‘I See Why You Keep Getting Pregnant’: Rihanna Shows Off Her Baby Bump In Racy Photo Shoot, Fans See Why A$AP ROCKY Can’t Keep His Hands Off Her

Rihanna has everyone’s attention with her new stripped-down photo shoot. The singer turned up the summer heat when she posted a series of images on Instagram to promote the latest Savage X Fenty drop.

To fans’ delight, little was left to the imagination as she posed in a red thong and matching bra. With rolls of fabric as her backdrop, the billionaire beauty and fashion mogul gave fans an eyeful as she flaunted her curves.

The 35-year-old is currently expecting her second child, but a growing belly has not stopped her from feeling sexy and confident enough to give the camera a shot at her backside. 

In the comments, groves of supporters flocked to share the thoughts that were running rampant through their minds.

One person wrote, “I see why you keep getting pregnant.” Another person said she was “The Baddest pregnant woman ever.” A third comment read, “Keep this up and your going stay pregnant.”

The music superstar revealed during her Super Bowl Halftime show in February that she and her boyfriend, A$AP Rocky, were expecting their second child together. The unexpected reveal came just seven months after the couple gave birth to their firstborn, a son.

They managed to keep their little one’s name under wraps for nearly a year until reports surfaced days ahead of his first birthday, disclosing that his name is RZA.

For months, the paparazzi had snapped photos of Rihanna wearing shirts representing Wu-Tang Clan and RZA, who is a member of the legendary rap group, without so much as a hint that there was a link to her son.   

And a fourth person, like many others, could not help but jokingly comment, “And bet not NOBODY say nothin about her being a mom.”

Rihanna is among the handful of female celebrities whose risqué photos have been caught in the fray of Keke Palmer and boyfriend Darius Jackson’s mom-shaming controversy.

Unlike Palmer, the Bajan artist’s desire to continue dressing provocatively has netted praise. She attended A$AP’s recent performance at the Cannes Lions Festival in a sheer diamond-patterned jumpsuit that gave onlookers a good look at her figure and the sparkly undergarments she wore. 

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
