Here’s Rih Rih on the cover of yet another magazine. This girl gets more media play than a mutha. The alleged “Fashion Icon” was spotted shopping during a recent vacation in Milan huddled up with a peculiar looking entourage.

More of Rih-Rih and her “crew” on the flipside

  • lil nickey

    FIRST

  • CJ

    1st

  • tones

    first baby

  • Nurse GiGi

    Nice

  • http://www.myspace.com/ocky_j Octavia

    Maybe I’m getting too old to keep up, but I just don’t see it. What is all the hype for? She’s not particularly striking physically, vocally, personality wise….

    Yet she’s all over the place. (???) Odd.

  • forrelly

    i love rihanna! she’s stunning and even has white girls all jealous!

  • http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/e084de98d1f3d8ab064d94a7476117fd?s=80&r=any WyzePro

    I know a sista from Detroit named Octavia….

  • CJ

    Screw you lil nickey j/p

  • VeeZee

    She’ll be getting booed soon at one of these N***A award shows. You know how WE do it!

  • Anika

    Yeah so… What’s this obssession with being 1st?!

  • lil latte(had her puppies on 4th of july)

    I am surprised the gossip mags haven’t put any damaging dirt out on her yet as much attention as she gets…

  • WHAT?

    @ forrelly, NO!!! Not white girls!!! LOL, cause they’re so gorgeous right, Niggha puhleeze

  • Paint it Red

    Rihanna can do no wrong, she’s staying in her lane.

  • http://www.google.com Man, I just don’t care

    @Octavia

    I think she gets lot of hype because:

    1.she’s been linked to every guy (Jay-Z,Chris Brown,every white guy in Hollyweird)

    2.she’s young and new

    3.The only other person out is Beyonce

    Please add your opinion…

  • SUNNYDAYZ

    SHE IS COOL ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS SHE CAN’T SING BUT SHE IS BRINGING SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO THE TABLE ….. AND WE CAN’T LIE SHE IS REALLY DIFFERENT

  • PANAMA’S FINEST

    CUTE GIRL..

    BUT, FOR SOME REASON.. THAT HAIR CUT MAKES HER NECK LOOK MUSCULAR. :)

  • Just Sayin

    Question: Is it me or is she one of dem lil head people? You know da ones like a bowelin pen.

    :-)

  • Just Sayin

    @ PANAMA’S FINEST

    CUTE GIRL..

    BUT, FOR SOME REASON.. THAT HAIR CUT MAKES HER NECK LOOK MUSCULAR.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Dat ain’t why her neck look muscular! :-)

  • DaisyRose

    Rih-Rih always looks great, I love the new shorter do…It’s funny how black females especially americans ones can never compliment or be happy for another wowan. You guys always talk about being christian and all, u do know that ENVY in on of the 10 deadly sins, right ?

  • Lala

    she looks too made up – reminds me of one of those wax statues, i think she’s prettier with less make up. she does have manly features though but hey fame is not about talent these days, its about having the right people handling your career…

  • finesseyoswagger

    i’ll take a wild guess…the lady in the black and white is her mom.look @ her body lang. The nose and mouth look similar as well…

  • Just Sayin

    Every woman I know with a disproportionate head size and small breast are straight freaks…

    You don’t believe me try one and see.

    I think it’s a chemical imbalance.

    :-)

  • Just Sit and Be Pretty

    Good for her. Love her or hate her, Rhianna is definitely the “it” girl right now. Heard in the news today that she’s now repping for Gucci.

  • Encyclopedia Brown

    I’d appreciate if she didn’t represent black women, beings that she doesn’t really like black people

    Fact

  • and what…?

    She looks like a Madame Tussauds’ wax figure. And why is she all frowned up? What dahell she got to frown about? All her money? The fab clothes? The fab trips? The fab man? Geez… I want to frown too…so she can give me what she got!

  • southernbella

    “Take a Bow” is my guilty pleasure. And for some reason I’m always trying to bite one of her hairstyles, but I swear I can’t stand her.

    Can someone please explain this to me.

  • sniper

    Rihanna looks like an Alien, with far apart eyes and forehead galore.

  • azdelish

    I hate this girl…… She can not sing at all and that hair… please quit cutting it she looked better with her little bob.

  • Brooklyn, Stand UP!

    The girls in her entourage look like her. Especially the nose’s.

