When asked by the interviewer the best advice she’s gotten on being a mom, the “Work” singer said, “Probably the best advice is to sleep now because I won't get much later. I need to work on that before it's a thing of the past.”

Riri, who is a self-proclaimed die-hard fan of Bravo’s “Real Housewives” franchise was asked which housewife she found most relatable now that she is going to be a mom.

The Fenty Beauty founder gave a major shoutout to “The Real Housewives of Orange County” star Heather Dubrow and Teresa Giudice of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey.”

”Heather Dubrow is so chic while being a mom. Just love the way that she just allows her kids to be who they are. And that's really inspiring to me. But Teresa [Giudice] from Jersey does not play about her kids,” Rihana stated.

Responding to the interviewer’s comment, “she will fight for those little girls,” Rihanna agreed, noting that Giudice will “flatten you about those kids.”

The 9-time Grammy Award winner shared she deeply resonated with Giudice, stating, “that resonates with me a lot because I feel like that's the type of mom I'm going to be. Psycho about it.”

When the interviewer joked, “flip a table,” Riri responded, “worse. You talk about my kids, it’s over.”

The ‘Ocean’s 8’ Star’s Due Date Is Fast Approaching

The 34-year-old also dished on her pregnancy and how she has managed to look as stunning as ever with her burgeoning baby bump.

When asked if her radiant look was as a result of the pregnancy or Fenty Beauty, or both, Rihanna dropped a major bomb on how far along she is.

She answered, “I mean, they go hand in hand. There's a pregnancy glow. There's also those days, girl. Especially in the third trimester where you wake up and you're like, oh, do I have to get dressed?”

The successful singer-turned-entrepreneur admitted she has relied on makeup to make her feel like a “real person” while focusing on “moisturizing and contouring.”

However, the soon-mom-to-be didn’t shy away from speaking about the struggles of looking gorgeous while being pregnant.

“The face gets a little round and chubby. The nose starts to spread. Everything is a challenge, from getting dressed and how you're going to do your makeup,” she confessed.

Nevertheless, Riri declared herself as one who is up for the challenge as it forces her to be creative in new ways. “With beauty, there’s so much that you can do,” she stated.

As for when Rihanna feels the most beautiful amid her pregnancy, the singer revealed that whenever her glam team beats her from head to toe, she feels “snatched.”

While chatting with TikTok makeup star Mikayla Nogueira, Rihanna revealed her favorite songs ever.

Nogueira asked, “The people want to know when the album is, but I have a better question. What song are you most proud of that you’ve come out with?”

After a burst of long laughter, Riri confessed, “Most proud of? I love ‘Needed Me’ and I also love a good ‘Diamonds.’”
