Rihanna&#8217;s last album was\u00a0<em>Anti<\/em>, which came out in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Since\u00a0<em>Anti<\/em>&#8216;s release, the singer has been focusing heavily on her Fenty Beauty lines, as well as her blossoming acting career.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"35.692307692308\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"3.6923076923077\">\n<p>Rihanna starred in\u00a0<em>Ocean&#8217;s\u00a0Eight<\/em> alongside <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/sandra_bullock\">Sandra Bullock<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/cate_blanchett\">Cate Blanchett<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/awkwafina\">Awkwafina<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/anne_hathaway\">Anne Hathaway<\/a><\/strong> and others.
