Rihanna's Interview On ABC Family About Chris Brown Relationship

This is the first time the singer shares all the details about how her career started and took off, how her and Chris Brown met and started a relationship and when things went sour.

In summary, she refers to him as her best friend and how they became dangerous for each other the more they fell in love. When she sees pictures of herself battered that leaked on TMZ she feels embarrassment and humiliation, because this was the person she once loved.

Looks like the following rumors where TRUE:
-the fight started when she saw a text message on Brown's phone and he kept lying.
-Brown shoved her into a window and punched her in the eye and mouth till she was bleeding. He had her in headlocks and threatened to beat her up, while trying to drive to a secluded LA area.

Rihanna went on to reveal that her father was physically abusive towards her mother and used to hit her all the time.
She admits to still having slight feelings for Chris Brown but has no desire - so far - to get back with him and wishes him all the best.

Chris Brown talks about Rihanna in an MTV interview

Chris Brown did an interview which aired just hours ago, with Sway of MTV about the scandal involving his ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
Check out the 3 video's below:




Your thoughts?

I find it ironic his and Rihanna's interviews both aired around the same time/days. Just yesterday ABC News released footage of Rihanna (for the first time) talking about the night of the incident where she and Chris Brown got into a huge fight and she says she "was only defending herself".
You can watch the whole interview here, where Rihanna tells the story from her side.

But the starlet said that the deeper they fell for one another, the darker their relationship became, bordering on an "obsession."



"To fall in love with your best friend it ... can be scary because the ... the emotions get really, they get the best of you. Like it takes over," she said. "The more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for each other, equally as dangerous."  Source: ABCNews

She goes on to call Chris Brown her first real big love. The 2 dated for a year and a half.

Miley Cirus role in Sex And The City Movie 2

Miley Cyrus made a guest appearance in New York City on the set of the HBO shows movie: Sex And The City 2.

Though the Hanna Montana star doesn't have an actual speaking line in the film, alot of women seem to be upset that Miley Cyrus will even be in the film (mostly due to her recent image and tabloid stories involving the star).

Cyrus plays herself in the movie, and the scene she appears in takes place at a red carpet premiere of Smith Jerrod's (Jason Lewis) film "Heart of the Desert" where she has a run-in with Kim Cattrall's Samantha.
Miley's role will involve her wearing the same dress as Kim Cattrall, just differently accessorized.

Other rumored cameos include Penelope Cruz, Liza Minnelli and "Project Runway" mentor Tim Gunn. The movie comes out in May 2010.

Megan Fox and Zac Effron?!

What do you make of the latest Megan Fox rumour? We really dont know what to make of this one!

The star has reportedly been seen getting snug with High School musical’s Zac Efron. According to celebuzz The Transformers actress and the 17 Again star were seen flirting at the Golden Globes awards party. A source said, ‘They were very friendly and their faces were close when they talked.’

Despite the beautiful babies we can’t really see these two as a couple – and what about the gorgeous Vanessa Hudgens?!

Rihanna and Chris Brown back together

Well, didn't see this one coming: Rihanna and Chris Brown are reportedly back together. After Rihanna's picture was accidently leaked all over the internet (the one taken by police right after she was assaulted) I thought for sure she wouldn't be going back to her other half. Lips swollen and busted open, cuts... It wasn't posted on this site out of respect to the singer.

People magazine reports:

"They're together again. They care for each other," says the source. The on-again couple are currently spending time together at one of Sean "Diddy" Combs's homes, on Miami Beach's Star Island.Adds the source: "While Chris is reflective and saddened about what happened, he is really happy to be with the woman he loves."

At least Chris Brown learned his lesson right? He can get away with anything. :/

Latest on Rihanna and Chris assault

TMZ cited the police report where Rihanna claims she's been abused before, US Weekly spills she had bruises on her neck as recently as December:

Brown -- who is currently being investigated by Los Angeles county prosecutors after Rihanna allegedly accused him of assaulting her the night before the Grammys -- always had a "volatile" relationship with the singer, an insider tells Us.A Rihanna confidant adds that bruises were clearly visible on the singer's neck in early December. Alarmed, "I asked is everything was OK with her and Chris," says the pal. "She told me, 'We broke up again.' I didn't pursue the issue further."

