Rihanna sent the internet into a frenzy after taking to social media to share a rare post featuring her daughter Rocki, who recently turned one. Along with the cute photos, the “Diamonds” singer shared a hilariously relatable caption: “Who let me have a daughter, bro?”

Fans took to the comments section to gush over the toddler, while others joked that Rihanna is already turning Rocki into a “mini diva.”

Rihanna, who shares two other children with her partner A$AP Rocky, previously opened up about her experience as a mom and her desire to create a family that “breaks generational curses.”

Rihanna Jokes ‘Who Let Me Have A Daughter?’ In Adorable Rocki Post

Rihanna took to Instagram on Saturday to share a post capturing some cute mother-daughter moments with Rocki, who turned 1 two weeks ago.

The photo carousel features the toddler showing off undeniable charm, already taking after her mother’s unmistakable flair and style.

In one post, Rocki is seen innocently sporting a wig, while another shows her crying after being denied a designer handbag. In a third clip, she struggles to take off a pair of sunglasses and a baseball hat her famous mom wore while being fed eggs.

But Rihanna’s relatable SOS-style caption warmed the hearts of many users. “Who let me have a daughter, bro?” she wrote.

Someone else wrote, “Rih, she’s so precious! I know you two will be besties.”

“Girl, you did… you really said ‘let me casually create a whole mini-Rihanna’ and look at her,” a different person penned before wishing Rocki a “happy first birthday.”

Aside from Rocki, Rihanna also shares sons RZA Athelston and Riot Rose with her partner, A$AP Rocky.

The two superstars have been together since 2020, and while they weren’t actively planning to start a family, she previously said they were “certainly not planning against it” either.

“I don’t know when I ovulate or any of that type of sh-t. We just had fun,” she told Vogue. “And then it was just there on the test. I didn’t waste any time. I called him inside and showed him. Then I was in the doctor’s office the next morning, and our journey began.”

“I always thought it would be marriage first, then a baby, but who the f-ck says it has to be that way,” she said at the time. “I’m certainly not gonna let that get in the way of me being a mom.”

Rihanna Wants Her Family To ‘Break Generational Curses’

Meanwhile, Rihanna was recently spotted enjoying some alone time in Paris as she attended Celine Dion’s residency before heading to her longtime favorite restaurant, César, per Vogue.

Amid her busy schedule juggling several sprawling businesses and a successful music career, the nine-time Grammy winner has consistently balanced it all with family life.

After welcoming her second child in 2023, she gave an interview to “Access Hollywood,” where she was asked what surprised her most about motherhood.

The singer revealed the kind of mother she hoped to be while noting that she wanted to create a family that “breaks generational curses.”

“You don’t have an idea,” Rihanna said at the time, per TODAY. “You just hope, ‘I can have kids one day, and I hope I can have them in love, and I hope that I can be a part of a family that breaks generational curses and moves forward and does new things and raises our kids better than we were raised and all the beautiful things.’”

A$AP Rocky Lets Slip That Rihanna Is ‘Cooking’ In The Studio

At the same time, fans may soon hear Rihanna sing again, as A$AP Rocky revealed she’s in the studio working on a new project.

During his wide-ranging interview with Jason Lee in August, the host asked whether he was the reason she hadn’t released a new project since 2016’s “Anti.”

But the “Praise The Lord” rapper told him “she’s in the studio” and is “cooking.”

“Yeah, I said it, sorry babe,” he continued, adding that he would “get in trouble for this,” per the BBC.

Well, this story certainly has a bone to pick with the definition of a happy family! Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story takes us back to one of America’s most infamous murder cases, where family drama gets very bloody and the question of “who did it?” comes with an axe-load of suspicion. With Lizzie Borden at the centre of the story, I was curious to see how the Monster series would put its own spin on this notorious case.

One of the things I enjoyed about this chapter of the Monster series is that it doesn’t simply focus on the famous “Lizzie Borden took an axe” story that most people already know. It tries to look beyond the headlines and explore Lizzie as a person, as well as the circumstances surrounding the murders of her father and stepmother.

