Rihanna
News

Another portion of the 20/20 interview with Rihanna aired this morning on Good Morning America. In the video she talks about what made Chris Brown snap the night he beat her. Rihanna says she saw a text on his phone from another woman and when she confronted him about it, he lied. She said she wouldn't drop it and he just kept lying about the text message and it escalated to the point Chris got violent.

Rihanna also said Chris had "no soul in his eyes" after he beat her. He was blacked out and there was no person when she looked at him. The entire interview airs tonight at 10 pm.

Rihanna says that she's strong, but that she was weak to reconcile with Chris Brown after he beat her. Rihanna says that she was so "embarrassed" that the world knows that she was in love with an abuser. RiRi also says that most women return to their attacker because they don't want violence to be the last memory that they have of their partner. She then begins to tear up when she thinks of the dangerous message that she sent to her female fans when she took Chris Brown back.

Regardless of Rihanna's motives, I'm glad she is speaking out. Rihanna has fans who may actually listen to her. If she's able to get even one woman to leave an abuser, than that's all that matters.

Rihanna looks great in her new video, "Wait Your Turn." I like this song. It's got a catchy beat, you can hear Rihanna's accent in it, and the video is hot. I love that "Wait Your Turn" is in black and white and that Rihanna's wearing an eye patch in it. She's so edgy! Ha. But at least she can pull off the badass look better than a lot of others ever could.

Whew! Inhale, exhale, Firecracker be nice. Rihanna is promoting her comeback album, Rated R, so she's finally talking about domestic violence. Keep in mind that Rihanna was attacked by Chris Brown nearly one year ago, but she has a record to sell, therefore it's time for advocacy!

Rihanna tells Glamour, "I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn't heard. Now I can help speak for those women." - This is news to me! Alright, I'll post the rest of her comments without saying much. I don't consider speaking to the media while saying 'My album drops November 23rd' as standing up and representing anyone but her record label and herself, but I digress.

Glamour actually named Rihanna the Woman of the Year. She will be honored in a special ceremony at Carnegie Hall on Nov. 9. Perhaps I need to back off. Maybe I would have crawled under a rock if the world saw a humiliating picture of my face all bruised up. It's easier to point fingers when you haven't been there. I still think 'Woman of the Year' is a stretch for many reasons, but Glamour's interested in a*s-kissing with RiRi, and they do it well.

Rihanna on where she's been in the past nine months:

"My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see. They have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn't heard. Now I can help speak for those women."

Rihanna on the leaked picture of her battered face:

"It was humiliating; that is not Continue Reading...

Rihanna has a record to promote, therefore she has to talk about Chris Brown. Rihanna will finally open up on her shocking beat down which took place last February. Rihanna will face off with a nosy reporter to give us all "her side of the story." POTP also had an exclusive on Rihanna's temper and her history of fighting with Chris Brown.

Now before you set your TiVos and DVRs, it's worth mentioning that RiRi is no Whitney Houston and it's unlikely that this "exclusive" will be much of an expose. Rihanna has been schooled heavily on how to answer questions. Regardless, it should be interesting to hear what she finally has to say. It's all about the body language and facial expressions, too. The interviewer has a lot of work to do, trying to create questions that he or she thinks Rihanna hasn't been prepped on. ABC has some great reporters. This should be good!

Here's a picture of Rihanna's Rated R cover. It was shot by famed photographer Ellen von Unwerth. She said that Rihanna wanted to create something new for her comeback album.

Ellen also said,

Rihanna is "fantastic to work with -- very giving, very creative, very involved in every aspect of the shoot, and ready to push the boundaries."

This is an album I refuse to buy until RiRi speaks out on domestic violence. She's so tough in photos and lyrics, isn't she? B*tch please!

Chris Brown posted a montage video from his Twitter page that has led some bloggers to believe that he must really be missing Rihanna and wants her back.

The video has CB's song "The Way We Used to Be" playing in the background, and Chris and Rihanna look very happy in love throughout the footage. One of the cutest pictures ever is also used as the final shot in the video, which makes you say 'awwww!'

But Chris s a slut who hits on every woman within a one-mile radius. He misses his money more than he misses Rihanna, and this slick move is PR gold. The video is really cute! Check it.

Womanizing abusive singer Chris Brown has released a new song titled 'Crawl' which is all about winning Rihanna back. Coincidence? I think not.

With lyrics such as "Everybody sees it's you. I'm the one that lost the view. Everybody says we're through, I hope you hadn't said it too" Chris makes a pathetic plea to win Rihanna back. Get over it Chris, you beat her *ss enough the first time around!

Which brings me to the lyric "I always felt the need for space, but now I can't reach your face. So where are you standing now? Are you in the crowd of my vouch.  Love, can you see my hand? I need one more chance, we can still have it all". You probably shouldn't mention anything about your hand and reaching her face in a song to win her back. That probably gives Rihanna flashbacks to the smack down you inflicted on her earlier this year!

Rihanna debuted her new single, "Russian Roulette," yesterday on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS FM show.

It's about "a woman on the verge" of killing herself. Some of the lyrics include: You can see it thorugh my chest/That I'm terrified/But I'm not leaving/I know that I must pass this test/So just pull the trigger."

Well Rihanna never said sh*t about domestic violence, so it figures that the role model would continue to send positive, uplifting messages through her music like in the lyrics above.

The track ends with a gunshot and was penned and produced by her alleged former hookup, Ne-Yo. The video is set to premiere in prime-time on ABC. RiRi's fourth album, Rated R, drops November 23.

People and paparazzi from all over the world trek to Paris every year for Paris Fashion Week. The fashion shows usually take place on the runway, but not when Rihanna's in town!

Rihanna goes out of her way to wear attention-grabbing, eccentric and sexy clothes. In fact, she's been wearing see thru clothes more and more recently, but it's not all about the clothes with RiRi. Check out them heels! I'm drooling.

Rihanna sells her body, and for this we are grateful. She puts a lot of effort into performing every single day when she steps outta her whip and walks the street in crazy heels, thigh-high boots and barely there tops that her nipple can peak out of at any given moment.

Here's some pics of RiRi with her totes BFFL Katy Perry. The other pics are of Rihanna's numerous costume changes overseas. She used to be more eclectic, but she seems to be going for more of a Whore Chic look that I'm not always sold on; but as Tim Gunn of Project Runway says, I think she manages to "make it work."