And then to make things WORSE, Chris Browns dad went and did an inteview with OK! Magazine. Seriously, the last thing you want is to be letting out secrets at a time like this. Here's what out lovely "dad of the moment" had to say:

"I never once raised my hand to his mother," Donnelle says. "It just never happened.""I believe that Chris is making these allegations because it is a way of not accepting responsibility of his own actions. Somebody has to be at fault, the scapegoat, and who else but me?" says Donnelle. "He blames me for taking his mom away from his dad, even though it didn't happen like that. Whatever issues he has, whether he thinks they come from me or not, he needs to get help for, get counseling."

Sounds good right? If only he'd left out this detail:

Donnelle, who is blind after accidentally shooting himself in the eye during an argument with Joyce Brown Hawkins, says Chris is blaming the wrong person.

However, in a 2007 interview, Chris told a different side of the story: "He
used to hit my mom... He made me terrified all the time, terrified like I had to
pee on myself," Chris revealed. "I remember one night he made her nose bleed. I
was crying and thinking, 'I'm just gonna go crazy on him one day...' I hate him
to this day."

Latest on Chris Brown assaulting Rihanna with deadly weapon and other news

Wrigley's is now suspending Double Mint ads featuring the 19 yr old singer until "things get cleared up". The company stopped short of saying they will drop the troubled R&B star completely. Wrigely also added that the 19-year-old should be "afforded the same due process as any citizen." Something with which I couldn't agree more.

Worse, is that Chris Brown may be looking at 9 years in prison. This due to the fact that he wasn't booked for domestic abuse, but instead for making serious threats, which is much serious and can get you double time in jail.

Law enforcement sources tell us they typically book a suspect for the most
serious crime they can be charged with -- it's then up to the D.A. to file any
additional charges.Given there were allegedly visible injuries, the crime of
making criminal threats is punishable by up to nine years in prison. Domestic
abuse is four years.

Innitially Chris was also booked for assault with a deadly weapon, but later turned out the police report wasn't correct and there was no weapon involved. Just Chris Browns fists of fury.

Rumor has it he hit and bit her several times, yet she isn't wanting to press charges.

Chris Brown Assaults Rihanna

Chris Brown assaulted his girlfriend R&B singer Rihanna after both attended the 2009 Pre-Grammy Gala & Salute (above). Chris turned himself in Sunday evening after the two canceled their Grammy appearances. Both were nominees.

E! News:

A spokeswoman for Brown's label declined comment. Rihanna's publicist, Amanda
Silverman, would only tell E! News that the 20-year-old "Disturbia" singer was
involved in an unspecified traffic mishap. "Rihanna is well," the rep said.
"Thank you for concern and support."Per department policy, police declined to
identify the alleged victim in the incident, which occurred about 12:30 a.m. in
the Hancock Park area, apparently as the two were heading home from Clive Davis' annual pre-Grammy bash, where they had been all smiles.In a statement, police say Brown and his companion "became involved in an argument. After stopping his car, Brown and the woman got out and the argument escalated. The woman suffered visible injuries and identified Brown as her attacker."By the time officers arrived on the scene, Brown had split.

As of this post, Chris Brown has already posted bail and been released, according to TMZ. And all this right before the Grammy's.

Are you still a Chris Brown fan? What's your opinion on all this?

Kate Moss On Vogue (August 2008)

Kate Moss is Vogue's August 2008 Cover and will be gracing the cover in a monotonous yet gorgeous and mature dress. Here's are bits and pieces of Moss's interview with Vogue:

"I'm a mum. All the time. Every day. I put my daughter to bed."

"I am still acting like a seventeen-year-old, I definitely haven't become middle-aged. I've got a house and a daughter and all that, but I still like to have fun. Even in my business we still have fun."

"I still enjoy modeling, and it inspires me for the other things as well. All that dressing up makes me say, 'What do I want to wear?' and, 'What do I want to do with Topshop?' It all kind of leads into the other things."

"I like making money, but I don't call people up every day to see how much I've made. As long as I have what I need at the time; I mean, I can buy the house that I want. I am not completely money-oriented."

