Rihanna On Vacation In Italy; In Italian Couture And In Caribbean Flavor

Rihanna was spotted in this great summer outfit which was a pineapple print short set, she also wore a saddle leather visor and Louis Vuitton shades. It's obvious she went on a shopping spree while on vacation in Italy because she had Louis Vuitton bag, spotted zipping in and out of stores like Tiffany & Co. and Rolex.

Livin' it up on vaca!!!

FORBES HIGHEST PAID STARS UNDER 30

Now leave it up to Forbes to let us know who is making a lot more money than us! This is the Forbes List of Highest Paid Stars Under 30. Looking at the list, you'll notice that the highest paid celebrities are mainly females and almost all in the music industry, besides the Twilight stars. Forbes looked at the earnings between May 2011 and May 2012 and included pay for everything entertainment related such as album and concert revenue, movie pay days and endorsements.


Robert Pattinson - 26
Pay - $26.5 million
Now I can see how he makes the list, at least he has a list of movies that he's starred in besides Twilight including Remember Me and Water for Elephants. For some reason, this "vampire" looks a lot older than 26 too! He is young...or is he fooling us?

Taylor Lautner - 20
Pay - $26.5 million
I honestly don't see how Taylor Lautner has made that much money with basically having Twilight under his belt. Fame and popularity raked in the bucks on this one.

Lil Wayne - 29
Pay - $27 million
Okay, for some reason, why did I think Lil Wayne was older than 29?! He's still so young and has gone through so much! Props to him! During the past year, he has earned $600,000 per show and has recently launched his own clothing line called Trukfit and signed a big endorsement deal with Mountain Dew.

Kristen Stewart - 22
Pay - $34.5 million
Glad to see Kristen Stewart made it on this list and managed to top the list of the Highest Paid Actresses. Her movies include big hits such as the Twilight saga, and Snow White and the Huntsman. The constant tabloid press around her and Robert Pattinson doesn't hurt either.

Adele - 24
Pay - $35 million
I guess it does pay to sing about heartbreak. From her album 21, she has sold over 23 million copies AND has won all 6 Grammy awards for which she was nominated. Try beating that!

Katy Perry - 27
Pay - $45 million
If you didn't know, Katy Perry and Michael Jackson are the only artists in music history to have 5 #1 singles from the same album. On her California Dream tour, she grossed an impressive $60 million dollars!

Lady Gaga - 26
Pay - $52 million
Formerly topping the list last year, Lady Gaga takes a back seat since she's not touring. Her money this year comes a lot from music sales and her social media influence.

Rihanna - 24
Pay - $53 million
Money talks that talk to Rihanna. Besides releasing one hit after another, she's involved with endorsements with Vita Coco and Nivea along with her own fragrance Reb'l Fleur. Stay tuned for her upcoming tour!

Justin Bieber - 18
Pay - $55 million
Wherever Justin Bieber goes, money and screaming girls follow. Did you know that his video "Baby" is the most watched video in YouTube history? Now that's a feat!

Taylor Swift - 22
Pay - $57 Million
Taylor Swift is a money-making machine. During her most recent tour, she made about $1 million per night. Her many accolades include winning two Grammys for the song "Mean" and being one of the faces of CoverGirl.

Power to the under 30 stars who have made this list! Not only are they young, but very talented! Were you surprised to see who made the list?

Rihanna In Black + Trigg Da Kidd Photo Shoot

I'm liking this hard-edged, BLACK look that Rihanna is wearing. It says BOSS STATUS. The wrapped bun, unique circle shades, just the sheer cut of the blouse fitted with a gold chain, jeans, and boots combo is so odd, just RIHANNA makes it look so good....

(I sound rushed, but I'm just trying to get some fashion news to you...)

Been very busy with my several projects coming up, including a TRIGG DA KIDD photo shoot that I'm conducting at the end of June. Stay tuned by visiting http://facebook.com/jaidenphotografi .

Rihanna Inks Her 17th Tattoo! I Like Tats, Just Not That Many...

If she keeps this up, she may be inked EVERYWHERE! I wonder what Nivea has to say about that, but as Rihanna says, 'I'm just going do whatever I want to do.'

Rihanna has a new tattoo of an eagle, in the shape of a GUN, on her right ankle. Pretty cool... she went to the same guy she's been going to for all her tattoos.

Chris Brown & Drake Brawl at the Bar Over Rihanna?

News broke out today over a NYC brawl and nightclub WIP in the wee hours of the morning. Though it is reported that the fight was between Chris Brown and Drake, it was actually between Chris Brown and Meek Mill. Yea, sorry I'm not familiar with a Meek Mill...

