Rihanna, Alicia Keys, and Pink are just a few of the names that joined millions across the globe in solidarity for the Women’s March.

Purposefully timed to take place the day after Donald Trump‘s inauguration as US President, the rallies sought to celebrate womanhood and remind of the glaring inequalities that are still a reality. The latter being a core focus of the campaign given Trump’s sexually charged and degrading comments about women.

Beyond lending their name to the cause, the ladies rolled up their sleeves and took part.

The world renowned musician Andrew Lloyd Webber has insinuated that he may have discovered Rihanna before she was signed by Universal’s Def Jam twelve years ago.

His interesting, and slightly disturbing, thoughts on the then teenage singer below…

Rihanna may have scored an impressive 8 nominations at the 2017 Grammys, but it appears she’s pressed like a panini over this year’s leading act – Beyonce.

The pair have long been pit against each other by their respective fanbases, yet have maintained an air of cordial publicly.

That all seems to have been flushed down the drain (with Ms. Fenty’s Album of the Year hopes) after the Bajan belle “liked” a shady-filled post aimed at Bey and the Grammy committee.

See what we mean below…

Rihanna is a very busy woman.

In the last month, the entertainer has completed her lengthy ‘ANTI World Tour’, picked up the ‘Shoe of the Year’ award at the FN Achievement awards and started work on her new TV series ‘Bates Motel.’

All of this has done little to stop her from fulfilling her obligations to the cast and crew of ‘Oceans 8’ in which she stars in alongside Sandra Bullock, Helen Bonham Carter and Mindy Kaling.

When it’s due to be released?

June 8th 2018.

Rihanna‘s undying efforts to support the sovereign island of Barbados haven’t gone unnoticed by its people.

So, to honour the achievements she’s garnered since leaving the island as a teenager, she was invited to welcome Prince Harry of the British royal family to her homeland to celebrate its 50th year of independence away from British rule.

Once there, the pair made their way to the Kensington Oval cricket ground to enjoy the Golden Anniversary Spectacular Mega Concert.

For the last year, the only thing Rihanna fans have had to listen to is…silence.

The model’s eighth album ‘ANTI’ has been marred by such messy roll-out that radio silence is the only thing that’s saved the fiasco from being bigger than it’s been.

Now, four months after unveiling a cover for an album that wasn’t even finished, Ms. Fenty has officially waved the final flag on the embattled LP.

In a bid to re-rev the hype machine, the 27-year-old took to Twitter moments ago to share the following…

Much to the consternation of her fans the artist that is Grace Jones oft finds herself forgotten by an industry she helped to shape.

Perhaps unwilling to employ tactics used by her former rival Madonna to stay relevant recent years have seen Jones observe a new batch of Pop contenders rise to the top armed with concepts she created in her prime.

She isn’t impressed by this…at all.

How we know? She said so in her brand new autobiography in which she assesses the careers of Lady GaGa, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj and Miley Cyrus.

Chaos may be playing out behind the scenes with Rihanna‘s eighth studio album, however the star is maintaining composure in front of the masses.

The 26-year-old was tapped to headline DirecTV’s Super Saturday Night concert yesterday in Arizona ahead of this evening’s Super Bowl and brought Roc Nation comrade Kanye West out to join her.

By the look of these snaps, it seems Yeezy provided the lion-share of the show’s entertainment value.

‘We Found Love’ producer Calvin Harris may have seen global success with the hit song with its performer Rihanna, but now seems to have developed a hatred of their Roc Nation label mate Rita Ora.

For, weeks after the singer faced unproven claims that she cheated on the producer with ‘I Would’ singer Justin Bieber, she has now learned that he has blocked her from performing the #1 single he penned for her while they were together.

This, being the UK smash hit that was ‘I Will Never Let You Down.’

Why his surprising move is set to hurt Ora’s chances of cracking the US?

On the singles’ charts intermittent songstress Rihanna is not a force to be reckoned with, she is the forced to be reckoned with.

Surpassing or least matching many-a-Billboard Hot 100 placement stat of legendary acts like Madonna, Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson, and now even threatening Elvis Presley’s record, the pop princess has seen a reign unlike any of her contemporaries (or predecessors) given her less than a decade long tenure.

However, as the statistics that accompany her 7 studio albums in as many years reveals, the goat buck stops there.  For, five months ago we shared news that the ‘Disturbia’ diva had hit the 9.8 million albums sold mark.  Now, via refreshed reports, it appears she has barely passed the 10 million mark…of collective albums sold.

Is this bad news or just a sign of the times?  Weigh in below:
