Have U Heard??

Rihanna is in Germany promoting her latest album Rated R.  Sporting a funky spiked denim jacket, Rihanna looked beautiful with her blond hair.

Rihanna was at the MediaMarkit home electronics store at Berlin’s Alexa shopping mall signing autographs and meeting with her many fans.

Rihanna has been making news in the U.S. over a lawsuit that her personal trainer, Cindy Percival, filed in L.A. County Superior Court last week, claiming she owes her over $26,000 from invoices dating back to 2009.

Rihanna’s Rude Boy video has premiered!! The new video of the singing sensation’s latest single was directed by Melina Matsoukas with a Pop Art look and feel.
Rihanna’s thoughts,

“A lot of my videos are really dark and edgy and tough. ‘Rude Boy’ is more playing along the lines from my roots… We used a lot of color, but also the costumes were very Jamaican dance-hall queen type.”

What are your thoughts about the new video below??

Justin Bieber ran into his number one girl crush Rihanna at the gifting lounge for the Grammy’s at the Staples Center in L.A.

This isn’t the first time Justin and Rihanna have kissed. Justin, who admits to having a huge crush on Rihanna, got a big kiss from Rihanna on a taping on 106 & Park back in December.  He also swears he hasn’t washed his face since.  Justin twittered,

Thanks for refreshing the lipstick mark @rihanna

When she wasn’t being wooed by Bieber, Rihanna  picked up some Marley Coffee in the gifting lounge.  Have U Heard will be covering the Grammy’s tomorrow night, January 31, 2010.  Be sure to come back!!

Rihanna performed Bob Marley’s Redemption Song, Wednesday(Jan.20)  on Oprah’s special about the devastation in Haiti following last week’s earthquake.

The singer said she chose the Redemption Song because,

“Growing up, anytime there was a difficult situation, I always listened to this song ‘caus it was so liberating.

“Even now I listen to it when my back is up against the wall and I feel like the people Haiti need to hear something inspiring.”

Rihanna will join Jay-Z and U2 stars Bono and The Edge for another Haiti-inspired performance as part of George Clooney’s Hope For Haiti Now telethon on Friday(Jan.22).

Rihanna was spotted in Mexico kissing her new boyfriend, LA Dodger Matt Kemp.  

Rihanna and Kemp also rang in the new year together in Dubai. 

It’s great to see Rihanna happy and moving on with her life.  

Kemp was interviewed by YoungHollywood.com recently where he discussed his requirements for the perfect mate.   Kemp likes his ladies independent, pretty  and nice teeth are also important. 

Kemp stressed that his perfect girl would be,

“somebody who can go off and do their own thing and not have to worry about me all the time.”

It sounds like Rihanna fits Kemp’s description of his perfect mate.

Rihanna was spotted arriving in London from Paris.  The Russian Roulette singer was wearing a black fur cap and was holding a Vogue magazine – very tightly.

Rihanna appears on the cover of GQ for the January 2010 issue.   She bares all in a series of five photos inside the magazine.

In the accompanying interview, Rihanna described the snaps as “sexy”.  She also expressed relief at being able to freely discuss her controversial break-up with Chris Brown earlier in the year.

“It’s relieving. Because it was built up for so long, and all these thoughts and emotions have been running through my mind for the past eight months,” she said.

Has anyone seen the photos from GQ??  If so – what are your thoughts??
