A$AP Rocky confirms his relationship with Rihanna, says she’s ‘the one’
American rappers A$AP Rocky has for the first time opened up about his relationship with singer Rihanna. In an interview to GQ magazine, the rapper for the first time confirmed that he is indeed in a relationship with the ‘Umbrella’ singer and called her the love of his life.
The 32-year-old rapper – born Rakim Athelaston Mayers – gushed that Rihanna is “the one” for him. Rumours of the two dating started years before they went public in November 2020 although the two so far kept mum about their relationship.
“Its so much better when you got the one. She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. I think when you know, you know. Shes the one,” he told the magazine.
The L$D performer said he felt a sense of belonging when he went with the Love on the Brain singer to visit her family in Barbados around Christmas.
Rocky was born in New York but his late father also hails from the island nation where Rihanna grew up.
“It was like a homecoming thing. It was crazy. I always imagined what it would be like for my dad before he came to America. And I got to visit those places, and believe it or not, there was something nostalgic about it. It was foreign but familiar,” he recalled.
While the couple spent their quarantine doing a quintessential road trip across the country on a bus, Rocky is thinking ahead to his future now.
He said he thinks hed be a great father when the time is right. "If thats in my destiny, absolutely," he replied when he was asked whether he wants to have children.
Rocky added, “I think I`d be an incredible, remarkably, overall amazing dad. I would have a very fly child. Very.”
The Praise The Lord rapper was previously linked to Iggy Azalea and Chanel Iman, while Rihanna dated Chris Brown, Drake and Hassan Jameel.

拍劇認清自己 出櫃做自己曾感害怕
童星出身的Elliot Page 演活不同角色，而拍攝《Freeheld》（愛是最大權利）更改變她的一生。
《愛是最大權利》一套有關女同志伴侶爭取法律權利的故事，Elliot Page在過程中意識到，「若帶着秘密躲在櫃子裏揣摩，不僅讓我顯得綁手綁腳，且會感到十分痛苦。」當時還沒出櫃的她，有時會在LGBT族群（性少數者）面前感到罪惡，為何明知自己對性別感疑惑，卻收藏自己。

她終鼓起勇氣，在2014年人權運動組織基金會的 LGBT 青年會議上，她來到顫抖着說出：「我今天會在這裏，是因為我是同性戀。是因為⋯⋯（因情緒激動而停頓）是因為我希望能造成改變，能帶給其他人更好過、更有希望的時光。我覺得自己有這份義務和社會責任。」
對，美國是公認較為開放的國家，但作為公眾人物，或多或少，出櫃都可能賠上自己事業，Elliot Page 沒有埋葬自己的害怕，那份勇氣更是讓人敬佩。

有些網民仍留言：那麼Elliot Page 是做了手術成為了男性？還是只是跨性別人士？
已經2020年代，病毒在變，我們思想又怎能原地踏步？性別不再是二元對立，然而想改變他人思想不容易，就像Elliot Page也提到，他有時還會因宣傳這理念而感到害怕、疲憊，可是我們能做到的是由改變自己開始，或許世界會逐步變得更好。