I also enjoyed the appearance of Aileen, who provides another connection to the wider Monster universe. Her inclusion was an interesting touch and reminded me that this series is not only interested in the crimes themselves, but also in the infamous people behind them and the stories that have developed around their cases.

The comparison between Lizzie and Aileen is also interesting. Their stories are very different, but both demonstrate how notorious murder cases can become larger than the people involved. Their appearances add another layer to the series and its exploration of some of the most infamous names in true crime.

Unfortunately, this is where I started to feel that the series didn’t quite reach its full potential.

Lizzie Borden’s story is fascinating enough to carry a compelling series, but I found the pacing to be quite uneven. There were moments where the story had me interested and wanting to know what would happen next, but there were also sections that felt slow and dragged the overall experience down.

I also wanted more depth from some of the characters and storylines. There is plenty of material to work with, but at times it felt like the series was only scratching the surface. I would have liked to see more exploration of the relationships, motivations and circumstances surrounding Lizzie.

The atmosphere, however, works well. There is something naturally unsettling about watching a story based on real murders, particularly when the question of guilt has remained part of the fascination surrounding the case for so long.

The performances also help keep things together, and there were definitely moments that stood out. But for me, the series didn’t have the same impact that I would have hoped for from a Monster story.

The cast is definitely one of the stronger parts of Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story. Ella Beatty does a good job as Lizzie, especially in showing the character’s more troubled and complicated side. She brings a quiet intensity to the role that works particularly well during the darker moments. Vicky Krieps is also impressive as Bridget Sullivan, bringing plenty of personality and emotion to a character who becomes an important part of Lizzie’s story.

Rebecca Hall and Charlie Hunnam also make an impression as Abby and Andrew Borden. Their performances help create the tension within the Borden household and make the family dynamics feel increasingly uncomfortable. Billie Lourd brings a different energy as Emma, Lizzie’s sister, and adds another layer to the complicated family relationships.

And then there is Sarah Paulson as Aileen Wuornos. Paulson is always someone who knows how to completely disappear into a character, and her performance here is another reminder of that. Even though Aileen’s story is separate from Lizzie’s historically, Paulson gives the character a strong presence and helps connect the two stories thematically.

For me, the performances are one of the reasons I continued watching even when the pacing started to drag. The cast brings enough intensity to the material to keep the story moving, even when the writing doesn’t always hit the mark.

I wouldn’t say I disliked it. There is enough here to keep fans of true crime and the Monster series interested. However, I found myself wanting more from the story, especially considering how fascinating the real-life case is.

⭐ Rating: 3/5

Final verdict: Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story had all the ingredients for a killer story, but unfortunately it didn’t always chop it up into the most gripping television. The axe has fallen, the mystery remains, and Aileen adds an interesting connection to the Monster universe — but for me, this one was more “what the axe?” than “what a killer season!” It certainly has its moments, but ultimately, it left me wanting a little more bite.

Take a swing and watch Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story on Netflix.

Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg are gearing up for a big move!

After listing their Illinois home, rumors were swirling that they are headed to California to be closer to Wahlberg’s sons. When McCarthy saw that PEOPLE shared the news that the house is on the market, she dropped into their Instagram comments to set the record straight on just where they’re headed; and it’s not California.

Jenny McCarthy And Donnie Wahlberg Are Making A Big Move

Earlier this week, news broke that McCarthy and Wahlberg had listed their 7,236-square-foot St. Charles, Illinois home, with a listing price of $2.8 million. The home boasts 4 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, a “private backyard resort,” and is located on a cul-de-sac.

According to the listing, “An extraordinary St. Charles estate, transformed through extensive renovations and exceptional resort-style amenities. Set on approximately 1.26 professionally landscaped acres and backing to acres of open space in prestigious Woods of Fox Glen, this stately brick residence offers more than 10,000 square feet of beautifully updated living space designed for everyday comfort and unforgettable entertaining.”

When the news first broke, PEOPLE reported that the couple was possibly moving to California, but when McCarthy saw that, she wanted to set the record straight.

Sin City Or Bust!

Seeing the PEOPLE story on Instagram, McCarthy took to the comment section to clear up any rumors about moving to California.