Kate Perry Gives Dating Advice For Playerettes

We love her style, and obviously her songs. "I kissed a girl" has been blasting on radio's and mp3 players all over the world. The somewhat controversial singer has a wardrobe all vintage lovers would die for.. so of course we want to know more about her haha, even if it involves advice about being a "playerette".

Katy Perry talks to Blender Mag on “How to Date 4 Guys at Once.”

1. HAVE A BOY IN EVERY PORT
“As a sophisticated woman, you should have business in both Los Angeles and New York, and summer in Paris. You can’t just take an L.A. guy to Paris and expect him to know what the 6th arrondissement is. He would just take you directly to the Eiffel Tower with the rest of the tourists.”

2. STICK TO A TIGHT SCHEDULE
“Guys like to surprise you. Girls don’t like surprises. Which is why a precise calendar is important if you’re going to be an international player. You’ll need it color-coded. If you do get surprised, just let the other one out the back door. Always have a back door. And a laundry chute!”

3. KEEP YOUR PICS RATED P.G.“Be particular about how you pose for photos, because the suggestive ones end up being tagged on Facebook. Trouble! We live in a world where you wake up and your whole diary from last night is on the Internet. You don’t even have to be a celebrity. You are your own paparazzi!”

4. DO NOT GIVE HIM A DRESSER DRAWER“They can never leave their stuff! I was bringing back the things an old boyfriend left at my house, and I accidentally returned something that wasn’t his. He saw it, and he’s like, ‘This isn’t mine!’ And it’s like, ‘Well, it certainly could have been. I mean, you all wear Fruit of the fucking Loom!’”

Rihanna Spills To InStyle Magazine

Rihanna opened up in an interesting interview about her tattoos, future plans for a clothing line, going out, rumors, her complexion and of course.. FASHION.
Here is the InStyle spread from the August issue which hit stands yesterday:Blass blouse and Catherine Angiel necklace in this cover look.

One of her best looks–she pairs a Valentino dress with Gucci leather booties. A Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci gold-plated necklace completes the look.

For a fall look–Rihanna sports a Chanel tweed vest, Helmut Lang jeans, and jewelry from Chanel and MCL by Matthew Campbell Laurenza.

A Rose Anne de Pampelonne necklace and Chrome Hearts belt add a modern touch to Rih Rih’s feathery Fendi frock.

And here she rocks a hot pink Emanuel Ungaro silk-nylon jacket, BCBG Max Azria dress, and sexy Emanuel Ungaro eelskin heels.


[In Style's August] issue is all about breaking entrenched rules of fashion and design. What are some rules you’d like to crush?“The idea of not wearing brown and black together seems so dated. The other day I wore a black T-shirt, black Nobody jeans, a brown leopard-print belt by Dolce & Gabbana, and brown Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, and it looked awesome. Also, the rule about not matching your makeup to your outfit. I do that onstage, matching red lipstick to a bright red jacket or neon-pink eye shadow to a pink jumpsuit. And I also love to mix prints.

We’ve had the Meg, the Jennifer, and now people ask for the Rihanna at salons. Will you be switching it up again?“The first time I heard people were asking for the Rihanna, it was really flattering and maybe a little strange. It caught me by surprise, but now I feel it’s a very cool thing. I don’t feel the pressure to change it up again at all. I like it, as they like it.”


Can you talk about your style obsessions and how your look has evolved over the years?
“It has evolved without my even noticing it. Lately I’m obsessed with Thierry Mugler… Grace Jones inspires me. She is the most iconic woman ever, in my eyes. She has extraordinary style and she’s fearless. I love designer Martin Margiela; Kanye West told me about him. I also like Dsquared, Chloe, Zac Posen…”

But you weren’t always a fashion maven? Growing up in Barbados, you were a tomboy.
“I wore my brother’s clothes, dresses with sneakers, or no shoes at all. I would always get into trouble with my mom. She would say things to scare me like, ‘You’re going to get cut!’ But I couldn’t help it. I would climb trees, steal mangoes, catch birds–silly things that were fun to us at the time. My cousin and I were the only girls in the group. We would have to stand up for ourselves because the guys didn’t want us around.”

