“She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen,” the Rude Boy singer gushed. “How do you have a face like that, with hair like that and dimples, and a body like that, that’s proportioned like that? And you have a successful career, something about that is not right!”

In other Rihanna news, the alternative version of What’s My Name featuring Drake, the second single from her forthcoming album Loud, has finally been unveiled.







The percussion-heavy track is produced by Stargate and the lyrics are all about sex and love. Drake makes his intentions clear with lines like: “OK, away we go/ Only thing we have on is the radio/ Let it play, say you gotta leave, but I know you wanna stay”.

Rihanna recently said her new album will “exude the energy and space I'm in right now. That's what I always try and do with my music. Right now in my life I feel very loud and in charge of my life and I can't wait for everyone to hear the new album.”

Rihanna: Giorgio Baldi Beautiful

Treating herself to a relaxing dinner on the town, Rihanna made her way over to Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica on Saturday night (October 16).

Donning her bright scarlet locks under a cute little hat, the "Rude Boy" singer was all smiles as she greeted a few friends at the popular west coast eatery.
On the career end of things, RiRi recently revealed she'd someday like to work with British beauty Cheryl Cole.

When asked in a recent interview which star she would like to duet with, Rihanna quickly named Cheryl and declared "she is awesome".

Rihanna Keeps it Casual in Beverly Hills

Rihanna has been one busy woman working on her new album and jet setting all over the globe. On Friday Oct. 15, the pop star kept it low key and casual as she left her Beverly Hills, CA hotel.
Seemingly a bit tired, the 22-year-old still looked fashionable as usual dawning a cute pair of denim shorts and a camel colored sweater.

The “Umbrella” singer’s fifth album Loud is set for release on Nov. 16.

Rihanna And Drake Debut 'What's My Name?'

For her upcoming record, Loud, Rihanna said she wanted to make music that was like her: "sassy, fun, flirty, energetic." Her high-energy new single, "Only Girl (In the World)," is already proof that the LP is shaping up to be the feel-good party album fans are hoping for. And on Friday (October 15), her much talked-about collaboration with Drake, an alternate version of "What's My Name?" dropped, and the sassy song is all about sex and love.
Drake kicks off the uptempo Loud track with a smooth verse that plays it anything but coy about his intentions for Rihanna.

"I heard you good with them soft lips," he rhymes. "Yeah, you know word of mouth/ The square root of 69 is 8-something/ Right? 'Cause I've been trying to work it out/ Good weed, white wine, I come alive in the nighttime/ OK, away we go/ Only thing we have on is the radio/ Let it play, say you gotta leave, but I know you wanna stay."

Drake's come-ons don't end there. He rambles on with such sweet nothings as: "You just waiting on the traffic jam to finish, girl/ The things that we can do in 20 minutes girl/ Say my name, say my name, wear it out/ It's getting hot, crack a window, air it out/ I can get you through a mighty long day."

Rihanna then comes in, singing her response to Drizzy's provocative proposal.

Rihanna feat. Drake 'What's My Name' Song Premieres

Even though their short-lived relationship went sour between them, Rihanna and Drake still make music together. Check out their song after the jump.
Well, here's another cut from Rihanna and even though she recently said she didn't wanna make 'generic' songs this is not much better than the obnoxious 'Only Girl.' The song is about sex, a relationship blah, blah...

"Hey boy I really wanna see if you could go downtown with a girl like me," she sings in her robotic voice, but you can check it out and if you like it, enjoy it.

About working together, Rihanna said 'He's the only person I thought could really understand the melody of the song, and the minute he heard it he said, 'I know exactly what I'm going to do. I love it.' And he did it like three days later,' which we believe because his part in the song is super short.

Glum Rihanna steps out in frumpy flats and a granny-style cardigan

The weather outside may have been cool by California standards, but pop songstress Rihanna still stepped out in short shorts which she teamed with a granny style cardigan.

And the addition of flat lace-ups made her an uncharacteristically frumpy look for the typically raunchy singer.
he 22-year-old was seen leaving a Beverly Hills hotel yesterday, with her bodyguard following close by.

Despite spending some time with boyfriend Matt Kemp earlier, she seemed rather downcast as she headed out.

Wearing sunglasses, a fedora, a big tan sweater, and cut-off denim shorts, the Bajan beauty mixed summer and autumn fashions as the temperature outside hovered in the high 60's - chilly by Southern California standards.