“Going to Vegas. Not Cali,” she simply wrote in the comment section.

And while some may think this move came out of nowhere, it makes sense since the couple has been spending more time in Vegas during Wahlberg’s NKOTB residency. While his shows are happening at Park MGM’s Dolby Live, McCarthy has been known to set up a pop-up shop for her cosmetics brand, Formless Beauty. Her pop-up has been a part of the Blockhead HQ experience, where she also does meet-and-greets.

It Looked Like The Couple Could Be Headed To California

During an interview with PEOPLE back in December 2025, Wahlberg briefly discussed a possible move to California to be closer to his sons.

“I have a 24-year-old son, and I can’t tell you how many times he’s asked me in the last two years to move back to California to be close to him,” he said. “Probably the only thing that could ever get me back to California is my two sons. And if they keep asking, Jenny and I are probably going to start going on realtor.com and figuring things out.”

Wahlberg is dad to two adult sons, Xavier and Elijah, from his first marriage to Kim Fey, and McCarthy has one son, Evan, from her marriage to John Asher.

Jenny McCarthy Often Visits Desert Moon Wellness When In Vegas

McCarthy has been known to visit Desert Moon Wellness; a wellness center located in Las Vegas. The center offers “Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, PEMF, Light Therapy, and Vibroacoustic Therapy,” according to their website.

McCarthy has made cameos on the wellness center’s Instagram page multiple times.

One recent video is captioned, “Looking for the best wellness center in #lasvegas? Found it! @desertmoonwellnesslv has it all. IV therapy, HBOT, red light beds and more. The staff is so knowledgeable and kind! Maybe I’ll see you there. I usually go mid week for my IVs.”

Earlier this year, the wellness center also posted videos with McCarthy celebrating her Formless Beauty cosmetics line, as well as promoting some of her favorite therapies.

Mark Wahlberg’s Flecha Cantina Is In Vegas

Wahlberg’s brother, actor Mark Wahlberg, also has a house in Las Vegas, as well as a restaurant, Flecha Cantina.

Mark opened Flecha a few years ago in Town Square, located on the south end of the Las Vegas Strip. Flecha offers an extensive menu of authentic Mexican dishes, Sunday brunch, a margarita menu that will keep you coming back for more, and of course, they serve Mark’s tequila brand — Flecha Azul Tequila.

Could there be some family dinners in the future at Flecha? Sounds like there could be! Welcome to Sin City, Jenny and Donnie!

George Santos entered Fox’s “Special Forces” season 5 knowing he’d struggle on the competition reality show. Before being cast, the former politician was convicted of fraud and identity theft and sentenced to 87 months in prison.

Joining a show with established celebrities, George Santos thought it’d be difficult to connect with his co-stars, but according to him, it was quite the opposite. In fact, he connected with “Full House” star Candace Cameron Bure and gushed about how “awesome” a person she is.

George Santos Knew ‘Special Forces’ Would Be An ‘Uphill Battle’

Speaking with Us Weekly, Santos said he knew filming the series would be an “uphill battle” because of his complicated past. “These are celebrities — people with very public lives — and they’re trying to do the job, get the next job, and brand safety is a big thing,” he said.

According to Santos, he’s like a “nuclear football,” so he knew some cast members would try to avoid him whenever possible. He even said that there were “some cold initial introductions that evolved later” before revealing that he was “humbled by that.”

“The conversations post-show were very positive. My fellow cast members have been amazing and phenomenal to interact with and build relationships with,” he said.

George Santos Talks About His ‘Favorite’ Co-Star

Elsewhere during the interview, the former New York politician opened up about who he connected with most while filming the show.

“My favorite person in the cast — I know we shouldn’t do these things, but I’ll just say it, I don’t care — it was Candace,” Santos said, talking about the “Full House” star. “She’s such an awesome person, I genuinely love her. I mean, DJ Tanner [from Full House] — how could you not?”

George Santos Wasn’t Mad That Some Of His Castmates Tried To Keep Their Distance

Santos did share his thoughts on some of his co-stars trying to keep their distance from him. According to him, he brought the isolation “to myself,” and he said that he knows he has to prove to people that he’s more than what they read in the media.

