Rihanna and A$AP Rocky had a mom and dad’s night out at the 2025 Gotham Awards on Monday night (Dec. 1), where the couple gushed about each other and their growing family on the red carpet.
Speaking to Extra TV at the event — which comes a little more than two months after the couple welcomed their third baby, daughter Rocki — the Fenty mogul gushed that she’s “so proud” of her partner for accomplishing so much in the acting world. At the event, the rapper was nominated for the breakthrough performance award for his role in Highest 2 Lowest, though Souleymane’s Story‘s Abou Sangaré wound up taking home the prize.
“Every time I see him on camera in a movie, I’m like, ‘What?’” Ri told the outlet. “I get amazed, because I didn’t know he had it in him. But he’s such a great talent.”
Of her three kids, the singer added that her brood is doing “amazing.” In September, Ri and Rocky brought baby Rocki into the world, giving sons RZA, 3, and Riot Rose, 2, a little sister. “They’re all getting bigger,” Rihanna said. “I cannot take it. My sons, their faces are changing, their necks are getting longer.”
On the carpet, Ri rocked an eye-catching pink Balenciaga gown and feather hat, while Rocky went for a classic black suit and pinstripe tie. The rapper also spoke to press at the event, at one point telling E! News that his life with his partner and their kids is a “dream come true.”
“Every day is date night… it’s awesome,” he added of Rih in addition to sharing his family’s plans for their first holiday season with three kids. “I’m looking forward to white Christmas with snow and some chestnuts roasting. Logs in the fireplace — stuff like that.”
Ri and Rocky certainly have a lot to celebrate this year end. In addition to the latter earning recognition for his acting projects, he also co-chaired the 2025 Met Gala this past May. The former starred in the new Smurfs movie, which premiered in July, and on the same day as the Gotham Awards, she learned that her 2016 album, Anti, had spent a milestone 500 weeks on the Billboard 200.
“God ain’t forget bout me!” she wrote on X of the feat, which marks the longest amount of time an album by a Black female soloist has ever spent on the chart.

Rankings for the Top Movie Songs chart are based on song and film data provided by Tunefind and ranked using a formula blending that data with sales and streaming information tracked by Luminate during the corresponding period of September 2025. The ranking generally includes newly released films from the preceding three months, with exceptions given to movies whose music is still experiencing a high volume of public interest.
Despite its June premiere, KPop Demon Hunters has remained a pop culture force, paced by its multiweek Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 “Golden” by HUNTR/X, which also stays at the top of the latest Top Movie Songs ranking. In October 2025, it earned 177 million official on-demand U.S. streams and sold 38,000 downloads, according to Luminate. The track also led the Hot 100 for two weeks that month (Oct. 4-11) and has spent the most recent five frames at No. 2.
The rest of Top Movie Songs’ top seven is occupied by songs from the fictional KPop Demon Hunters groups HUNTR/X and Saja Boys, plus soloists EJAE and Andrew Choi, with Saja Boys’ “Soda Pop” leading the rest of the pack at No. 2 (88.2 million streams, 12,000 downloads).
After KPop Demon Hunters, the top song comes from Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere, the Bruce Springsteen biopic that premiered on Oct. 24. Springsteen’s “Hungry Heart” appears at No. 8 with 2.1 million streams and 1,000 downloads; it was his first top 20 on the Hot 100 in its day, eventually peaking at No. 5 in 1980.

Sabrina Carpenter wrapped up her Short n’ Sweet Tour with a 70th show in Los Angeles on Sunday night (Nov. 23), as she took the Crypto.com Arena stage for a final time to close out her SNS era.
Carpenter has “arrested” an array of celebrities throughout the tour, but surprised fans attending night six in L.A. on Sunday by putting Miss Piggy under arrest, with the help of Bobo the Bear.
With SC set to star in and co-executive produce Seth Rogen’s The Muppets Show Disney+ reboot, the unlikely crossover does make sense.
“I’d know that face anywhere,” Carpenter told Miss Piggy, who was accompanied by her security guard, Bobo the Bear. “Excuse me, what is your name?”
Miss Piggy had some fun with the moment, even snapping some selfies with fans nearby. “There are so, so many people here tonight,” said the Muppet.
A surprised SC replied: “No one has prepared me for you being here, actually. Are you enjoying the show?” Miss Piggy looked as if she was having a blast, letting everyone know that she was “loving it,” but had a few suggestions for the pop star.
Carpenter continued: “You’re so funny, Miss Piggy, wow! You’re like the only celebrity I get nervous to be around. I’m getting really flustered … We’ve arrested so many beautiful individuals and I feel like tonight is your night.”
However, when Sabrina pulled out the fuzzy pink cuffs, Bobo took it upon himself to handcuff Miss Piggy and escort her out of Crypto.com Arena. “I brought my own, thanks. Let’s go, Pig … Tell it to the judge, sister,” the Muppet bear said.
Sunday was the sixth date in this final leg’s run for the Short n’ Sweet Tour, which came to a close with show No. 70. Before Ms. Piggy, L.A. was treated to arrests of SZA, Elle and Dakota Fanning as well as Maya Rudolph.

