According to reports, Rihanna is planning on adopting a baby from Haiti!

Sources say that the singer is gearing up to take an orphaned baby from the area. The snitch said, “She’s dead-set on becoming a mom to a child from Haiti, and she’s just had lawyers make contacts.”

We’re finding this one a little hard to believe. Rihanna is financially secure enough to do whatever she wants with her life, but she still is only 23-years-old and has an insanely successful career.

The source went on to reveal, “Rihanna doesn’t see herself having a biological child anytime soon because she doesn’t have a man in her life – plus, after all the drama with Chris Brown, she’s suspicious of guys.”

The source added, “But mainly, she says, she needs to make her life less about her and more about someone else. She’s getting enthusiastic support from mentor Jay-Z and wife Beyonce and asked them to be godparents! This is about Rihanna getting out from under herself and making a difference in the world – starting with one child!”

Do you believe the rumors? If she is, in fact, set on becoming a mother, then more power to her. We’re sure she’ll make a good one. What do you think?

During last night’s MTV Video Music Awards, Chris Brown was said to have put on quite the show. So much, in fact, people were left commenting about how good it was. Celebrities in attendance, stood and clapped for the often troubled singer. With one exception, of course.

As Kanye West and others stood up and clapped, Jay-Z was sitting tight, looking bored. After all, Jay is probably still holding a grudge against Chris for what he did to Rihanna. He discovered Rihanna, so it stands to reason that he’s still holding on to a beef with him.

Either that, or he’s busy with babies on the brain. Beyonce announced her pregnancy on the red carpet at the event and even showed off her baby bump!

What do you think of the situation? Is Jay still not feeling any reason to be nice to Chris Brown, no matter how many times he moonwalks on the stage? Sound off in the comments!

We’re hoping that this is merely a rumor, but according to reports, Rihanna and Chris Brown have started dating again. Ugh.

Chris brutally beat Rihanna in 2009, but has since served his time for his crime. And now that the restraining order has been lifted, they’re said to have grown closer.

A source said, “Ri-Ri’s always loved Chris – that never changed. They’ve texted and Skyped each other a lot recently and met up at a mutual friend’s house in Los Angeles after the restraining order expired.”

Now, they’re said to be giving things another chance. The insider said, “Ri-Ri wants to be with Chris but is worried about her career and fans. She’s trying to find a way to take him back publicly without letting down her supporters, her management and her friends or setting a bad example. Chris has said he’ll be as patient as she needs him to be but after being slammed on Twitter for just following him, she’s begun to worry that they may never get to be together in public.”

What do you think of the reports?

Rihanna has revealed that she thought Russell Brand was an idiot when she first met him! In her defense, he probably gets that a lot!

She said that she did not like Russell when she first met him because she was sick and didn’t find him funny.

In a new interview, she said, “I first met him when he was interviewing me on TV. I was sick and it was the worst interview I’ve ever done. I was throwing up in a bucket and a doctor gave me a shot in my butt. Nothing was funny to me. I thought it was the most stupid f**king interview I ever did in my f**king life.”

She revealed, “Why am I talking to this idiot? He made me want to throw up again.”

Later, she changed her mind about him when they met for the second time and has admitted to being nasty. She said, “We did another interview on MTV and I realized he was funny. I was probably a complete b*tch, but only months afterward did I get it.”

Rihanna has revealed that she thinks men are intimidated by her because of her success. Is she right???

She has multiple hit songs and albums and world tours as marks of her achievements, and has revealed that men might be intimidated by that. In a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest, she said, “Not to sound crazy, but yes [I think men feel intimidated]. And I think that’s very difficult because it’s a lot for them to handle, especially being in the public eye. It can be difficult. It can be tricky.”

She added, “There’s gonna be someone who is not intimidated or not afraid to put me in my place.”

Do you think that Rihanna intimidates men?

Rihanna recently had her restraining order against Chris Brown lightened so that they could attend the same events without issue for him.

One blogger, Sandra Rose reportedly criticized Rihanna for not continuing the restraining order, calling it a “disgrace”.

Now, Rihanna used her piece in Rolling Stone to hit back at the writer, saying, “A lot of people get so brave behind the computer screen.”

She went on to say, “When she’s jumping to conclusions about my personal decision, it really p**sed me off. That’s my decision. You don’t make that decision for me.”

And just because the restraining order has been relaxed, it doesn’t mean that she has any plans to reunite with Chris. She added, “It doesn’t mean we’re gonna be in a relationship, or make up, or even talk ever again. We don’t have to talk again ever in my life. I just didn’t want to make it more difficult for him professionally.”

So far, 2011 has been full of rumors that celebrities are pregnant, cheating or adopting. Whether it’s through their publicists or just Twitter, we present the top ten rumors that have been debunked already this year.