He continued, “So it’s fine, I’m OK with that. I’m OK with people having that opinion and then at least getting to know me, which is what a lot of people in this cast did.”

Why Was Santos Sentenced To Prison?

3

According to The Blast, Santos was sentenced to 87 months in prison in 2025 after being convicted of fraud and aggravated identity theft.

The FBI charged Santos in 2023 after accusing him of leading a credit card fraud scheme and lying about his credentials.

During that time, Santos also made headlines after being accused of stealing money from a disabled war veteran.

The veteran, Richard Osthoff, claimed Santos promised to help him and his sick dog with $3,000 by setting up a GoFundMe. After successfully raising the money, Osthoff accused Santos of shutting down the page, fleeing, and becoming “increasingly difficult to contact.”

Santos Said Filming ‘Special Forces’ Was Harder Than His Time In Prison

Santos only served 12 weeks behind bars before President Donald Trump commuted his sentence, seemingly acknowledging Santos’ reported crimes while also offering grace. “There are many rogues throughout our Country that aren’t forced to serve seven years in prison,” Trump posted online, according to NPR.

And while some might assume life as an inmate would be Santos’ hardest challenge, think again. “You know, prison was hard. This was harder,” he said to Us Weekly. “This challenges you. I mean, prison tortures you … [but] this really demands you to actually show up all the time, whereas in our broken incarceratory system in this country, you’re just meat.”

Jay-Z and Beyoncé have reached another major milestone with their iconic “Crazy in Love” music video.

The collaboration has officially joined the exclusive club of YouTube videos that have surpassed one billion views.

At the time, it also topped charts in several countries. It was no surprise, then, that it earned three nominations at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards in 2004. It won Best R&B Song and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration but lost out on Record of the Year.

Beyoncé continues to recognize the song’s impact, including “Crazy in Love” in the setlist for her most recent tour, the 2025 Cowboy Carter Tour.

It became her sixth album to do so, joining “Lemonade,” “Renaissance,” “The Lion King: The Gift,” “Beyoncé: More Only,” and her self-titled album.

Within a week of its release, it earned 38,000 equivalent album units in the United States. Fans seemed eager to hear both the original tracks and the additions, bringing the total to 31.

The new additions include “Can I Watch You” featuring Pharrell, “Cuerpo (Tumbao)” with Maluma, and a Spanish-language rendition of “Irreplaceable.” The latter samples Selena’s 1992 classic “Como La Flor.”

Her husband cheers Beyoncé on as she continues to reach new milestones. Despite being a popular artist with several awards to his name, Jay-Z recently revealed that he still looks to his wife for inspiration.

“I’m super inspired by her,” he told Extra at the New York City premiere of his “Jay-Z in 8” documentary. “I think she’s a phenomenal producer and writer.”

He went on to describe his famous wife as “fearless” before showering her with more praise for her talents.

“She tries all kinds of stuff. Some things she does I’m like, ‘I couldn’t do that,’” he said. “She’s very adventurous, and her recall is amazing. She’s an amazing producer. I think because she’s such an extraordinary singer, people underrate her as a producer. She’s one of the best I’ve ever seen.”

Jay-Z Admits He Gets More Nervous For Blue Ivy Than Himself

Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s daughter, Blue Ivy, has recently followed in their footsteps.

The young star has appeared as a dancer on both the Renaissance and Cowboy Carter world tours. She has also released several songs and been featured on several others.

Speaking about his daughter’s pursuits, Jay-Z told the outlet that he remains supportive as she continues to grow.

“I’m more nervous for her than I am for myself,” the rapper told the outlet. “Yeah, for sure. But she put in the work, and she’s a student, and she loves it. So, just to watch her find a way is just extraordinary as well.”

Olivia Rodrigo turned a lyric into a show-stopping visual during the opening night of her “The Unraveled Tour.” While performing “The Cure” in Hartford, Connecticut, on September 25, the 23-year-old singer stood beneath pouring artificial rain as her white dress appeared to dissolve before the audience’s eyes. The dramatic transformation exposed a bold red look underneath, bringing the song’s “I’m unraveled” lyric to life and delivering one of the concert’s most memorable moments.