  • Earth Sign

    Rhi Rhi is on fire. I love some island women

  • http://YAHOO mzprettylady

    I like Rihanna.. Her fashion is always on point and I think her voice sounds different…plus take a bow is ma Jam I’ve been singing that out the window to my ex every chance I get! LMAO GO Rih Rih

  • http://www.myspace.com/ocky_j Octavia

    @ Man, I just don’t care:

    “I think she gets lot of hype because:

    1.she’s been linked to every guy (Jay-Z,Chris Brown,every white guy in Hollyweird)

    2.she’s young and new

    3.The only other person out is Beyonce

    Please add your opinion…”

    *waiting for someone to add “she’s talented” to the list*

  • SUNNYDAYZ

    @ LA LA I WOULD NOT SAY MANLY FEATURES SHE JUST HAS A VERY DEFINED JAW LINE AND EYE BROW BONE HIGH CHEEK BONES SHE IS LIKE A HALLE BERRY TOM BOYISH BUT SOFT AT THE SAME TIME I’VE SEEN WORSE

  • http://YAHOO mzprettylady

    After looking at the pictures more… is it just me or does every pretty girl in the industry have ugly ass chicks in there encourage…WTF do you think they do this to look prettier?? I have this rule and its probably stupid but I wont hangout or go partying with ugly chicks!!! Pretty girls always get special treatment especially when theirs a lot of you.

  • LdyK

    Daisy rose please STFU…that comment you made about black american women is soblanketed! grow up and get some culture…

    Wize pro…wow mouse face…lol

    I think Rhianna is cute..she cannot sing but she’s hot because she’s easily molded…she might reach herend..who knows.

  • LdyK

    @southern bella

    thank Ne-yo for that hit “take a bow”

  • bree

    this picture does not flatter Rihanna at all..she is such a pretty girl, but i don’t see that in this cover.

    I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW OVERRATTED SHE IS, GOD ALREADY. SHE CANT DRESS AND CLEARLY AS SHE SINGS, SHE SOUNDS HORRIBLE AND GOSH IM NOT A HATER, TOOK 13 YEARS FOR PEOPLE TO HATE BEYONCE

  • 2cute4u♥♥♥

    She really looks nice in that yellow dress, its good to see her in a color other than black…except her nail polish, I’m rockin’ the black nail polish too! Love those shoes!

  • http://lovingmeans@aol.com 1TruDiva w/the PlatinumVocals!!!

    *others

  • Mock Rock Star

    I have to give it 2 her…shes much better than when she first came out with “Pon de Replay” (God I hated that song!!!). I like her better with the short hair and edger songs and her voice isn’t as annoying as it was in “Pon de Replay”

  • http://lovingmeans@aol.com 1TruDiva w/the PlatinumVocals!!!

    Rihanna is a beautiful girl that I think would’ve fared better as a model.

  • I’m Just Me (I DO NOT PREFER LIGHTER SKIN-TONED GENTLEMEN)

    HEY DIVA

    She looks great!!

  • ~Godiva Luv~

    She is beautiful good to see her doing it big and she is doing it big.

  • I’m Just Me (I WISH A N*GGA WOULD)

  • http://lovingmeans@aol.com 1TruDiva w/the PlatinumVocals!!!

    Lol ! Plies with the “bust it baby”

    @ I’m just me–

    I just checked back in here to see if you’re still on. Please join me at Ms. Badu’s house. It makes for interesting reading.

  • Til You Do Right By Me…

    @ Southernbella,

    Because she’s fierce!! No She’s not a classic beauty in the true sense of the term…but she’s fierce..she’s not afraid of Fashion and she’s constantly changing her hairstyle and color. When you’re in the game like that…you don’t have to be classic beauty….but folks will remember you cuz you’re FIERCE and known to rock the heck out of some fashion! That’s why she’s on so many mag covers. I’m sorry I can’t hate on the girl…she doing her thang!

    While Bey is a classic beauty hands down…she’s not a trend setter in the fashion area…she listens to her mom too much and her stuff is too costumieee at times. A man will wife bey but he’ll cheat on you with a Rhi Rhi. Classic becomes boring while Fierce is ever changing. JMO

  • Nik

    Those friends are busted!

  • no talent

    til you do right by me sit your rihalien stan ass down. Beyonce is definitely a trendsetter. Who the hell do you think Rihalien looked like when she first came out. And your whole men will wife Bey but cheat on her with Rihalien statement was plain stupid. So you’re clarifying that Rihalien is a ho? And last time I checked Chris don’t even claim her and she has been linked to every man in Hollywood and none of them claimed her either so your whole statement was just dumb. Vagina is vagina and I’m sure Chris is cheating on Rihalien with one of his little groupies. Ain’t nothing beautiful classic or fierce about Rihalien so sit the hell down.

    I am so sick of the media shoving these no talent chicks down our throats. Rihalien is nothing but a bootleg Britney Spears. Neither one can sing but they get by on hot beats and songs that others wrote for them. Thank God we have real talented black women like Mariah, Mary, Alicia, Beyonce,etc out there to represent. People like Rihalien and Cassie are an embarassment to music.smh

  • NYC Gal

    Ri Ri is on firah right now!! Even Momma Fenty is looking good too. I didn’t even recognize her because she lost alot of weight.

