Billionaire Rihanna reveals surprisingly budget pregnancy craving… while ex Chris Brown returns to court
Rihanna may be worth over $1.4 billion, but she's not too rich for a fast food fix.
The 37-year-old superstar, currently expecting her third child with A$AP Rocky, was spotted indulging a budget-friendly craving at the iconic Southern California burger chain Fatburger on Friday.
Dressed in a ruffled light brown summer dress with a baseball cap and Puma sneakers, the Fenty Beauty mogul looked runway-ready—even with a fast food drink in hand.
Pregnancy craving or not, she still pulled off her signature style with ease.
Rihanna appeared in high spirits during the outing, despite still mourning the loss of her father Ronald Fenty, who tragically passed away in May at age 70.
Meanwhile, her ex Chris Brown was back in court—this time in the UK—where he pleaded not guilty to an alleged bottle attack at a London nightclub.
Appearing at Southwark Crown Court this morning, 36-year-old singer pleaded not guilty to charges stemming from an alleged assault on music producer Abraham Diaw in February 2023.
Brown—who previously made headlines in 2009 for violently assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna, a case that led to a felony conviction and lasting public backlash—is now accused of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm with intent.
Prosecutors allege that Brown, alongside co-defendant Omololu Akinlolu, 38—a rapper and producer from Dallas—carried out the attack at the Tape nightclub in Hanover Square, Mayfair, on February 19, 2023.
Both men face charges of causing grievous bodily harm and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
In addition, Brown is facing a separate charge for possession of an offensive weapon.
Meanwhile, Rihanna has not yet publicly addressed the death of her father.
Previously, Rihanna and her father were estranged before they eventually reconciled in recent years.
In 2019, she sued her dad and claimed he capitalized on her business empire.
In her filing, she alleged that his Fenty Management talent firm profited off of her Fenty Beauty line and other trademarked eponymous ventures.
Two years later, she filed to dismiss the lawsuit and had seemingly mended her relationship with him.
In 2023, when Rihanna and Rocky were expecting their second child together, Fenty gushed over his daughter and shared his excitement of becoming a grandfather to another one of their babies.
Fenty shared three children with his ex-wife Braithwaite including Rihanna, Rajad and Rorrey.
Around the time Rihanna's career in music was taking off in 2002, her parents split up.
In addition to Rihanna, Fenty is survived by his grandchildren including Rihanna and Rocky's sons RZA, two, Riot Rose, 18 months, and their baby on the way.
He is also survived by his other children Rajad, Rorrey as well as Kandy, Samantha, Jamie and multiple grandchildren.
Last month, Rihanna insisted her new album won't be delayed too much by her pregnancy.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the Umbrella hitmaker was asked if the album - which has been dubbed 'R9' - will be 'put on pause even longer'.
She insisted: 'No, maybe a couple of videos.'

Cubs legend Sammy Sosa returns to Wrigley Field after 20-plus year hiatus
Legendary Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa returned to Wrigley Field for the first time in more than 20 years on Friday before Chicago's afternoon game with the Seattle Mariners. Sosa, who is set to be inducted into the Cubs' team Hall of Fame this year, arrived at the iconic North Side ballpark in a black SUV. He was greeted by owner Tom Ricketts, who embraced him in a hug as he exited the vehicle. Sosa became the face of the Cubs franchise where he played 13 seasons after coming in a trade from the crosstown White Sox in March 1992. A seven-time All-Star, Sosa hit 545 homers in 1,811 games with the Cubs and hit a franchise-record 66 in 1998 when he was named the NL's MVP. Sammy's home. Sosa, now 56, played his final game with the Cubs at Wrigley on 2 October 2004, when he homered and had two hits in an 8-6 loss to Atlanta. During his years with the Cubs, Sosa appeared to bulk up drastically and was a headliner in a generation of baseball's biggest names linked to performance-enhancing drugs. The Cubs traded him to Baltimore with cash in February 2005 for three players. Sosa appeared to acknowledge using performance-enhancing drugs in December when he released a statement saying he was sorry for mistakes, without specifying them. 'There were times I did whatever I could to recover from injuries in an effort to keep my strength up to perform over 162 games,' he said in the statement. 'I never broke any laws. But in hindsight, I made mistakes and I apologize.' On Friday morning, Sosa posed for photos with rising Cubs star Pete Crow-Armstrong outside the team's clubhouse and a video showed Sosa embracing manager Craig Counsell in his office before the game. The Cubs remained mum, however, on any ceremony or event before or during Friday's game. In Thursday's 8-7 loss to Milwaukee, Crow-Armstrong went deep to set a new team record for reaching 20 homers and 20-plus stolen stolen bases the fastest, doing it in 73 games. Sosa had the old mark of 96, set in 1994.