Olivia Rodrigo’s White Dress ‘Melts’ Beneath The Rain

Rodrigo did not disappear backstage for a traditional costume change when it came time to perform “The Cure.” Instead, she remained in full view as rain began falling across the stage. The white material covering her red costume gradually came apart, leaving strips of fabric hanging from the outfit as the transformation unfolded.

The striking effect made it appear as though Rodrigo’s dress was melting directly onto the stage. With her hair soaked and the artificial rain pouring around her, Rodrigo stretched out her arms and allowed the theatrical reveal to become part of the performance.

The moment was especially fitting because “The Cure” features the lyric “I’m unraveled,” a line that connects directly to the tour’s title and its broader visual concept.

‘The Unraveled Tour’ Moves Through Four Seasons

Rodrigo’s opening-night wardrobe was designed around the four-season concept that shapes the production. The singer reportedly wore six distinct looks and completed five costume changes throughout the concert, with each outfit helping introduce a different chapter of the show.

The performance began in Spring, placing Rodrigo inside a colorful, garden-inspired environment filled with flowers, bright imagery, and vibrant lighting. The Spring scene kicked things off on a high before Rodrigo cranked up the heat and pushed the show into Summer.

The Spring colors gave way to sun-soaked Summer visuals as Rodrigo slipped into another look and kept the party going. But the bright mood did not last, with the stage eventually fading into a purple twilight that signaled a darker emotional turn.

Rodrigo then emerged in a purple leather dress and moved into a more intimate acoustic portion of the show. The quieter section allowed her to slow down and connect more directly with the Hartford audience.

‘The Cure’ Delivers The Show’s Winter Climax

The mood grew darker when the concert entered its Autumn chapter. The stage’s brighter colors disappeared as the production adopted a more melancholic atmosphere, preparing the audience for Winter and the night’s biggest costume reveal. That was when the rain began falling during “The Cure.”

Rodrigo’s white dress slowly fell apart under the rain, revealing a bold red look hiding underneath. Against the dark stage, the jaw-dropping switch gave Winter its biggest visual moment and cranked up the song’s emotional drama. The reveal also allowed Rodrigo to complete a wardrobe transformation without interrupting the performance or breaking the audience’s immersion.

Once the rain-soaked climax ended, the production began moving toward Spring again, completing the concert’s seasonal circle. The return to Spring suggested renewal after the darker Autumn and Winter sections, allowing the show to finish its visual journey where it began.

Fans Praise Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Genius’ Dress Transformation

Rodrigo’s dramatic costume reveal quickly earned praise from viewers, who applauded the way she brought the tour’s central theme to life onstage. One fan compared the transformation to something out of “The Hunger Games,” writing, “Oh wow, she is giving real-time ‘Hunger Games.’ A genius move by her stylist! Mother.”

Another viewer celebrated the imperfect, rain-soaked look of the dissolving dress, writing, “I love the way it turned out. I think it’s very raw and cool and punk rock of her.” Others were particularly impressed by how the costume change connected to the meaning of “The Cure” and the name of “The Unraveled Tour.” “She did not just perform the visual concept. She turned ‘unraveled’ into a live special effect,” the user said.

Olivia Rodrigo Launches A Massive 65-Date Tour

“The Unraveled Tour” will take Rodrigo across North America, Europe and the United Kingdom over 65 scheduled dates. The tour supports her third studio album, “You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love,” which was released through Geffen Records on June 12.

The project reportedly reached No. 1 in more than 20 countries and received praise for its confessional songwriting and Rodrigo’s continued artistic growth. “Drop Dead,” the album’s lead single, was released on April 17 and serves as the tour’s opening number.

The tour is currently scheduled to conclude on May 10, 2027, at London’s O2 Arena. With dozens of performances still ahead, the ambitious production will give audiences around the world a chance to experience its elaborate staging and transformative costumes.

The Hartford show marked the first time Rodrigo performed the full production in front of a live audience, making the dissolving dress reveal one of the tour’s earliest viral-ready moments.
