After her world-famous heartbreaking
divorce from Brad Pitt, it was doubtful that Jennifer Aniston would ever marry
again. But that all just changed now that Justin Theroux has popped the
question!
The “Wanderlust” costars were busy
celebrating Justin’s birthday late last week when the betrothal actually
occurred.
An insider told press, "Justin Theroux
had an amazing birthday on Friday, receiving an extraordinary gift when his
girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston, accepted his proposal of marriage."
While there’s no word on when they’ll be
getting hitched, Jen and Justin sure do seem like they’ll have an amazing
marriage. A pal noted, “They are great friends.”
It was back to work for Selena Gomez as
she was spotted on the set of "Parental Guidance" in Los Angeles, CA on Saturday
afternoon.
The 20-year-old actress donned a blue and
black striped maxi dress with curlers in her gorgeous coif before changing into
a pretty summer dress to begin filming scenes.
It was recently announced that the
brunette beauty landed a role in the film, which is based on the novel by Ric
BrowdeL: "While I'm Dead ... Feed the Dog."
Miss Gomez will star opposite Nat Wolff
in the offbeat comedy along with Austin Stowell and Dylan McDermott.
Rihanna's never one to shy away from a
good time, and earlier today (July 26) Rihanna was spotted kicking back aboard a
swanky yacht in Eze Sur Mer, France.
With a cold Corona beer in hand, the
"Rude Boy" singer showed off her svelte frame in a plunging swimsuit that
matched her punchy red pout.
Meanwhile, RiRi's ex, Chris Brown, is
trying to squash rumors that the former lovers met up while they both stayed in
Cannes over the past week.
With reports touting that the talented
twosome rekindled their flame with a kiss, Chris' camp quickly came to his
defense, telling press, "[Chris Brown] is in France to shoot a music video for
[the] Swizz Beatz album and Ludacris is in it. It's Swizz's song."
Brown's rep further rejected any
speculation, explaining, "Karrueche is there with him.They never broke up. He is
not on [Rihanna's] yacht. There is no Rihanna connection."
Clearly enjoying her time in the sun,
Rihanna was once again spotted on a beautiful yacht in the waters of Saint
Tropez, France on Saturday afternoon (July 21).
The 24-year-old singer showed off her
amazingly toned body in a tiny bikini as she welcomed basketball great Magic
Johnson aboard the lovely boat after tweeting, “Drop that anchor!!! We locked
and loaded!”
While the “Umbrella” star enjoys her
tropical vacation, she’s been sharing multiple tweets. Reports are surfacing
that it’s all to catch the attention of her ex, Chris Brown.
Doing her best to numb the still very
present pain of losing her grandma, Rihanna headed out to sea with a few friends
while cruising the Caribbean waters off the coast of Barbados on Thursday (July
12).
The "We Found Love" songstress showed off
her fit figure as she did a little tubing before hopping back aboard the water
vessel and cracking open a cold one.
Also posting a Twitter pic of herself
sipping a brew, RiRi captioned the shot with a message reading: "I had to!!!
Sorry granny."
The 24-year-old offered up another tweet
directed at her late grandmother during the course of the day, as she warmly
penned, "#grangranDOLLY I know you smiling down on me brightly, I could feel it
in the sunshine #1Love forever."
The island grieving period comes as
Rihanna wound up near the top of Forbes' just-released list of 'Highest Paid
Stars Under 30'.
Put together with earnings garnered
between May 2011 and May 2012, the Barbadian beauty raked in $53 million en
route to a third place finish - as she was beaten out only by Taylor Swift's top
spot nabbing $57 million and runner-up Justin Bieber's $55 million. Not too
shabby!
In what's a sad day for the hit singer,
Rihanna was spotted somberly exiting her Manhattan hotel on Friday afternoon
(July 6).
Clad in a blue dress, the 24-year-old was
visibly upset as she held the hand of a female friend while en route to her
grandmother's funeral in Brookly.
Earlier the same morning, RiRi took to
Twitter to post an entry with the symbol drycry accompanied by a link to an
Instagram pic.
The page featured a yellow spiral
notebook with a little girl's handwriting having penned a tear-jerking entry
reading: "IMA TRY TO BE A BIG GIRL NOW.... #DearDolly".
Rihanna's always been a family girl, so
when Rihanna's grandmother Clara Brathwait passed away over the weekend, she was
devastated.