What makes this story interesting was that it was supposedly over Rihanna. We all know she dated Chris Brown for a few years and he did hook up with Drake and this rapper Meek Mill.

But the story went like this...While Drake and Brown were at the club's VIP section, Drake began pointing and yelling at Brown. This in turn made Brown yell back and both of the guys' entourages charged toward each other. Amidst the fight, someone threw a bottle and then all hell broke loose. By the time the cops showed up at the scene, Drake and Brown fled the scene, while their encourages stayed behind. The club scene was a serious mess with busted tables, mirrors, and lighting, shattering glass all over the floor. Five people were injured in the brawl, most notably Chris Brown who suffered from a gash on his chin in which he tweeted right after: "How u party wit rich n**** that hate? Lol... Throwing bottles like girls? #shameonya!."

I already knew Rihanna got it, but did you know she got it like that where a nightclub would be decorated with broken glass and injured men? Go girl, keep doing your thing! Men deserve to fight over a woman anyways! I wonder though, who do you think would've won if Chris Brown and Drake actually fought?

Rihanna's Styles of The Week

Jet-setting from London to Ne York, Rihanna carries her fun, daring, American-ish and Barbados-ish flavor everywhere with her. She sports a tube top here, flowing ruffled skirt there, and I'm loving how she sports a girly skirt with tomboy Chuck Taylors.

Check out some more styles...

Rihanna Brings Some Flavor To Vita Coco Campaign (via Rap-Up)

*Hey guys, check out this excerpt from Rap-Up about Rihanna and Vita Coco*

Rihanna is putting a tropical twist on Vita Coco’s latest campaign. The Bajan beauty has collaborated with the coconut water brand on its new Tropical Fruit flavor. A blonde RiRi was radiant in a custom-made pineapple print bikini top with matching shorts and blouse as she shot with famed photographer Terry Richardson.

“This time it’s a little more fun,” said the pop diva, who previously starred in Vita Coco’s 2011 campaign. “We’re on a stage. We get to shoot it with Terry Richardson, who’s an amazing photographer. Everybody knows his work. He’s known for his fun shoots and personality.”

The campaign features the tagline “Viva Vita,” Vita Coco’s message about having fun, celebrating life, and living it to the fullest. Billboard, radio, digital, and in-store advertising will launch starting this month in the U.S. and U.K.

MET GALA FASHION RECAP 2012

The Met Gala is an annual event where the biggest names in the entertainment industry are invited to attend. This exclusive and lavish gala showcases the most daring and couture fashions. See who made my Best Dressed list for this star-studded night.


BEYONCE - I admit, this woman is beautiful and her body is out of this world, especially after giving birth to Blue Ivy not too long ago. This Givenchy gown is also beautiful, but a bit overly ornate and I just can't get over that nude bodysuit that's so obvious underneath.

CAMILLA BELLE - No, she is not just on this list because our names are a consonant off. She looks amazing in this body hugging dress by Ralph Lauren makes her figure look impeccable. I love the overall look with the pulled back hair and dark lipstick.

SOLANGE KNOWLES - brightened up the red carpet in this yellow Rachel Roy peplum dress.

JANUARY JONES - I see another trend in this bright yellow Peplum style dress by Versace. I like how it hugs her curves and gives that svelte appearance.

KATE BOSWORTH - This dress is not the best, but I love how she matched her dark lipstick to her dress with her hair slicked up in a tight bun. Definite trends this season!

CATE BLANCHETT - Another trend that you may be noticing is feather detailing. These black feathers make your typical black Alexander McQueen dress instantly look high fashion, especially when the design is minimal.

IVANKA TRUMP - She looks absolutely stunning in this midnight blue Peter Pilotto gown, just wish the colors photographed better on camera. It's hard to see the beautiful detailing!

HILARY SWANK - She looks totally amazing in this bergundy Michael Kors gown that shows off her out of this world figure! I mean look at it!

AMY ADAMS - looked breathtaking in this flowing Giambattista Valli dress. I love the gold bow detailing for the belt!

KATHARINE MCPHEE - What a HOT MAMA she is in this body fitting Elie Saab gown! Her whole outfit is perfect put together from her hair, makeup, to the perfect little belt cinching her waist. I love how she decided to opt for the summer color tangerine, it makes her skin glow beautifully.

RIHANNA - Ask me why Rihanna's body is so perfect and I'll tell you I have no idea. But perfect bodies can make anything look great such as this black Tom Ford alligator gown. She definitely rocked it!

KAROLINA KURKOVA - SHE WAS MY BEST DRESSED OF THE NIGHT HANDS DOWN! She looks like a goddess in this gold Rachel Zoe gown with matching turban. The occasion, the accessories, just everything was perfect about this outfit.

