Over the years, Rihanna has been the most sought-after celebrity on the Met Gala red carpet. Coincidentally, one of her most notable acting roles was her portrayal of Nine Ball in Ocean’s 8—the hilarious action film starring Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Sarah Paulson, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter, Mindy Kaling, and Awkwafina—in which a group of women set out to pull off a massive heist during fashion’s biggest night out.
These days, Rih is preparing for her greatest role to date: motherhood. In doing so, she expressed to Vogue that her biggest fear is her child not being a fellow lover of fashion, but she’s open to learning and teaching much more. “They’re going to teach me more than I could ever teach them. And I want them to go for it. I want to see who they are in the world, who they become because I’m just here to keep them on the rails—a passenger as much as the driver,” she shared.
