A Timeline of A$AP Rocky & Rihanna’s Relationship

Rocky wore a black suit, black Ray-Bans and a full set of grillz to the premiere of the Spike Lee-directed film — in which he co-stars opposite Denzel Washington — while Rihanna showed off her growing baby bump in an electric-blue dress with strategic cutouts and a scarf tie at the neck. The expectant couple posed together on the carpet under their umbrella as raindrops fell all around them, and Rocky posed elsewhere on the carpet cradling Rihanna’s belly with his chin resting on her shoulder.

It was the second time this month that fans have gotten to see the couple at a red-carpet event, following Rihanna’s baby-bump reveal at the Met Gala in New York City on May 5 when fans learned the couple is expecting baby No. 3. Rocky talked to reporters on the Met Gala carpet and celebrated letting their big news out into the world. “It feels amazing, you know?” he said in an Associated Press video. “We were tired of holding that, and it was time to show the people what we was cooking up. I’m glad everybody’s happy for us, because we’re definitely happy.”

The crime thriller Highest 2 Lowest reunites Lee and Washington for a fifth time, with A$AP Rocky co-starring as Washington’s son, Yung Felon. The project also serves as Ice Spice’s feature film debut.

The film is set for a U.S. theatrical release on Aug. 22.

Rihanna last walked a Cannes Film Festival red carpet in 2017, for a screening of the film Okja, wearing a white strapless dress with a matching robe and sunglasses.

Post Malone Fights Ex’s Custody Petition, Says Daughter Belongs in Utah

Post Malone is opposing an attempt by his ex to move their nearly three-year-old daughter permanently to California, saying in a new court filing that the child has lived in Utah most of her life and should remain a resident there.

The star (Austin Richard Post) filed a motion Monday (May 19) to dismiss the custody petition brought in Los Angeles court last month by his ex, Hee Sung “Jamie” Park. Post and Park share a child, referred to anonymously in court filings as “DDP,” who was born in May 2022.

Post Malone’s Ex-Fiancée Files for Sole Physical Custody of Their Daughter

According to the motion, the family lived together in Utah until Post and Park ended their relationship this past November. Park then decided to relocate to Los Angeles, and Post says he agreed to share custody and move the child between California and Utah every two weeks.

In April, however, Post says he learned that Park was planning to file for primary physical custody and change their daughter’s residence to California. Park “rushed to enroll DDP in every type of activity she can” in Los Angeles to demonstrate the child’s residence there, Post claims, even though he says DDP’s nanny and doctor are in Utah and she has long attended daycare, music classes and swimming lessons there.

Post filed a paternity action in Utah on April 14 after learning of Park’s plans, he says. Park then brought her California petition for primary custody two days later, and the singer alleges Park’s petition “intentionally misleads” the Los Angeles judge by failing to mention that the child has lived in Utah nearly her whole life.

“I do intend to work cooperatively with Jamie to ensure that DDP has frequent and equal custodial time with her mother,” wrote Post in his declaration. “I do not consent to Jamie’s back door attempt to change DDP’s residence from Utah to California. I request that the California court admonish Jamie for her lack of candor, gamesmanship in attempting to forum shop, and her intentional action to try to mislead the court about DDP’s home.”

Post wants the California custody petition dismissed. He says the former couple’s dispute should be resolved in Utah, where he was the first to bring a custody action and where their daughter has spent nearly three years.

“Jamie’s conduct of attempting to forum shop to change DDP’s home state without Post’s consent or a Utah court order should not be condoned by the California court,” wrote Post’s attorney, Laura Wasser. “California law provides that, under the facts of this case, DDP’s home state is Utah, and subject matter jurisdiction over her custody remains with the Utah court.”

A judge in Los Angeles County Superior Court is scheduled to consider Post’s dismissal motion in late July. Park’s attorney did not immediately return a request for comment Monday.

Post is currently headlining his Big Ass Stadium Tour and is next scheduled to play U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on Tuesday (May 20).

Carín León Nabs Fourth No. 1 on Latin Airplay Chart With ‘Ahí Estabas Tú’

Carín León places his second No. 1 of the year, and fourth overall, on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart, as “Ahí Estabas Tú” ascends 3-1 on the May 24-dated list. The new achievement comes only two months after his most recent triumph with “El Amor de Mi Herida.”

“Ahí Estabas Tú” claims the top spot on the overall Latin Airplay chart with 8.2 million audience impressions earned in the U.S. during the May 9-15 tracking week, according to Luminate –that’s a 21% gain from the previous week. The Greatest Gainer-awarded track of the week trades places with Gerardo Coronel ‘El Jerry’’s “No Se Dice,” after the latter drops 1-3 with a 5% dip in impressions (to 8.23 million).

“Ahí Estabas Tú” marks León’s second champ of 2025. Previously the Hermosillo, Sonora-born singer-songwriter took command of Latin Airplay for one week through “El Amor de Mi Herida” (March 22-dated list).

With a second ruler in 2025, León is only the second soloist to have two No. 1s on Latin Airplay this year unaccompanied by another act. Earlier in 2025, Bad Bunny topped the chart twice with his solo tracks “El Clúb” and “Baile Inolvidable,” each reigning for two weeks in February and March, respectively.

In total, four artists have secured two No. 1 hits in 2025 so far. Between Benito’s two chart-toppers, Myke Towers claimed the No. 1 spot with “Otra Noche” featuring Darell, for one week in February. He followed up with another No. 1 hit, “Degenere,” which features benny blanco, leading for one week on the May 3 chart. Meanwhile, Colombian Kapo placed back-to-back champs as “Más Que Tú,” with Ozuna, ceded its place to “Imagínate,” with Danny Ocean, on the April 26 list, both one-week rulers.

