Rihanna's Ingenious Banana Antics: A Hilarious Tale to Catch Her Sons' Attention!
You know, as I sit here chuckling over today’s cosmic caprices like Mercury going direct (finally letting us communicate without the usual digital disasters), I can’t help but laugh at the sheer genius of Rihanna’s latest parenting tactic. But seriously, have you ever tried getting a toddler’s attention? It’s like trying to catch a butterfly with a spoon! Now here’s our queen, Rihanna, embracing the chaos in the most bananas way possible.
So apparently on Sunday, the superstar took to Instagram (yep, where else?) to reveal her latest strategy for her two adorable yet admittedly selective audience members – her sons RZA and Riot. Both of these little munchkins definitely inherited their mom’s love for music, possibly even making their own plans to dominate the charts in, like, what, 15 years?
In a video that could only be described as both utterly creative and completely endearingly desperate, Rihanna transformed herself into a banana to snag her kids’ fleeting attention. “SINCE MY KIDS LOVE BANANAS SO MUCH, BUT WANNA IGNORE ME,” she captioned, with her eyes wide open in a mix of playfulness and plea, sporting a delightful smile by the video’s end.
The internet, as you might guess, was all over it. Fans on The Shade Room found the whole ordeal hilarious – “She’s so funny,” one commented. Another chimed in, “You can tell she enjoys being a parent.” And let’s be honest, who wouldn’t love to play dress-up or filter-up if it means a moment of interaction with your little ones? I mean, if bananas can do it, why not give it a try?
And while fans were amused, many used this chance to subtly, or not so subtly, drop hints about wanting a new album. “Good job nephews ignore her how she has been doing us for years no new album,” one wrote, half in jest, half desperate for new tunes. It just shows, amidst the laughter, there’s a deep-seated anticipation among fans for Rihanna’s next musical reveal.
But here’s something else to ponder – with Libra season, and the Moon entering Aquarius, isn’t this the time of year for balance, fun, and individuality? Seems like Rihanna, always the epitome of Libra charm and style, hit the nail on the head with her approach to parenting. It’s quirky, it’s effective, and well, it’s quintessentially her.
Now, I might not be an expert in… well, let’s say bananas or astrology, but I’m pretty sure there’s some cosmic correlation here. Are bananas the new way to harness the power of Mercury in retrograde? I’ll have to look into that, but for now, let’s enjoy this delightful insight into Rihanna’s world, where love, laughter, and a bit of silliness keep the family beat going.
When you’re done giggling over this, and maybe trying the banana filter yourself, LEARN MORE!
Rihanna had to resort to an ingenious means to get her sons’ attention and shared her actions with her fans on Sunday.
The pop diva shares two children with her partner and rapper, A$AP Rocky.
The couple became parents for the first time on May 13, 2022, when they welcomed RZA, while his younger brother, Riot, was born in August 2023.

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky usually keep their sons out of the spotlight, but the proud mom has been sharing more with her fans lately.
On March 8, the “Work” crooner celebrated International Women’s Day by sharing never-before-seen photos of her son taken from the delivery room after she gave birth to them.
The first picture showed her cradling RZA while wearing a gold necklace and pearls.
In the second photo, Rihanna wore pink sunglasses while holding Riot, who slept in her arms.
She wrote, “By far the most powerful thing I’ve ever done as a woman…my little miracles! And yes, I gave birth in pearls and sunglasses… don’t ask, a lot was happening.”

The mother of two has never shied away from sharing her love for motherhood in past interviews.
For instance, in March 2023, she spoke to British Vogue months after welcoming RZA and described her experience being a mom.
Rihanna said, “Oh, my God, it’s legendary. It’s everything. You really don’t remember life before, that’s the craziest thing ever.”
She added, “You literally try to remember it – and there are photos of my life before – but the feeling, the desires, the things that you enjoy, everything, you just don’t identify with it because you don’t even allow yourself mentally go that far, because… Because it doesn’t matter.”
Just as fans were adjusting to Rihanna’s new role as a mom, she surprised the world once again during her 2023 Super Bowl Halftime Show by revealing she was expecting her second child.
After welcoming Riot, she officially completed her family. At the time, a source told PEOPLE Magazine, “Rihanna feels her family is now complete,” and added, “It’s something she’s always wanted.”
The insider also shared, “She loves being a mom, so this is where her mind is at the moment.”

Although Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s kids are still toddlers, they are already showing they may follow in their famous parents’ footsteps and become musicians.
Rihanna dished on her sons’ love for music during an interview with Harper’s BAZAAR in February.
She revealed that RZA is “just an empath. He’s so magical. He loves music. He loves melody. He loves books. He loves water. Bath time, swimming, pool, beach, anything.”
Meanwhile, the 37-year-old said Riot is “just hilarious,” before teasing that he wants to “sing” all the time.
She revealed, “When he wakes up, he starts to squeal, scream. Not in a crying way. He just wants to sing.”
Rihanna added, “And I’m like, ‘Okay, here we go!’ He’s my alarm in the morning! He’s not taking no for an answer from anyone. I don’t know where he came from, dude.”
