Rihanna takes a break to party 2011

March 12, 2011 - WHEN pop superstar Rihanna wants to party, she goes to Adelaide's Electric Circus. The Barbados-born singer let her hair down with tour DJ Calvin Harris and comedian and ladies man Arj Barker at the popular Crippen Place club after her Thursday night concert at the Entertainment Centre.

Although initially escorted up to exclusive bar, Limbo, which was reserved for the star entertainer, 23, Rihanna later insisted she be taken downstairs to EC, where Calvin was playing a sold-out gig.
Mixing with average punters on the dancefloor - albeit behind two burly security guards - Rihanna partied the night away with her dancers and members of her band.

Electric Circus promotions manager Stuart Duckworth says the sexy singer had an amazing time.

"She loved it, she told us she thought it was one of the coolest clubs in Australia. She was very surprised Adelaide has a place like it," he says.

"She was very relaxed, waving to people and having a few drinks with her crew.

The singing sensation kicked on until about 3am before her team of minders left the club.

Later, Rihanna tweeted: "Australia ROCKS!! Adelaide, what a night." Rihanna has been keeping a low profile while on tour in Australia and hasn't been out drinking with her entourage.

Superstar Rihanna Announces J. Cole Will Join Her and Cee Lo Green on the North American Loud Tour

Extraordinary live entertainer and pop music superstar Rihanna confirms critically acclaimed lyricist and fellow Roc Nation artist J. Cole will join her, and incomparable musical genius Cee Lo Green, on the LOUD North American tour. The North American leg featuring Rihanna, Cee Lo Green and J. Cole begins on June 4th in Baltimore, at the 1st Mariner Arena, with 28 dates confirmed and more to be announced soon. Tickets for the Live Nation produced tour are available at Ticketmaster.com and Live Nation.com.

Over 760,000 fans around the globe have tickets to join Rihanna for a night to remember. Following the North American leg, Rihanna will take her show internationally for 56 shows, beginning September 29th in Europe, with sell outs in nearly every market. Global ticket sales for the 2011 LOUD tour have already surpassed total ticket sales for Rihanna's 2010 global tour, Last Girl on Earth, which drew nearly 500,000 fans.

"I'm excited to be heading out with Rihanna on the North American leg of her LOUD Tour. I have a high respect for both RiRi and Cee Lo, and I appreciate the opportunity to perform in front of an audience as large and diverse as theirs." said J. Cole.

Rihanna's current smash single, "S&M" has sold more than 1.2 million digital copies from her hit album LOUD which has given fans a string of #1 hit songs including, "Only Girl" and "What's My Name." Rihanna has sold a collective 26 million albums and 46 million digital singles since her debut in 2005.
Cole released his first mixtape in 2007 which found its way throughout music circles and led to his signing with Roc Nation. With the ability to write thought provoking songs packed with sharp wit and clever lines, Cole is able to connect with listeners in a way that is seldom seen among MCs today. Cole's unique abilities have led him to a successful tour with Drake, an appearance on JAY-Z's "A Star Is Born" (Blueprint 3), as well as, the covers of the Source, XXL and inclusion in BET's "Rising Icons" series. Cole's highly anticipated studio album is scheduled to be released later this year.

Grammy Award winner Cee Lo Green is enjoying phenomenal success from his current smash single "Forget You" from his acclaimed third solo release, CEE LO GREEN THE LADY KILLER. The song became a viral video phenomenon prior to winning a Grammy for "Best Urban/Alternative Performance," at this year's 53rd Annual Grammy Awards ceremony. Cee Lo began his career as part of the renowned and influential Atlanta hip hop group Goodie Mob prior to breaking out on his own as Cee Lo Green. Cee Lo released his acclaimed debut solo album CEE LO GREEN AND HIS PERFECT IMPERFECTIONS in 2002 to incredible critical applause and followed up in 2004 with CEE LO GREEN IS THE SOUL MACHINE. Cee Lo is also part of the superstar duo Gnarls Barkley with heralded alternative music producer Danger Mouse, whose debut album featured the genre crossing global hit single, "Crazy."

Rihanna And Ciara’s Twitter War

28 February, 2011 - A row has erupted on Twitter after Ciara declared in a TV interview that Rihanna “wasn’t the nicest”.

"I ran into her recently at a party and she wasn't the nicest," Ciara told US show Fashion Police. "It's crazy because I've always loved and respected what she's done with fashion and I've ran into her before but this time it wasn't the most pleasant run-in."

The Only Girl In The World star wasn’t best pleased to be talked about like that and confronted Ciara on Twitter straight after the show had aired. "My bad ci, did I forget to tip u? "howrudeofme"

Ciara was quick to retaliate: "Trust me Rhianna u dont want to see me on or off stage." The What’s My Name singer replied: "U gangsta huh? Haaa. Good luck with bookin that stage u speak of."

But thankfully, the ladies have since kissed and made up, on Twitter at least. It was Rihanna who made the first move: "Ciara baby, I love u girl! You hurt my feelings real bad on TV! I’m heartbroken! That’s y I retaliated this way! So sorry! "letsmakeup."

Ciara then offered her own olive branch – but stopped short of apologising – and suggested they meet in person to sort things out in private: "Rhi u know it’s always been love since day 1! Doing shows/everything. You threw me off in that party! Apology accepted. Let's chat in person."

Both singers are exes of Chris Brown, which might explain some of the bad feeling between them. We’re pretty sure Rihanna didn’t appreciate having her name misspelt either…

Delightfully Flirty at Reb Fleur Fragrance Launch

May 01, 2011, (Sawf News) - Rihanna looked a stunner in an ivory polka dot figure hugging Mandalay dress at an event to plug her Reb'l Fleur Fragrance at Macy's Herald Square in NYC on April 29.

The flirty short dress had a revealing neckline, black lace shoulder straps and ruching at the skirt. A black satin sash and a cascading side panel added to the fun detailing of the dress.

The 23-year-old accessorized with nude Christian Louboutin pointy pumps and gold jewelry - oversized hoop earrings and a cuff in her right arm.

Her ultra feminine hairdo stole the show. She tied her red hair in a sleek high knot with middle parted bangs framing her face.

Rihanna walked the red carpet in a similar updo at DKMS' 5th Annual Gala at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City the previous evening. The singer was honored in recognition of her help to leukemia sufferers in finding bone marrow donors.

Rihanna was surprised with the kind of response she got at the Macy's.

"This shit looks like a parade... MACY's" she tweeted as she arrived at the venue in the afternoon.

She thanked everyone after the event.
"Thanx to all my lovers for showing #MAJAH support @ Macy's today #RebLFleur it was a huge success thanks to u and the hard working staff!"

The fragrance title Reb'l Fleur is inspired by one of Rihanna's nearly 14 tattoos. She has the French words "Rebelle Fleur" written on the left side of her neck that she got inked in the fall of 2010. The phrase means a rebel flower.

Rihanna Shoots ‘Man Down’ Video in Jamaica

Rihanna returned to her island roots, traveling to Jamaica to shoot a video for “Man Down,” a fan favorite off her Loud album.

In one of the first two camera phone pics from the set, the Barbados beauty rides a bike while filming in Portland, a parish located on the island’s northeast coast.

“WELCOME TA JAMROCK!!! #projectmandown,” tweeted RiRi, who reunited with director Anthony Mandler for the visuals.
