Rihanna Does Paris!

Rihanna @ John Galliano

Rihanna @ Swarovski Party

A brief round-up of Rihanna's European fashion show circuit, combined with her on-going series of concerts throughout the continent. Though no Dita Von Teese, she still looks as fab as always, though those gray suede shoes she wore at the Galliano show are an eyesore. They look like native-American moccasins!

Go Amy Go!

I stayed up last night to watch the Grammy Awards just to be able to watch Amy Winehouse's live performance. As she was not granted an US Visa in a timely fashion she resorted to a via-satellite performance from London - and was all worth the wait because she rocked! She grabbed five of the six awards she was running for including record of the year, song of the year and best new artist. She looked very surprised with all her awards as she fumbled words thanking her family and dedicating it "To my Blake, incarcerated!" - as her hubby is serving a jail sentence for a pub brawl. Amy looked fab in her black mini-dress and trade-mark beehive and gave out a full bodied soulful voice that would impress even the Winehouse skeptics. She sang "You Know I'm No Good" and "Rehab", songs that couldn't be more right-on in regards to her troubled past months. I think she is a fantastic singer and I was all smiles watching her sing and accept her golden gramophones.

Fergie performed next to John Legend and proved she can hold a tune like the best of then. I didn't love her outfit as that long neck scarf looked too "old lady" for her.

Fabulous Rihanna also rocked the house performing with The Times in one of the opening numbers. She is just so gorgeous and talented that she can do no wrong in my eyes and she glowed on stage last night. She didn't go home empty handed though as she won for best Rap/Song Collaboration with Jay-Z for "Umbrella" .

Tina Turner and Beyonce also had an outstanding Grammy performance in their "Proud Mary" duet - one of my favorites. Tina is still as hot and energetic as in her "Private Dancer" days and exhuded her "legend-status diva" even when rocking next to one of today's hottest talents.

Kanye West gave one of those cocky acceptance speechs that made me want to throw up. I get that people should have positive images of themselves but why do some rap/hip hop artists need to be so stuck up? Thumbs down!

I was shocked to see how HUGE Aretha Franklyn has become! I know she's an older lady and all but she looked like a small planet in that horrible one-shoulder lime green dress when performing during that b-o-r-i-n-g gospel number. She is way too fat to be exposing her arms, specially on live TV. The spaghetti straps on her gown were stuck deep in the creases of her shoulder fat and that was not a pretty sight. At least she had the clue to cover up her arms at the post-Grammy party, seen above with Brandy. Aretha is a legend and deserves all r-e-s-p-e-c-t but she needs a new stylist really bad!

Rihanna @ FHM Mexico

Just another lame-poor excuse to showcase gorgeous Rihanna here at Little-Pumpkins. This time she is dripping-wet on the cover of the Mexican edition of FHM magazine.

Rihanna, get a towel girl or you will catch a cold! Better yet - get an umbrella-ella-ella...

Love you!

Dreams of F*cking an R&B B*tch Tee

Canadian label Finale put out a quite, er, how can I put this...thought-provoking T-shirt. The effigies of many notable chanteuses and what-nots like Chaka Khan, Beyonce, Lauryn Hill, Sade, Whitney Houston and Rihanna, to name a few, adorn this lovely tee. The piece-de-resistance is the poetical verse that is printed below: "Dreams of F*cking and R&B B*tch", with the face of some chubby-faced rapper-looking guy (Biggie, is that you?) in lieu of the **.

A charmer, don't you think?

Rihanna Gets a Spanking @ GQ

Barbados stunner Rihanna is one GORGEOUS woman and she is not shy about showing off the goods in a kinky GQ spread. She gets a good spanking from some guy - Robin Thicke - that is also a fellow singer. I must live under a rock but I have no clue who he is... Maybe I've heard his song in the radio but the name didn't stick. Getting back to Rihanna, she is wearing some delicious outfits Cavalli, D2 Squared, D&G and Luis Vuitton, but my favorite is the gold Tomas Maier bathing suit on the photo below. HOT!

Pitty Does Rihanna - Umbrella

Brazilian singer Pitty covers Rihanna's smash hit "Umbrella" at a live concert in Sorocaba, SP. Pitty adds in her rock'n'roll-chick attitude and does not disappoint! I find her very cool and love her overall attitude. She hails from Bahia, a place that has been producing Brazilian music deities for decades. She goes against the grain by not singing axe or regional folk stuff. Her musical style, and looks, have a much harder edge than the hippie-dippy Bahian vibe. Check out her official site too, great web design! Loved it!

The Song of Summer - Rihanna

Rihanna has claimed Summer 2007 as her own. Her smash hit "Umbrella" is one of the most played songs of the season and she shows that she is here to stay. The 19 year-old was born in Barbados and her new album " Good Girls Gone Bad" is already her 3rd US release. Besides being very talented it doesn't hurt that she is also stunningly beautiful. Watch her live performance via AOL Live Sessions and tell me what you think.