July 5, the |Take a Bow" songstress paid
a visit to a funeral home in New York City to say goodbye to her beloved
grandma, holding one hand over her heart as she accompanied her
family.
June 30 Ri-Ri tweeted, "Goodbye grangran
get your beauty rest until I see you,” along with multiple photos.
And it sounds like Rihanna is having a
tough time career-wise as well- she filed a lawsuit yesterday against her former
accountants, claiming they lost her tens of millions of dollars over the past
few years.
Showing off their sexy, patriotic side,
many of our favorite stars have donned the American Flag on their swimwear over
the years.
And in honor of America’s birthday (July
4th), we’re bringing you some super-sexy shots of celebrities wearing their
American pride on their sleeve, or rather, swimsuits and high-end
outfits.
Big names like Rihanna, Rachel Bilson,
Jessica Simpson and Kate Upton have all made fashion statements with the Star
Spangled Banner, drawing salutes from men all over the world.
Already in the patriotic spirit this year
are “Smash” stars Megan Hilty and Katharine McPhee, who attended patriotic
events in Washington DC and New York City respectively .
After a painful battle with cancer,
Rihanna’s grandmother “Gran Gran Dolly” has died.
The devastated 24-year-old singer
recently put her European trip on hold to spend time with her family and visit
with Clara 'Dolly' Braithwaite in the hospital. She broke the news from Barbados
through her Twitter account late Saturday evening (June 30).
The “Umbrella” performer shared numerous
pictures of her with her grandmother and tweeted, “grangranDolly get your beauty
rest until I see you..." adding, "grangranDolly that is all."
She received condolences from her fans
and even her ex Chris Brown’s mother who tweeted, “Angel May God Be With You And
Your Family In Your Time Of Sorrow. Love You Angel." The note prompted Rihanna
to reply, "mombreezy thank you! Love u mama."
It seems the pair is still close, with
the Barbadian beauty quickly replying: "Thank you! Love u mama."
Heading off for some career duties,
Rihanna was spotted leaving her luxury hotel in London, England today (June
26).
Sporting an all-denim ensemble topped off
with a black hat, the “Umbrella” babe looked like she meant business as she
briskly walked past the paparazzi.
Perhaps the reason for her apprehension
was the fact that one of her bodyguards got into a scuffle with a shutterbug in
London on Sunday night (June 24).
It all went down outside the Whiskey Mist
nightclub when one of Ri-Ri’s behemoths cracked a photog in the face when he
refused to move away from Rihanna’s ride.
The bodyguard knocked the paparazzo out
with one punch, and it’s unclear how long it took for him to get up
again.
Making her way to three different
studios, Rihanna was one busy lady on Wednesday night (June 20) in London,
England.
The 24-year-old singer stopped at the
various recording sessions with her large crew as she donned a a pair of
bandana-inspired shorts with a grey tee and sneakers, later tweeting a
self-portrait with the caption “Where have you been?”
As previously reportedby GossipCenter,
Miss Rihanna is set to make her big debut in the new animated film “Happy Smekday!”
The Barbadian beauty will debut her
voice-over work alongside Jim Parsons as a teen forced to escape a sticky
situation with a friendly alien.
After her breakthrough success with
“Battleship,” Rihanna is heading back to the big screen.
This time she’ll make her animated debut
in the upcoming movie “Happy Smekday!”
Based on the 2007 children’s book “The
True Meaning of Smekday,” the Barbadian beauty with star alongside Jim Parsons
as a teen forced to escape a sticky situation with a friendly alien.
Slated to release in 2014, the animated
film will be the “Umbrella” singer’s first voice-over role.
Get ready for a garden party of the
floral variety, because botanical-garland headbands are having a moment. A few
months back we saw Katy Perry and Vanessa Hudgens donning boho-style
head-toppers at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Annual Festival, and most
recently, stars like Keira Knightley, Kirsten Dunst, and Ashlee Simpson have
been spotted in flowery wreath hair accessories. Wear them paired with your hair
down in flowing waves, or tossed back casually in a braided updo. And now that
Summer is here, expect to have even more occasions for which to wear them, from
outdoor barbecues to weddings by the water.
Spotted out and about in the big town,
Rihanna headed to dinner with a friend at Da Silvano restaurant in New York City
this evening (June 13).
The 24-year-old singer looked hip in an
all-red ensemble that she paired with funky tennis shoes and a black bag while
keeping her head down to avoid the awaiting shutterbugs.
