiller, Jhene Aiko, and more – was initially projected to sell 75k-85k by the end of its inaugural sales tracking week (which would’ve resulted in a #3 debut on the Billboard 200).

Industry analysts have since recounted that tally, a feat that’s pushed Walker ahead of the race to the top of charts next week.  Placing previous front runners Post Malone and Da Baby behind, look inside to see just how many units the 23-year-old is expected to shift by Friday (October 11):