1. Katy Perry & Rihanna
Rumor: Katy Perry was feuding with Rihanna

2. Lindsay Lohan & Tom Hardy
Rumor: Lindsay Lohan dating Tom Hardy
How It Started: Who cares, it’s Tom freakin’ Hardy!

Rumor: Jennifer Aniston is adopting a Mexican baby
How It Started: Star magazine just can’t seem to leave Jennifer alone. They reported in a recent issue that the adoption papers were already “signed and sealed”.

7. Sandra Bullock & Ryan Reynolds
Rumor: Sandra Bullock & Ryan Reynolds are dating
How It Started: They spent New Year’s Eve together as friends — and the tabloids did the rest of the work.
Resolution: Sandra talked with Al Roker on The Today Show and said that she doesn’t “get his loving after dark.”

What was your favorite rumor so far this year that’s been debunked? What would you add?

Rihanna said that she was so shocked and sickened at the first time nude photos of her were leaked that she locked herself inside of a bathroom in an airport.

She says that she had landed in Hawaii in 2009 when she was alerted to the photos online, by friends on her cell phone.

She said, “I could barely stand. I went to the first bathroom I saw and just sat in the stall with the door open. People kept coming in and staring at me sitting on the toilet bowl. I was mortified. I didn’t even want to leave the airport.”

The pictures were reportedly sent to her boyfriend at the time, Chris Brown.

A scantily clad Rihanna covers the latest issue of Rolling Stone magazine.

In her interview with the magazine, she talked about sex, getting spanked and sex photos. We like saucy!

Her thoughts on sex:

“I like to take charge, but I love to be submissive. Being submissive in the bedroom is really fun. You get to be a little lady, to have somebody be macho and in charge of your s**t. That’s sexy to me. I work a lot, and I have to make a lot of executive decisions, so when it comes to being intimate, I like to feel like I’m somebody’s girl.”

Spanking:

“I like to be spanked. Being tied up is fun. I like to keep it spontaneous. Sometimes whips and chains can be overly planned – you gotta stop, get the whip from the drawer downstairs… I’d rather have him use his hands.”

Sexy photos:

“When you’re not with the person you want to be intimate with, a picture is the next best thing. Well, Skype is safer. But a picture lasts a long time. When you’re alone, and those horny moments come up, pictures can be very handy. I haven’t gotten a d*ck picture in a long time. I think people are a little afraid. It can turn out bad.”

Sexy!!!

Rihanna and Katy Perry are still best friends, make no mistake about that!

Last year, it was reported that Rihanna said in an interview, “I didn’t want the generic pop record that Kesha or Lady Gaga or Katy Perry would do. Every song is tailored to me.”

Rumors started swirling suggesting that the two friends weren’t speaking to each other. In a recent interview, Rihanna debunked the rumors, saying, “I didn’t say that. Did you see the interview? That’s not what I said. Okay, if anything it was a diss to songwriters and producers who can’t make anything other than formula records.”

She went on to reveal, “They’ll make a song and give it to Rihanna. If she doesn’t take it, they’ll take it to Katy, and if Katy doesn’t take it they’ll give it to Gaga. That’s not what we want. We like songs that scream our individuality. We like records that speak for who we are as artists and that are tailored to us.”

And there you have it!

We’ve heard the reports that Colin Farrell and Rihanna are getting serious and that their relationship is heating up, but according to a reliable source with Colin’s camp, the rumors are just BS!

Reportedly, Rihanna and Colin have “fallen hard for one another and it’s moving quickly”. So quickly, that the rumors have stated that he’s even introducing her to his kids! Okay….

We do know one thing as a fact, they DID meet on the Graham Norton Show back in November, but the rest of these rumors stink of someone not checking their facts.

A source close to Colin says that the reports are “not true.” And there you have it!

Rihanna and her red hair are featured on the cover of the latest issue of Vogue magazine!

Rihanna covers the newest Shape issue and on the inside, she talks about “fame, family and how she really feels about her curves”.

She looks good! You go girl! I love that dress!!!

Yesterday, we told you that Chris Brown gave a new interview where he referred to the Rihanna incident as a “mishap”. Now, we’re hearing that he is taking that back, saying that the comment wasn’t related to the beating incident. Interesting.

RadarOnline has the juice:

But RadarOnline.com has obtained the entire interview and learned that Brown was trying to express the frustrations and pitfalls of fame in the context of defining the meaning of his new album F.A.M.E., which stands for Forgiving All My Enemies and also Fans Are My Everything.

Wait, so they don’t have a quote and they’re just speculating based purely on the fact that they’ve gotten ahold of the entire interview. Eff the mass media….they suck.

What do you think?j

Chris Brown gave a new interview, presumably in promotion for his upcoming album, F.A.M.E. He called the Rihanna beating incident a “mishap” and said that he’s not going to continue apologizing!

Wow, I’ve never had a mishap where someone I loved ended up black and blue from the royal beatdown that I gave them. But I guess that’s the difference between us and celebrities.

He said, “People are always gonna talk. But I’m in a positive place. I consider myself a grown ass man. At the end of the day, if I walk around and apologizing to everybody, I’m gonna look like a damn fool.”