Maybe her mood was due to news which broke Friday on Radaronline that disturbing new assault photos had surfaced.

The U.S website reports it was offered four shocking pictures of the badly battered singer after the 2009 attack by R&B musician Chris Brown, but it turned them down after judging them too disturbing for publication.

That plus news that the rumoured collaboration between Rihanna and Lady Gaga is not happening, may have been too much.

New Photos Of A Beaten & Battered Rihanna Leaked

Never-before-seen images of a battered Rihanna -- reportedly taken at a hospital after her fight with Chris Brown -- have leaked. RadarOnline.com has seen the four images that were offered to this site for publication. We declined.
The photos were taken in a Los Angeles emergency room where Rihanna was being treated after she was assaulted the night of the Grammy awards in February 2009, according to an anonymous source who would not identify themselves to RadarOnline.com. "They were taken at the hospital," admitted the source, who has been shopping the photos to various other media outlets.

The possible release of the stills would almost certainly cause more outrage. Less graphic images were published online 11 days after the couple's fight nearly two years ago. After that leak, the Los Angeles Police Department launched an internal investigation and asked for the public's help in finding the source of the photographs.

The photos showed to RadarOnline.com are different to those previously published. While three of the stills feature Rihanna, a fourth is of Brown seated in a hospital room pictured with a small lesion on his upper lip.

So Kodak M590 Campaign Commercials Welcomes Rihanna

have to give props to Kodak’s latest ad campaign So Kodak – not only does it show off the Kodak M590 with its share button and sharing capabilities, but they have also managed to wrangle some of today’s top music stars – Drake, PitBull, and Trey Songz, to be their new spokespersons. The latest one to join the ‘share’ party is Rihanna. But to someone new just watching the commercials, they may be confused as to what is going on since each commercial is actually a continuation from a previous commercial in the series.
The campaign has PitBull, Drake and Trey Songz sharing photos of each other at random places, and then Rihanna later gets added to the mix.

The one thing to notice about all the commercials is that they all receive the images on their phones or laptops first. In these cases, these devices just happen to be an iPhone, BlackBerry, iPad, and Facebook on a Macbook – product placement at its best. So far there have been 6 commercials in all and who knows who the next celeb will be that Kodak decides to share with next. One things for sure, we know it won’t be Lady Gaga – Polaroid already has their clutches on her.

Rihanna Unafraid To Make Mistakes

R&B superstar Rihanna has said that she feels she’s become a successful artist because she's never been scared of making mistakes.
She told Bravo: "If I was scared to do something wrong I wouldn't be where I am today. And that would totally restrict me. You learn from your mistakes.

"To remember that every day I got a tattoo of the sentence 'Never A Failure Always A Lesson' mirror-inverted under my collarbone. Now I can read that sentence every day in the mirror."

RiRi claims that she learnt how to be a strong woman by learning from her mother Monica Fenty’s example:

Rihanna 'hoping for engagement'

Rihanna reportedly wants her boyfriend to propose at Katy Perry's wedding.

Katy is due to wed her fiance; Russell Brand this year, with rumours circulating the pair will tie the knot this month. Rihanna will attend the ceremony as she is close friends with Katy, and even organised her bachelorette party last month.
Rihanna has been dating professional baseball player Matt Kemp, 26, for eight months, and things are getting serious between them. It has been claimed the singer is keen for Matt to pop the question, and new reports suggest she thinks Katy's wedding would provide the perfect romantic setting for a proposal.

"I think Rihanna's got the bug. Katy is so excited about getting married. Her attitude is, 'Why wait?' which is rubbing off on Rihanna. I wouldn't be surprised if she's starting to think of Matt as perfect husband material," a source told more! magazine. "She's taking Matt as a guest to the wedding and I think she's hoping he might propose then."

Rihanna and Katy have spent lots of time discussing Katy's impending nuptials, which is said to have convinced Rihanna the time is right for her to settle down too.

The Barbados-born singer is known to have a lot of respect for the institution of marriage, and has been planning her big day since she was a child.

"Rihanna's always wanted to get married. Her scrapbook is full of cuttings of her favourite dresses and she started it when she was only nine years old," another source previously said.

Inside Rihanna's Big Beautiful World