  • http://www.industryfinest.com Hip-Hop Music

    Over Exposured, Naw!!!!!

  • Crustbetweenmytoes

    mainly…well…she’s a nice looking young black woman. there are lots of nice looking young black women. they show too many white women on the t.v. and hold them up like prizes and black men get confused and start hating black skin. and then some of them want the closest thing to white. but then again, i know some men who do not want to date a black woman unless she looks like night, or almost night. i laughed at the man who didn’t like dark arses. i knew a man who hated even the idea seeing a light arse up in the air. what is that about? heck, its amazing black people like themselves at all given how everybody (our own included) put us down so much and dont hold up our beauty in all its shades and forms. mainly though, being black is great! why do i say that? because i can.

  • nelle

    i love her style

  • http://style-and-regalia.blogspot.com AsiaA

    I don’t have anything against her. I don’t own her album.

    I hear more about her being on a red carpet somewhere versus on the stage.

    Then I was shocked they had her on the BET awards… yeah she’s black, but she sings pop music.

    I say rack up as much press and swag as you can now, because you never know if your next album will sell.

  • ashley_ya_gurl

    I guess yall wanna see more white people or white looking ppl than a black woman. Be proud she is over exposed cuz most black celebrities can’t even get they foot into the type of fame Rihanna got. When she 1st came out everybody and they mama liked her. Now that she hot yall cant stand her. Its true MISERY LOVES COMPANY. If she wasnt as successful as she is yall would like her. Yall support ppl that aint going no where. We are falling as ppl big time.

  • bbb

    ri is very pretty. i feel sorry for her friends goin shoppin wid her, cause u know none of them have the money they need to shop in those stores. gd mesti

  • A Black Woman

    What are we black women supposed to do? Black men don’t want us. They want white women. It seems these black men are threatened by our strength and intelligence. It’s really ashame.

  • Vinandi

    she looks great!

  • Don’t mind me

    She is a fashion Icon. Rarely does she get it wrong and the majority of the time her visual is inspring. A stunning girl!

  • bonnie

    Why is this chick being described as an Icon? Do people even know what the word means? I’ve seen her and Zoe Kravitz and Victoria Beckham described as fashion icons. How about saying they are fashion forward or fashion plates? An Icon is someone who has been around longer than 5 minutes and has a legacy that can be looked at. People misuse this word and also misuse Diva. Just irritating to me…

  • Slapping HatersSince82

    jjj not tu burst your Rhinna flavored bubble- but, that is weave in her head and the fact that she even need it in such a short style makes me wonder…

    she does not ever dress fly to me… maybe my 26 years is far too old to understand this new age style of dress…? she just tries to hard to be different and she winds up looking overly decorated.

  • Overrated

    I got a light skin friend who look like bubbles the chimp

    I got a dark skin friend that look like bubble the chimp

  • Whateva Biatch

    @Slapping HatersSince82

    You better start slapping yourself. Stop hating on Ri-Ri jus because you not fasionable does not means Ri-Ri can craete ah new age os style. And for the weave you talking bout MAJOR of them celeb does wear it so what? it looks Great.

  • Rhi

    I’m just not feeling that hair. It doesn’t flatter her features…. Please another female artist come out!! Soon!! Oh yeah.. and be talented!!

  • Tryin’ 2 find a Screen name

    how the hell does Slapping HatersSince82 know that rihanna is wearing a weave? did you sew it in or does every black female in america has a weave cus honestly thats the vibe im getting.

    once your black and have long hair (and now even short hair) you automatically have a weave.

  • http://GLADITSNIGHT.COM GLADITSNIGHT.COM

    She looks good

  • Anonymous3 – the fire sign

    is it me or does her head look a little too small for her body in the 2nd pic?

  • Mrs. D’angelo

    Rihanna’s cool but I’m waiting on my girl Beyonce to come back and Shut shyt down!

  • lala#1

    Not trying to be negative, but I think she would have more longevity in the (music) industry if she spend some money on a vocal coach..

  • lisalisa

    She’s unnattractive.

  • YEAH MAN!!

    @ jjj I agree people hate on Rihanna for nothing and @AmericanwomenRhaterz I agree with that title because we act like it is hard to love one another. Also, I respect the fact people truly have their own opionion

  • Envy Me (That MCM Bag in Bloomingdales is calling my name)

    HER ENTOURAGE LOOKS STUPID….WHO WEARS SKINNY JEANS WITH A HALTER TUCKED IN WITH A BELT, AND GOT THE BLACK BRA STRAP SHOWING?????….GO STRAPLESS AND IM NOT EVEN GOIN START WITH THE GIRL IN THE PINK WTF?????????? RHI SINCE U R A FASHIONISTA, HOW ABOUT GIVE THEM B*TCHES A LESSON

  • Ta Ta

    what other girl with a broad nose have u ever seen the media calling pretty or being supportive of. Rihanna stop the hate. girls ALWAYS have to hate on each other and find dumb excuses, “oh she can’t sing” or “oh she is ugly”. Well don’t look at her or listen to her music. It’s not Rihanna’s fault that she looks like that. You all really need to stop hatin cuz you know Rihanna is representing some black people. CUZ WE ALL DONT LOOK THE SAME.