I've been a bridesmaid five times... the amount I've spent on weddings is jaw-dropping
A woman has shared the eye-watering amount that she's forked over for friends' weddings - joking she 'could have put a down payment on a house' with the amount she's spent. Sacramento-based Shannon Detrick, 30, revealed she's been a bridesmaid in five of her close friends weddings - and she broke down the total cost. She explained in the now-viral TikTok that for the first bachelorette party, which was held in Palm Springs, Shannon spent $965, with the wedding being held semi locally and costing her $916. 'Bachelorette number two was for one of my high school BFFs, it was in Miami, and [I] spent $1,425,' she said. The wedding was local again, costing Shannon $522. The third bachelorette party was held in New Orleans, Louisiana, coming to a total of $1,536. The wedding took place in Denver, meaning they had to fly out, which cost her another $1,782. 'Bachelorette number four was in Sonoma [California], it was her 30th birthday so we kind of balled out,' she admitted, revealing the total she spent was $1,676. The wedding was held in Maine, with accommodation and flights coming to $1,982. The fifth celebration was a joint party held in Scottsdale, with Shannon's husband's cost included in the total, which was $2,978. That wedding cost her another $1,081. In total, Shannon spent $14,863 on five bachelorettes and weddings, spending an average of $1,256 on the weddings and $1,716 on the bachelorette festivities. She added her time as a bridesmaids isn't over yet, with upcoming maid of honor duties for her sister's wedding and bachelorette coming soon. 'Love all of these people SO MUCH and would do any one of these events over in a heart beat,' she captioned the post. She continued: 'But its always important to remember that saying "yes" comes with a [price] tag! 'Brides/couples: be very open with your wedding party before expecting them to say yes. 'Also be flexible with your expectations for things like travel, bachelorette parties, etc. in this economy.' 'Your friends (usually) WANT to be there for you!' she added. 'Bridesmaids/wedding party: make the most out of the trips! Its such a special time for your people and being by their side is truly so special.' According to The Knot, the average cost of being a bridesmaid is between $1,200 to $1,800 but said it could be as high as $2,950. Many bridesmaids have taken to social media to share their qualms over being invited to be a part of someone's big day - with an astronomical price tag. Earlier in the year, a woman posted a lengthy message to Reddit, sharing her concerns over an upcoming wedding after the bride told her bridal party she expected them to cover huge financial costs of her pre-wedding events. 'When asking us to be in the wedding party, the bride made it clear she expected bridesmaids to pay for our dresses, alterations, and to be present for the rehearsal and wedding,' the woman explained in the Reddit post, shared to the Am I The A**hole Subreddit. She offered to either pay for makeup OR hair for me (the maid-of-honor) but said the bridesmaids can pay extra to have those done the day of the event,' she explained. The woman added that the other bridesmaids have expressed concern about escalating costs, which she also shares. However, when she spoke with the bride, she suggested that it would be easiest for the bridesmaids to understand the total costs they're expected to incur for the wedding, including dress, alterations, bridal shower, bachelorette, and any incidentals. 'I argued (politely) that we need to have an idea of what's expected of us, and it's not on us to create/manage the budget for her wedding,' she explained. 'I asked for a clear spreadsheet of our expected expenses so I can speak with the bridesmaids and make a plan,' she shared. 'Is it normal for bridesmaids to not know what's expected of them? I don't know much about weddings or being MOH and want her to have an amazing wedding without breaking the bank for the other ladies,' the woman shared, adding: 'I'm never saying yes to MOH again.' After speaking with the bride, the bridal party was given an estimate of $1,000 each. 'This is much higher than the initial $100 on a dress and alterations,' she pointed out. Reddit users agreed that the bridesmaids shouldn't be wildly out of pocket to cover someone else's wedding.
