Rihanna’s Empowering Pregnancy Is Not Fo...

About this episode

On the show today…

The first images from the upcoming movie Joker: Folie à Deux, the sequel to the Oscar-winning movie starring Joaquin Phoenix, have been released via Lady Gaga’s Instagram page, showing her for the first time as the iconic Harley Quinn. Although we’re now a little worried for her mental health.

Plus, in a twist you probably saw coming, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck just got matching love tattoos that look straight off an early 2000’s Pinterest board, which we were ok with until we clocked exactly what JLO was trying to promote.

And look, it’s just the week of Rihanna, don’t try to fight it. After her epic Super Bowl halftime show, which included a pregnancy reveal, she’s now on the cover of Vogue talking run-ins with the paparazzi and her changed body. But now there’s an empowering conversation taking place around her pregnancy, but this perceived change doesn’t apply to everybody.
