🎶 “Love on the Brain”? Nah, Rihanna’s got errands on the brain.
Rihanna, who is apparently trying to out-baby the Duggar family, was seen in Los Angeles casually growing a whole human and shopping like it’s NBD. The 37-year-old pop icon, billionaire beauty mogul, and now professional voice-acting Smurf goddess stepped out on Tuesday (May 13) to run errands. We don’t know what she was buying, but we’re guessing it involved snacks, crystals, or maybe a tiny baby-sized Fenty onesie.
She rocked an oversized navy jersey (pregnancy chic, but also very “coach who forgot his whistle”) and some gray and pink sweatpants that screamed, “Yes, I’m comfy AND cooler than you.”
Oh, and in case you haven’t heard: Rih’s got baby #3 cooking in the Fenty oven! She and her equally genetically-blessed partner A$AP Rocky are adding another little superstar to their growing entourage. The current sibling lineup? RZA (3, already cooler than all of us), and Riot (21 months, probably has a skincare routine). Third kid’s name? TBD, but we’re putting money on “Rhythm” just to complete the R-trilogy.
But wait—this queen isn’t just growing a baby and buying snacks. She’s also saving the animated universe. That’s right, Rihanna is voicing Smurfette in the upcoming Smurfs movie, and the first trailer just dropped. And let us tell you—it’s giving blue, it’s giving fierce, it’s giving Smurf and slay.
Here’s the plot twist you didn’t know you needed:
Papa Smurf (voiced by John Goodman, aka everyone’s dream grandpa) gets snatched up by two evil wizards named Razamel and Gargamel (because obviously). Now it’s up to Smurfette (Rihanna!) to rally the Smurf squad and stomp into the real world for a magical rescue mission. Will she succeed? Will blue be the new black? Will there be glitter? Probably yes to all.
The cast is stacked like your fave brunch pancakes: James Corden, Nick Offerman, Daniel Levy, Sandra Oh, Octavia Spencer, Natasha Lyonne, Maya Erskine, Kurt Russell, and even Billie freaking Lourd. At this point, it’s basically Ocean’s 25: Smurf Heist Edition.
And as if Rihanna hadn’t done enough, she’s also dropping a brand new song for the film called “Friend of Mine” on Friday, May 16. It’s basically the anthem for cartoon loyalty, animated sass, and maybe baby-making (again?!).
Mark your calendars, grab your blue face paint, and get ready:
Smurfs hits theaters on July 18, and we’re already planning to go full Smurf-core.
Rihanna out here doing it all—shopping, birthing, singing, smurfing. Honestly? Iconic.