  • http://www.myspace.com/eastindiangurl Negrita Tan Rica

    Looks better with longer hair. It flatters her face much more and gives her a softer look.

    Her neck looks so tough that if you shot it with a bullet it would bite back. Straight linebacker neck…

  • delarocka

    well at least she is happy with who she is

    with her broad nose, short hair, beautiful eyes,

    and she is doing her thing. She is not out there trying to get knifed up, bleaching her skin, and wearing dem dam blond wigs, and horse hair to be more white.

    do you rih and be happy with yourself

  • kiki

    Too much make-up for me she should slow it down on the foundation, ur just shopping darling!

  • Lady Architect

    She looks nice on the cover and while shopping. Love that yellow dress. For some reason she has that “it” glow so I say take advantage of it Rihanna. The whole good girl gone bad theme worked out perfect for her.

  • JustMoi

    Where did she get her shoes from??? THEY ARE AWESOME!!!

  • ebGCH

    Look when your own fans say you can’t sing… its just sad.

    That’s it, nothing else needs to be said at that point.

  • IMO………..

    I lke Rihanna but she is NOT a fashion icon. To be a fashion icon you have to e around for ALOT longer than a few years!

    Anyway all the RiRi stans acting like shes been on the covers of Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harpers Bazaar etc. I barely even see her on magazine covers!

  • Marshabio

    Over-exposed…….

    No, not really. Very pretty girl, beautiful even, but no talent…Get your money baby…..

  • Iseeyou

    I think there are many over-exposed people in this industry talented or not (IMJUSTSAYING) so lets let Ri Ri get hers Bey will be back sooner than we think.

  • delarocka

    To be a fashion icon you have to e around for ALOT longer than a few years!

    _____________________________________________

    says who?

  • Slapping HatersSince82

    jjj where were you on the Nas post or the Obama satire post,since your so trying to help the Black community by convincing some of us that Rhianna is a fashion icon- some people just waist precious time on b.s.

    P.S. she is a beautiful woman-happy now?

  • delarocka

    ri ri is very trendy

    she young beautiful and cant dress her ass off

  • Slapping HatersSince82

    To the Black star revolutionary-aka-Rhinna’s saviour-why is it when Black folks express their opinion abt someone Black it has to be blown out of proportion? Why when we make comments it has to be us who are setting Black folks back? This is all in fun. Black people do have opinions and are not entitled to just covet a star all because he or she is Black? Besides being Black, we are individuals!

    You never hear white folks come at Joan Rivers for having an opinion or hear white folks telling critics they’re barrel crabs all because they have a God given opinion-lighten up

  • sassshas

    Why does her friend have those sandals wrapped around her jeans like that?? does anyone else see something wrong with that?

  • Spoony G

    >> Rhi Rhi looks like she rolls with HITTERS..

  • Jody

    Give Rhi Rhi her due, the girl can’t sing a lick but she stylish as all get out.

  • Ruby

    Please… when did she become a friggin Styke Icon? The short haired tattoo look’s been done, hasn’t it? She’s a beautiful girl though, good for her for getting by this far on those hazel eyes. Props, chica!!!

  • MissMBA

    @ ABlackWoman…Don’t get discouraged, as long as you know who you are and a black man is what you desire, then one is out there and you will find one that is worthy of you and appreciates your strength.

    @ all the others harping on black women, please do not put us all in one category. Welfare???what, please getting ready to get an executive juris doctorate…I hate on no one, if anything I congratulate women of all color, but especially women of color on their accomplishments. I think this young woman is beautiful and is growing as an artist. Just as Mary could not sing when she 1st emerged, neither could Rhianna, but she has grown and her voice is improving as she comes into her own.

    Don’t generalize an entire culture because of the few you know or what you read on an entertainment blog. If I clumped everything I have heard and seen about islanders into one category it would not be nice.

    It takes more energy to hate than to love, appreciate, and accept people for who they are and I don’t have the time or energy to spare.

  • http://hotelbarcelonas.com Jamie Holman

    i thought it was funny (-:

  • http://www.silhouetteofyourthoughts.blogspot.com Lexie Lex

    Has anyone notice that in most of the magazines she been in only talks about how beautiful she is or how hot her fashion sense is?

    What about the music?? They mention little to nothing about it…tsh tsh I don’t think thats a good thing since she’s an artist.

    She should [to me that is] be a model or something of that sort dealing with fashion b/c she’ll be really good at that.