Carrie Underwood is an eight-time Grammy winner, a three-time ACM entertainer of the year winner, an American Idol judge, an actress and a businesswoman — and she’s also a mom to two sons, Jacob and Isaiah. Thus, Underwood is well-acquainted with the scourge facing countless parents right now: Kids’ obsession with the phrase “6-7.” The trend has become so popular, in fact, that it was named Dictionary.com’s Word of the Year.
During a preview clip for American Idol‘s upcoming season, Underwood greets a contestant on the show, Uzziah Hutchinson, who works with kids and references the popular catchphrase.
“I bet you get a lot of funny stories,” Underwood says, with the contestant replying, “Right now, it’s ‘6-7.’”
Immediately, Underwood begins mimicking the hand gesture that goes with the catchphrase, which is wildly popular with school-age kids. “6-7” originally came from the song “Doot Doot (6 7)” by rapper Skrilla, in reference to NBA star LaMelo Ball’s height, but it’s mostly just become extremely popular for students to repeat — and an annoyance for many parents and teachers.
Fortunately, Underwood has a scheme to get the “6-7” craze to halt.
“Here’s how we stop that, Uzziah. I have the cure,” Underwood says. “Every time the kids say ‘6-7,’ we have to immediately say [singing], ‘5-3-0-9,’” she says — referencing Tommy Tutone’s Billboard Hot 100 top five hit “867-5309/Jenny” from 1982.
“That’ll work!” Uzziah said.
“And if we all band together and do that, it will stop,” Underwood insists. “It’s gonna take all of us.”
Season 24 of American Idol will launch on Jan. 26 — exactly 67 days from now — welcoming back Underwood as a judge alongside Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie. The music competition airs on ABC and streams on Hulu.

When KPop Demon Hunters fever came to the Top Gabb Music Songs chart in July, listeners seemed more inclined to stream Saja Boys, the Netflix film’s demon boy band, than HUNTR/X, the girl group trio hunting them down.
But now the tides have turned, as HUNTR/X’s “Golden” not only reigns for a second month on the October 2025 chart; the group’s “How It’s Done” also rises to No. 2.
Billboard has partnered with Gabb Wireless, a phone company for kids and teens, to present a monthly chart tracking on-demand streams via its Gabb Music platform. Gabb Music offers a vast catalog of songs, all of which are selected by the Gabb team to include only kid- and teen-appropriate content. Gabb Music streams are not currently factored into any other Billboard charts.
The October 2025 chart marks the third published ranking since Gabb Music was made available via app stores, meaning users can now download the streaming app to devices other than Gabb Wireless’ phones and tablets.
In July, Saja Boys’ “Your Idol” crowned the ranking, followed by a pair of HUNTR/X songs in “Golden” and “Takedown” at Nos. 2 and 3. Saja Boys’ “Soda Pop” ruled the August survey, followed by the aforementioned “How It’s Done” and “Your Idol,” and “Golden” ascended to the throne in September, with the two Saja Boys tunes in hot pursuit.
But this time, HUNTR/X becomes the first of the warring groups to occupy the entire top two thanks to “How It’s Done” rising to No. 2, while “Soda Pop” and “Your Idol” must be content with Nos. 3 and 4, respectively.
With a second month at No. 1, “Golden” is the first song to reign for multiple months since Forrest Frank’s “Your Way’s Better” ruled between April and June.
“Golden” topped the multimetric, weekly Billboard Hot 100 for two frames in October, reigning on the Oct. 4 and 11 lists. It appears at No. 2 on the latest (Nov. 22-dated) tally.
While music from KPop Demon Hunters remains ubiquitous on the latest Top Gabb Music Songs ranking, occupying seven of the top eight positions for the second month in a row, October marks the first time since the songs’ July debut that something else seeps into the top five: Alex Warren’s “Ordinary,” which lifts one position to No. 5.
One song debuts on the October chart, though it’s not a newly released song. Billie Eilish and Khalid’s 2018 collaboration “Lovely” bows at No. 24, over six years after the song peaked at No. 64 on the Hot 100 in January 2019. It’s Khalid’s first appearance on Top Gabb Music Songs since the ranking’s October 2024 inception, while Eilish has previously made the 25-positon survey with “Wildflower.”

We’re just one day away from the release of Wicked: For Good.
Throughout the month of November thus far, it’s been all about Wicked mania in preparation for the film. Many brands have been dropping Wicked-themed products left and right for fans of the magic franchise, hoping to tide them over before they head back to the wonderful world of Oz.
Now Yoto, the parent-owned and operated children’s audio tech company, is getting in on all the fun with the release of their Wicked: The Soundtrack Card for $11.99, discounted from $14.99. This soundtrack card can be used with the brand’s Yoto Player, sold separately, giving your little ones control of their tunes. If your child is just as big of a fan of Wicked as everyone else is, this Yoto soundtrack card and a separate Yoto Player would make a great gift for the holidays.

Yoto soundtrack card.
The soundtrack card features 56 minutes of pure fun, including tracks from the first half of the Wicked franchise along with tracks from Wicked: For Good sung by the likes or Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo and Jonathan Bailey, among others. You’ve got hit tracks that have made their way onto the Billboard charts, like “Defying Gravity,” “No One Mourns the Wicked,” “The Wizard and I” and “Popular.”
The Yoto Player is kind of like a kid-friendly boombox, made for tiny hands and ears ages 3 to 12+. The player currently comes in two sizes: Yoto Player (3rd Generation) for $81.99 and the more compact Yoto Mini for $63.99. Both are on sale at the time of writing. While there are some differences in the sizes, the biggest thing to note is that the 3rd Generation produces acoustically engineered stereo sound, while the mini produces mono sound, meaning a single-channel audio format. Stereo uses two channels to create a room-filling kind of sound, giving your audio a more dynamic feel. If you or your child are a stickler for good audio, go for the 3rd Gen Yoto Player.