You stood out in Barbados because of your light complexion. Do you remember having trouble fitting in at school?
“Definitely. It made me angry. For the first six years of school, I would go home traumatized. The harassment continued to my very last day of elementary school. High school was better.”


I read that your mom owns a boutique and your dad works at a garment factory–it seems you have the Rihanna fashion line already partly sewn up.
“[Giggles] Well, I am working on that right now. It takes a lot of effort, and I want to be involved with every step of the process.”

What do you do for kicks in L.A.?
“I don’t go out much. I’m moving into a new four-bedroom home in Los Feliz that I’m excited about. Parts of it will be inspired by India. I love things like canopy beds, printed fabrics, and Spanish touches. Then I can stay at home and cook West Indian dishes like callaloo [stewed greens]. But I do want a sports car–as soon as I get my license.”

Who knew you were so domestic. Wait a minute. You’re such a rebel. In the video for “Take a Bow,” you drive a car.
“I have my Barbadian license, just not my American one.”

How will you celebrate your 21st birthday?
“Don’t scare me! I have till February. I feel like I have so much more to accomplish before I’m 21. No party plans yet. Many showbiz types say, “Don’t ever read your own press,” but you do, even the online stuff.”

What’s the kookiest thing you’ve read about yourself?
“The Grammy thing–that I brought Jay-Z on stage and Beyonce was upset, which is so ridiculous. Or the idea that I’ve had breast implants–I don’t even have much cleavage. It was just the dress! So yes, I read about myself and about everybody else in the gossip pages. It’s comedy to me; I laugh about it.”

The tattoo behind your ear is a Pisces symbol–two fish swimming head to tail in a circle–which represents life after death. If possible, what would you be reincarnated as?
“If I had to come back in another form, it would be as my dog, DJ. He gets the best treatment, all the attention in the world, and he’s so adorable. Plus, he goes everywhere I can take him.”

ETA: I did a post on Rihanna's tattoos? Well here are a few more I didn't know she had:

 

Will And Jada's Open Marriage

I always love hearing celebs tips when it comes to keeping a Hollywood marriage lasting. When asked in the past Will and Jada always chalked it up to allowing each other to have "crushes" on other people and even telling each other about it. This didn't exclude fantasizing.

Now Will Smith has confirmed what almost everybody has suspected for several years now about him and Jada’s “open marriage". In an interview with UK magazine Reveal, the "Fresh Prince" confirmed that the couple ask for each other’s approval before they have sex with other people.Quote:

“Our perspective is, you don’t avoid what’s natural and you’re going to be attracted to people.” he says.
“And if it came down to it, then one would say to the other: ‘Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now, I’m not going to if you don’t approve of it’.”
The 39-year-old star explains that the couple’s open policy has been in place from day one of their 10-year marriage.
“In our marriage vows, we didn’t say ‘forsaking all others’. We said ‘you will never hear I did something afterwards’. Because if that happens the relationship is destroyed.”
Other things that Will says are important in his relationship are keeping in shape for his “little firecracker” Jada, the “look in her eyes”, and communication.
“And lots of sex makes for a good marriage too!" (Source)

Angelina Jolie Gives Birth

The birth of the Jolie-Pitt twins and their names have been confirmed by People.com. Jolie, 33, gave birth to a boy, Knox Leon, and a girl, Vivienne Marcheline, via Cesarean section on Saturday night July 12th at the Fondation Lenval hospital in Nice, France. Knox weighed 5.03 lbs, and Vivienne 5 lbs. Dr. Michael Sussmann told PEOPLE,

“The babies are doing well. The operation went just perfectly. Angelina is in very good spirits. Brad Pitt was at her side. He was there and all was well.”

The twins join siblings Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2.
Marcheline was the first name of Jolie's mother, also an actress, who died of cancer last year.

“The mother and father are very, very happy.”

Jolie recently told Entertainment Weekly that she was surprised – but not daunted – when she learned she was having twins. "It did shock us, and we jumped to six [children] quickly," she said. "But we like a challenge."