Beyond his Latin Airplay coronation, León also takes “Ahí Estabas Tú” to the summit on Regional Mexican Airplay, where it jumps 2-1, his eighth No. 1 overall. He ties Eden Muñoz for the fourth-most rulers among soloists in the 2020s decade. They trail Christian Nodal who leads with 17 No. 1 this decade, Gerardo Ortiz follows with 13, and Alejandro Fernández with 12 leaders.

All charts (dated May 24, 2025) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, May 20. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.

Here’s What Drake Has to Say About the Dreaded ‘Drake Curse’ in Sports

Whenever Drake supports a team with his rooting interest or backs them with his six-figure bets and that franchise ends up losing, the 6 God hears all the noise from sports fans about the “Drake Curse.”

Drake was finally asked about the mythical curse in a mock interview he posted to his Instagram on Monday (May 19) in promotion of his partnership with Stake.

Drake Loses $1 Million Bet on Toronto Maple Leafs & Jokingly Blames Justin ‘Bieber Curse…

“I feel like I don’t play sports, whether I picked the wrong team or not, if I could get out there and win for all your favorite teams, I would,” he said.

Ultimately, Drake feels vindicated that a “curse” doesn’t exist because the Toronto Raptors captured their first NBA championship in 2019.

“The Drake curse is funny to me,” he revealed. “First of all, the Toronto Raptors are NBA champions. If there was a Drake curse, Kawhi [Leonard] would’ve never hit that shot, we would’ve never beat the Warriors. There is no Drake curse, but it’s funny, though.”

However, Drake did concede that he isn’t a sports gambling savant and has taken his fair share of monetary losses with bad bets over the years.

“I am a flawed sports better,” Drizzy admitted. “I will not deny that. That’s not my gift. I’ll let everybody roll with it. I’m sure if you’re a Drake curse believer, there will be plenty more content in the future to confirm your theories because my slips do not cash out. But one day I’m gonna have a parlay that’s insane.”

Drake added to the “Drake Curse” theories on Sunday night when his hometown Toronto Maple Leafs were eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs after a 6-1 thrashing at the hands of the Florida Panthers in Game 7.

Drizzy actually ended up betting $1.25 million on the Maple Leafs to take home the game 7 victory and advance to the Eastern Conference Finals.

However, Drake jokingly flipped the script and blamed the “Bieber Curse” in his IG Story, as Justin Bieber, who’s a massive Leafs fan, was in attendance front and center at Scotiabank Arena with his wife, Hailey, to watch the excruciating loss in person.

“I don’t remember a time in my life when I haven’t been obsessed with the leafsssss,” Bieber wrote following the loss on his Instagram. “This year we made it farther than we have in so long and im happy about that. I can be patient cuz I know this is the team to do it.”

After Reported ICE Raids at His Nashville Bar, Kid Rock Says He Supports Deportations ‘No Matter Where They Are’

After reports last week of ICE raids at Kid Rock‘s Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N’ Roll Steakhouse in Nashville, the rocker took to social media to respond to the story and double down on his support for President Trump’s deportation of undocumented immigrants.

Responding to a Daily Mail US post on X about how his Nashville bar was the “next target for Trump’s sweeping ICE raids,” Rock started by taking issue with the story using his name for “click bait.”

President Trump Signs Executive Order to Crack Down on Ticket Scalpers, Enforce BOTS Act

“Clearly I do not have anything to do with day to day operations at my Honky Tonk – but it’s good click bait, I get it,” Rock wrote on X. “That being said I 100% support getting illegal criminals out of our country no matter where they are. I also like President Trump want to speed up the process of getting GREAT immigrants into our country – LEGALLY! It’s that simple folks. But the below is not a juicy enough headline to get clicks and views.. in this day and age the truth often is not.”

Last week, The Tennessean reported that the New Orleans field office for ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) had announced a weeklong operation that resulted in the arrest of nearly 200 immigrants in Nashville. On May 14, The Nashville Scene reported that the kitchens at Kid Rock’s Honky Tonk and other bars co-owned by Nashville businessman Steve Smith had closed early to avoid ICE raids.

Kid Rock has been one of Trump’s most vocal supporters over both of his terms as U.S. president, most recently joining him in the Oval Office on March 31 for the signing of an executive order that aims to crack down on scalpers who illegally obtain high-priced concert tickets for resale. During the signing, Rock thanked the president for the order, adding that it’s a first step in stopping bots that “get all the good tickets for your favorite shows they want to go to, and they relist them, sometimes for a 400 to 500% markup.”

Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk Rock N’ Roll Steakhouse opened on Broadway in Nashville back in October 2018.

Watch Full 2025 EDC Las Vegas Festival Sets by Alesso, Tiësto, ISOKNOCK and More

In a world inching toward dystopia, EDC returned to Las Vegas over the weekend and once again offered a welcome escape under the electric sky.

Those who have attended North America’s largest EDM event in the past know it’s much more than just a festival. It’s more of a temporary civilization with its own language, laws and gravitational pull. And in 2025, this rave utopia on the Las Vegas Motor Speedway was as inviting and colorful as ever.

From trance to techno to trap and every genre in-between, the weekend reminded us that dance is still the universal language, even when you’ve been awake for 72 hours straight and think the totem next to you is giving good life advice. But as we all know, EDC’s neon-drenched playground of bass drops and questionable fashion choices is all worth it.

Continue on to watch EDC Las Vegas 2025 live sets by Alesso, Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, ISOKNOCK and more. This article will be updated as more performances are uploaded.
