As Megan Thee Stallion fans (affectionately called #Hotties) anxiously await official news about her sophomore studio album, the follow-up 2020’s ‘Good News,’ the Rap diva has name-dropped a number of superstars she’s hoping will contribute to the baking project.

First making headlines for saying she wanted to do a collaboration with her ‘Future Nostalgia Tour’ mate Dua Lipa (as we reported here), Stallion later revealed she had her sights set on entire duet EP with Jazmine Sullivan (as we reported here).

And while those names were certainly enough to get the #Hotties salivating, Meg recently took to press to add even bigger divas to the pot:  Rihanna and Adele.

R&B bad boys Chris Brown and Trey Songz have had their fair share of woes with the civil and criminal courts over the years, but recently the Virgina-born singers respectively topped headlines for what could be their costliest legal battle yet.

As reported here and here, Brown and Songz are facing separate $20 million lawsuits from women who claim they were sexually assaulted by the ‘Wait’ duo.

And though both have denied the accusations, the lawyer representing the women – Ariel Mitchell – took to press to not only say she has proof the two are lying but also clap back at critics who say the multi-million dollar payout attached to the suits is too high.

As ratings of the Academy Awards plummet year after year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) – in a bid to increase the show’s resonance with social media users – recently announced the introduction of a new way to honor films based on viewer votes.

Called #OscarsFanFavorite. the award (which reportedly isn’t an actual Oscar) is a nod to the popular movies of the year that may have been shut out of the nomination pool of the 24 competitive categories handed out every year.

With the race to the finish line heating up among some of the year’s film favorites, a peek at the polls reveals Amazon Prime’s ‘Cinderella’ may be riding its carriage right to the winner’s circle at the 94th annual edition of the awards ceremony.

This week, From The Vault is back with another bang.

Birthday girl Rihanna’s bopalicious ‘Where Have You Been’ is today’s pick.

Released in 2012 as the fifth single from the singer’s sixth effort ‘Talk That Talk,’ it was helmed by what can only be described as a Pop dream team. With the ever-reliable Ester Dean on songwriting duties, it was produced by Dr. Luke, Cirkut, and Calvin Harris.

The release was met with glowing reviews and reached the Top 5 in many countries including the US, the UK, France, and Australia.

Dave Meyers was tasked with directing the song’s video resulting in a home run of a visual. The choreography-heavy affair was a true departure for Ms. Fenty who up to that point relied mostly on beauty shots, high-fashion, and edgy cinematography to bring her catalog to life. Inspired by African and Hindu cultures, it was compared to early 00’s videos by Janet Jackson, Britney Spears and Jennifer Lopez.

The resulting clip was nominated for two MTV Video Music Awards, including Best Choreography.

Where had that Rihanna been all our lives, indeed?

***********

With a baby on the way, the Bajan belle’s next musical move probably won’t be coming up anytime soon. With that being said, we sincerely hope that when the time is ripe, THIS RiRi will be the one making a comeback. It’s been clear that when she commits to the cause, she can deliver something super exciting.

In the meantime, we can always fall back on this song, video, and accompanying performances.

Happy birthday, Ms. Robyn Rihanna Fenty!

Though James kept mum on the diss, Cardi wasn’t having it.  Look inside to see how her response fueled a Nicki Minaj-inspired clap back from Owens.