French newspaper Nice Matin also revealed that the first family picture was sold to a US paper for $11 million (and will be given to a humanitarian cause). They quoted her ob/gyn, Michel Sussmann.
Her lawyers already snapped up the domain names knoxleonjoliepitt.com & viviennemarchelinejoliepitt.com – check out the screenshots at popbytes.com!

Ri Ri's Tattoos And Piercings

Rihanna appears to have gotten some more tattoos.
The new tattoos on her shoulder are roman numerals that read "11-4-1986". It’s her best friend and assistant- Melissa Forde’s- birthday! Sources online confirm it definitely isn't Rihanna’s (February 20, 1988) or Chris Brown’s (May 5, 1989) birthday.




Rihanna and also mentioned being accompanied by Melissa anywhere she goes… even the shower:

Here's Rihanna describing how she got off the body paint from the video Umbrella:
The body paint was really oily. I couldn’t wait to get it off my face. That was the worst part about it - getting it off. I was in the shower for two and a half hours! My best friend had to come and shower with me, because after I tried to do it myself, the silver would just go back to where I just washed myself. She was just like, “Take your hands off and let me do it.” ... It would not come off. [Laughs]" (source)

The other "Shhh..." tats are on Rihanna's fingers. .



Looks like she's wearing some extra bling too. A nipple ring piercing was visible through her sheer tank on the red carpet at the MuchMusic Video Awards.

Rihanna hosted a surprise birthday party at the Star Lounge for Melissa Forde, where she showcased some star tattoos at the party that are on her neck and back.

Trista and Ryan: Return to reality?

Trista and Ryan Sutter where personally always my fave couple- seeing as they are the only ones to actually get married and STAY that way after meeting on the TV show "The Bachelor". Ryan was also the cutest contestants so far in my opinion. The cute couple fell in love in the first season of The Bachelorette in 2003, and now they’re returning to reality TV!
The couple, who have an 11 yr old son (Max), have been meeting with Martha Stewart to collaborate on a new series, LIFE & STYLE WEEKLY reports. “The details are still being hashed out, but it has to do with fixing up houses,” says an insider.
The show isn’t the only thing they're working on. At Modern Bride’s trendsetters awards dinner in NYC on May 13, Trista, 35, told Life & Style that she and Ryan, 33, are trying to have another child. “It took us two years to get pregnant with Max,” she said. “It’s okay if it takes us that long again, but we’d rather have them closer in age. We’ll see!”

Cynthia Nixon Talks About Breast Cancer Battle

Two years after first being diagnosed, Cynthia Nixon says she successfully battled breast cancer.

Nixon, who's best known for her role of Miranda Hobbes on “Sex and the City”, said she was diagnosed when she was in the off-Broadway show “The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.”

Her reason for not going public was understandibly because of not wanting to deal with papparazi swarming the hospital. Nixon, who lives in New York City, had a lumpectomy two years ago and then underwent six and a half weeks of radiation.

Her mother Ann also battled the disease twice, said Nixon, who has two children. "As the daughter of a breast cancer survivor, knowing my personal risk made me more aware and more empowered when I faced my own diagnosis," the 42-year-old actress said in a statement she issued. The diagnosis of cancer in Nixon’s right breast mirrored the plot of the “Sex and the City" television show, in which Kim Cattrall’s character Samantha Jones successfully battled the disease.

Nixon will be a spokeswoman for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation next year. "I want to help Susan G. Komen for the Cure educate the 1.1 million women around the globe who face a diagnosis each year," she said. Nixon will serve as an ambassador for the organization and will share her cancer experiences in a series of Web videos.

Sex And The City Movie: Does Someone Die?

Just like me, I'm sure you guys are all eagerly anticipating the arrival of Sex And The City: The Movie. As you may know, the directors several different scenes and pictures to throw us all off tracks as to what the actual storyline will be. Smart move.

Apparently... Cynthia Nixon (Miranda) cleverly let it slip to host Billy Eichner during the Creation Nation comedy show at the Zipper Theater (15.04.08), that some one's character dies. *Gasp!*

But who could it be? The sassy redhead refused to divulge who dies, opening the door for the world to start coming up with it's own story lines.

Guess I will have to wait till the end of May... :)