Some trends you can definitely take away from this year's Met Gala include Dark Lipstick, sleek hair pulled back, and a twist to the usual black dress. Don't be afraid to experiment with darker shades and textures that make any outfit go above and beyond.

Rihanna Wears Leg-Baring White Gown To 'Battleship' Premiere

Rihanna was spotted above at her 'Battleship' Premiere after being hospitalized. Wow... doesn't look hospitalized at all. Anyway, she wore this amazing halter dress by Adam Selman, paired with Manolo Blahnik heels.

Now I'm sure all eyes were on her because she's beautiful, legs are beautiful, and the dress looks angelic draping over her body (even though Rih has her mischievous ways).

Excerpt from Fashion Bomb Daily: The Best Gowns At 2012 MET GALA!

Who looked BEST?

This (pic) is an excerpt from Fashion Bomb Daily, via the 2012 Met Institute of Art Costume Gala. Many celebs came out to showcase some of their best look, often seen photographed with the designer of the gown. Now, I've posted four pics above of Paula Patton, Solange Knowles, Rihanna, and Beyonce, and I'm going to grade each of them.

First is Paula; she's every bit sweet and flowery with her personality, smile, and that stunning iridescent pink dress by Vera Wang. She gets an A- for that.

Next is Solange; she's in a class all by herself with her diva-like, Diana Ross hair with her sophisicated yellow dress by Rachel Roy. She gets a B for that.

Rihanna is next; WHAAAAAT HAPPENED BABY??! The dress, by Tom Ford, is cool with it's croc print, but the cut is boring even by Rihanna's standards... and the hair?? She gets a C- for that.

Beyonce? Gown by Ty Hunter. BEY? A.

Rihanna's "Where Have You Been"

Rihanna's new video for "Where Have You Been" premiered not too long ago! I love the direction she's going with this techno sound. She has the perfect voice to not only make a song danceable, but to carry the song. No matter what all these haters are saying about her, NO ONE, I repeat NO ONE can sing a song exactly like Rihanna. You can of course try, but every attempt will be a fail and not nearly as close.

Check out her video for her latest single. It's very tribal, mixed with modern sexiness. Get em girl!

The Art Of The Sublime In Rihanna's 'Where Have You Been' Music Video And Comparison To Beyonce's 'Run The World (Girls)'

Well, after waiting and waiting, Rihanna's 'Where Have You Been' music video has dropped. It has been anticipated to be somewhat tribal.. and TRIBAL was all up and through this video. I also couldn't help that the ambiance of the dance number resembled Beyonce's 'Run The World (Girls)', but nevertheless, these videos are in their own zone.



Rihanna adds her flavor by emerging from the water in ink-black hair, perfectly aiming for the camera, as if she's an otherworldly, Stargate-inspired girl looking and hunting for her 'love'. The other cultural looks brings about an international vibe, suggesting that the video can be related to every nationality. Beyonce's 'Run The World' is in a class by itself; it's almost as if no other copied version can ever top Beyonce's dance-in-the-sand routine. Rihanna comes pretty close, though.

Forming the EYE.... uhhh... several times that happened in the video. Colors and dance routines were good; I especially could see one of these looks being produced by Vivienne Westwood or any designer with a crazy flair of cultural style.

What's your take on it?

Rihanna At TIME 100 GALA For 100 Most Influential; Homegirl is STUNNIN'!!!!

Check out Rihanna as she attended the Time 100 Gala. She has been dressing a little rock-ish, grungy, and '80s for a while, but when it's time to glam up, she does it exceedingly well.

The pink gown, the black, sexy, and glossy hair, the perfect makeup... *PLEASANTLY OVERWHELMED*

Willow Smith attended an event with her mother, Jada, as they attended a premiere at Sundance, 'First Positions'. Jada was looking every bit beautiful with her white combo, tan clutch, and Christian Louboutin Lady Max heels.

Willow now sports PURPLE-PINK HAIR with it shaven on the sides. Shec ontinues her ROCKER look; looks like she's coming into her own, since she was appearing Rihanna'esque last year.

RIHANNA In A Conservative Vintage Dress... Until The Bottom Of The Dress Opens Up!

now I knew that, knowing Rihanna, she wasn't going to wear her vintage white dress AS-IS. As she came out of a restaurant, her dressed opened up at the bottom, revealing stockings in a stirrups design. What's unique about the stockings is that it's not actual stirrups; if you look closely, it's DRAWN-ON.

The complementary 'red' in the stirrups matched Rihanna's Louboutins quite well.
