Rihanna paused all three of her fashion and beauty companies for the day.

“We ain’t buying s—t!!! and we ain’t selling s—t neither!! gang gang! #BLACKOUTTUESDAY AF!!!,” the singer, 32, posted on Twitter Tuesday morning.

She also shared a picture of a black square as part of the Blackout Tuesday social media campaign, in response to the ongoing protests demanding justice for George Floyd and police brutality.

Each of Rihanna’s three companies — Fenty, Fenty Beauty and Savage x Fenty — has replaced its usual homepage with a message in solidarity with the movement.

Lea Michele has been accused of making her former “Glee” co-star’s life a “living hell” during their time on the hit series.

Samantha Ware, who played Jane Hayward, called out Michele, 33, for “traumatic microagressions” after the star tweeted about the Black Lives Matter movement by writing, “George Floyd did not deserve this. This was not an isolated incident and it must end. #BlackLivesMatter.”

Ware, 28, retweeted Michele’s message and responded, “LMAO REMEMBER WHEN YOU MADE MY FIRST TELEVISON GIG A LIVING HELL?!?! CAUSE ILL NEVER FORGET. I BELIEVE YOU TOLD EVERYONE THAT IF TOU HAD THE OPPORTUNITY YOU WOULD ‘S–T IN MY WIG!’ AMONGST OTHER TRAUMATIC MICROAGRESSIONS THAT MADE ME QUESTION A CAREER IN HOLLYWOOD…”

Tim Gunn, the famed fashion consultant, says the impossible has happened during the lockdown — he now loves comfortable clothes.

“I used to condemn the whole notion of comfort dressing,” he said during a 92nd Street Y digital event, adding that after weeks in “pajamas and loose-fitting clothes,” real clothes are “an absolute assault on your body! You think, ‘I feel so constricted … I feel like I’m wearing a wetsuit!’ I have a tremendous amount of empathy now for people who want to dress comfortably.”

Gunn showed how far he’s taken comfort, by mentioning, “I have on, below the waist, only underpants and a pair of socks.”
