Rihanna and Rocky in Paris (ft. Pharrell)
From Milan to Paris, the fashion week heatscore has been Heated Rivalry star Hudson Williams, but Paris fashion week brings out many big names. To wit, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky are there, too, and were out for dinner last night. Yesterday afternoon? Whatever. Time means nothing when the temperature is officially “freeze your bingus off”.
Riri and Rocky look like they’ve just emerged from the Matrix. What I love about Rihanna and Rocky as a celebrity couple is how they always seem like they’ve just arrived from another planet. If you told me Rihanna is friends with Zaphod Beeblebrox, I would 100% believe you, no questions asked.
Rocky is in Paris for business, performing at the Gala des pièces jaune, a French children’s hospital fundraiser, and he also had new music featured in Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton show. This following Rocky’s performance on SNL last weekend of his new single “Punk Rocky”:
His fourth album, Don’t Be Dumb, just came out last week, after an eight-year hiatus. Oh, he released new music after a long break? Rihanna, is any of that feeling catching? No? Okay.
Speaking of Pharrell, his whole family joined him in Paris. I bring this up because I want to know the names of his now nine-year-old triplets. Pharrell and his wife, Helen, have a teenaged son named Rocket. They’ve never officially released or confirmed their triplets’ name. I want to know! Did they give them wholly individual names, or did they do something themey? Do the names “fit” with Rocket? Is that the genre of name? Or did they go a different direction?
Given the mess we’re witnessing with the Beckhams, I truly do support celebrity parents keeping their kids out of the spotlight—and parents keeping their kids off the internet, in general—but I am nosy about names. Knowing Pharrell’s oldest son is named Rocket just makes me SO curious about the other kids’ names! I don’t need to know about the kids or even see them, I just want the names!
