Rihanna “opens up” to magazine Rolling Stones about her reasons for lifting the restraining order against Chris Brown:

“We don’t have to talk again ever in my life. I just didn’t want to make it more difficult for him professionally…..Saying he has to be a hundred feet away from me, he can’t perform at awards shows – that definitely made it difficult for him.”

But “you can never please people,” she says. “One minute I’m being too hard, and the next minute I’m a fool because I’m not being hard enough.”

Going further, Rihanna shared some likes in the bedroom…for those of you interested….

“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 shit. That’s fun to me…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.I think I’m a bit masochistic. [***the condition in which sexual gratification depends on suffering, physical pain, and humiliation]. I love feeling like I’m somebody’s girl. I think that is common in people who witnessed abuse in their childhood.”

Rihanna and Colin Farrell are the latest pair to hit the rumour mill. Apparently the pair are now dating after leaving the Santa Monica resturant Giorgio Baldi ….separately . With flirty text messages being sent to each other since they swapped numbers earlier this year when they both appeared on The Graham Norton Show.

What do you think? Is this true??

A judge just lifted the restraining order prohibiting Chris Brown from going near Rihanna!

Brown appeared in court  in downtown L.A., where a judge replaced Rihanna’s restraining order with a level one order — meaning Chris and Rihanna can have contact as long as he does not harass, annoy, or molest her.

Rihanna was not in court — but her attorney Donald Etra told the judge RiRi has no objection to the new order.

It seems Rihanna has upset Donald Trump by not performing at cancer fundraiser he had planned…

Rihanna was offered $500,000 to perform but the offer was turned down last minute due to her being  ill. Rihanna however, performed at the half-time of the NBA All-Stars game, and held a birthday party for herself. Jennifer Hudson stepped in and performed instead.

Donald Trump stated:

I thought that (canceling) was insulting to everyone. But for Rihanna to go to the (NBA) All-Star game and perform after she told us she was sick, that is just a lack of respect………Nothing was missed. Jennifer’s a beautiful girl. She came on her day off even though she performs almost every night. She is an unbelievable talent, and her voice is better.”

Rihanna’s rep in turn replied:

“Rihanna was recovering (from) bronchitis and her doctor advised her not to get on a plane as she would risk losing her voice and damaging her vocal chords. She feels terrible she couldn’t attend but was so grateful Jennifer Hudson graciously stepped in.”

LaChappelle, one of the fashion industry’s most respected fashion photographers is suing Rihanna as her S&M video was “directly derived” from his pictures.

LaChapelle, who has photographed celebrities – Lady Gaga, Kanye West, Chris Rock and Madonna, for magazines such as Vanity Fair and Rolling Stone, is suing for unspecified damages.

LaChappelle said Rihanna has appropriated eight of his images into the video, including one where she is shown in profile against a blue background with a sweet on her tongue.

The case states that Rihanna’s video copied the “composition, total concept, feel, tone, mood, theme, colours, props, settings, decors wardrobe and lighting” of his work.

A spokeswoman for the singer was not immediately available for comment.