Even though his fans stuck by him, he said that a lot of people turned their backs on him. He went on to say that folks “turned away. They don’t want to get involved with it because they don’t want their name attached to anything negative. Unknowingly, they kind of show their true colors when they do that.”

He added, “You can’t blame people for how they want to be portrayed or if they don’t want to be associated with somebody who had a particular mishap. The last two years, everybody dissed me. But my fans were so dedicated. The way I look at it is, you can’t walk around mad, because then you just prove everybody right that you’re an angry person.”

What do you think of his statements? Let us know in the comments!

Last week, there were rumors floating around suggesting that Rihanna was going to take the role that Whitney Houston made famous in the remake of The Bodyguard — now we’re hearing that’s not true.

Rihanna has since denied the reports, saying that she is not interested in doing acting roles of which also involve any singing.

In a recent interview, she said, “Absolutely not. I want to separate the two. I hate it when singers do singing movies all the time because you can never look at them as anybody else.”

When asked about her career as an actress, she said, “I want to play a character, my whole life is playing Rihanna, being a singer won’t be a stretch for me. I like challenges and being an actor is playing a role, being able to step into somebody else’s shoes, that’s the excitement.”

Are you bummed that she won’t be doing The Bodyguard? Did you think she was a good fit for the part?

Now that Chris Brown allegedly leaked his own nude photos, he probably thinks that it opened the door for talking about his abuse of former girlfriend, Rihanna. Now that he has completed his community service, he feels that he’s been forgiven. Because, of course, there’s totally an expiration date on how long it takes the public to get over something so horrific, right?

In a recent interview, he said, “A handful of people stuck by me. But when most people see certain things happen to somebody, they usually turn away. They don’t want to get involved with it because they don’t want their name attached to anything negative.”

He revealed that there are artists out there who actually want to work with him now. He added, “They wanna get on the record. They wanna let me back in the door. The last two years, everybody dissed me, but my fans were so dedicated. The way I look at it is, you can’t walk around mad, because then you just prove everybody right that you’re an angry person.”

Have you forgiven Chris?

It’s not the first time Rihanna has shed her clothes for public consumption! The singer took it all off for her new campaign for Nivea!

Rihanna has teamed up with the skincare giant for their new ad campaign to celebrate their 100th anniversary. Nivea is also sponsoring her upcoming North American and European tour, which will kick off in May.

What do you think of her exposing herself for the sake of ad sales?

Back in February 2009, right before the Grammy Awards, Chris Brown brutally attacked Rihanna and left her beaten and bruised.

MediaTakeOut says that the above photo is of Chris right after the incident. As you can PLAINLY see (LULZ), he suffered an injury as a result of the injury, as well.

Can you spot his injury? Hint: It’s on his lip. Still can’t? It just doesn’t compare, does it? So shameful.

He is NOT winning.

Chris Brown has gone and dyed his hair blond!

I guess it’s anything that would do well to take the attention off of the newly released photos of Rihanna’s 2009 beating.

I don’t really care for this color on him, it just makes him a blond douchebag now, don’t you think? Are you digging this new color? Let us know in the comments!

And for what it’s worth, Cisqo is a trending topic on Twitter….Coincidence?

Some more brutal photos of Rihanna have been leaked online by MediaTakeOut (via TMZ) and they’re pretty gruesome. The photos appear to be taken on the night that she suffered the brutal attack at the hands of then-boyfriend, Chris Brown.

After the jump, there’s another photo. (continue reading…)

Rumors were aflutter yesterday suggesting that Colin Farrell and Rihanna had a non-stop sexting relationship. The two met on the Graham Norton Show, which was filmed right before Christmas.

Reportedly, Colin had worked his charms on Rihanna to such an extent she hasn’t stopped texting him.” And, after exchanging phone numbers, things got intense with the saucy messages that she was sending him!

A source said, “Colin was taken aback by some of the texts. He reckons he might well be in there. They’re both single, so why not? Colin and Rihanna have made plans to meet up in L.A. when their hectic schedules allow.”

A source close to Colin says that these latest Rihanna rumors are “not true.”

The judge in Chris Brown’s assault case against Rihanna has lifted the restraining order, prohibiting him from going near her.

Tuesday, Chris appeared in court in Los Angeles, where the judge modified the restraining order to a level one — meaning that the two can have contact with each other as long as he doesn’t harass her.

I hope that he has really learned his lesson in all of this. Maybe one day his career can really recover? What do you think?

We’ve got some good red carpet photos for you from tonight’s Grammy Awards!

On the red carpet, we got photos of Miley Cyrus, Adam Lambert (above), Justin Bieber, Kim and Rob Kardashian, Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes, Jennifer Lopez and Katy Perry!

In the Katy photos, she’s seen walking the red carpet with her grandmother, wearing her white angel wings. Justin Bieber sported an all white suit on the red carpet, as well. Rihanna was also there, and she still looked like she wasn’t feeling the greatest. Poor thing!