In personal news, it seems as if the
Barbadian beauty's abusive ex-boyfriend Chris Brown is desperate to get her
back.
According to a report put out by the New
York Post, the 23-year-old performer was at the same club as Miss Rihanna
earlier this week and he was apparently admiring her from across the
room.
In spite of the tension, the two never
actually made contact throughout the evening.
Kicking off her week with a wild evening
out, Rihanna was spotted attending a party in New York City last night (June
11).
The "Russian Roulette" songstress hit up
Avenue in Manhattan in a beautiful white summer dress teamed with a pair of
Converse All Stars.
As for the reports that her new Armani ad
features a body double named Jahnassa Aicken, Ri-Ri is said to be
fuming.
Nonetheless, Rihanna's massive Times
Square billboard for her new scent Rebelle looks amazing, and it's 100%
her.
Although several eyebrows were raised
when Rihanna decided to collaborate with Chris Brown on her suggestive single
"Birthday Cake", the singer claims she was surprised by the backlash surrounding
the song.
During an interview with Esquire UK, the
"Talk That Talk" singer defended her decision to work with Brown, saying, "It
never occurred to me how this was going to be a problem. I thought people were
gonna be surprised that we finally did a record together, but I didn't see how
people could think it was a bad thing, you know? In my mind, it was just music .
. . I could never see anything wrong with making music."
When asked to clarify rumors that she and
Brown have secretly been hooking three years after he violently assaulted her,
Rihanna said, "[I worked with Brown] in a completely professional environment. I
mean, if I went back to him [as a girlfriend], then that's a whole different
discussion."
The Barbados born singer then quipped,
"If I ever do, then that's something that y'all have to talk to me about when --
if -- that ever happens. Until then, look at it for what it is."
As for the sexually-based lyrics in
"Birthday Cake", RiRi denies it has anything to do with their current
relationship. "That was the tone before [he] was ever on the record," the
songstress snaps. "You think it was going to be about hopscotch or jump
rope?"
Before wrapping up the interview, Rihanna
continued her irritated venting by adding, "There’s a lot of sh-- y’all can't
get over. Y ' all holding your breath on a lot of stuff that doesn't matter.
When you realize who you live for, and who's important to please, a lot of
people will actually start living. I am never going to get caught up in that.
I'm gonna look back on my life and say that I enjoyed it — and I lived it for
me."
Leather dresses have taken the fashion
world by storm this spring, and, as a result, nearly every female celeb has been
spotted wearing one in recent weeks. A standout in the sea of hide-enhanced
looks was this sleeveless, fire-engine red Monique Lhuillier frock that Emma
Stone donned for a recent appearance on "The Tonight Show." The 23-year-old
actress -- who's been busy promoting "The Amazing Spider-Man" -- perfectly
paired her hot sheath with equally astounding Christian Louboutin cap-toe heels
and matching lipstick.
Making the most of her evening, Rihanna
was spotted hitting up the Grey Stone Manor Night Club in West Hollywood last
night (June 3).
The "Take a Bow" songstress looked snazzy
with bright yellow fingernails as she arrived at the hotspot after spending time
at a friend's apartment.
Earlier in the evening, Ri-Ri opted for a
delicious dinner out at the swanky Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica,
sporting a pink hat and teddy bear-themed ensemble.
Rihanna recently returned to Los Angeles
from New York City, where she spent some quality time with her cancer-stricken
grandmother Clara "Dolly" Brathwaite.
During their visit, Rihanna tweeted a
picture along with the caption, "Came to NY, just for this moment right
here!"
This week, the "Russian Roulette" singer
will begin her big transition to London, England where she’ll live for a few
months over the summer.
With her new movie "Bel Ami" set to hit
theaters on June 9th, Rihanna garnered herself a little added exposure by
covering the July 2012 issue of British Esquire magazine.
The 32-year-old actress sizzles in Agent
Provocateur for the Matt Irwin shot front page while dishing about everything
from her girl crush to where she'd like to be in five years.
On making headlines:
"The attention is something I've learned
to ignore. This is what I do. I live my life and they document it. A lot of
things I don't care for people to know, but it just is. That's what it’s
become."
On making a song with ex Chris
Brown:
"I thought people were gonna be surprised
that we finally did a record together, but I didn't see how people could think
it was a bad thing, you know? In my mind, it was just music."
On being determined to settle down in
five years:
"'Hopefully I'll have a man by then. I've
gotta start there, right? But how far I go [with my career] is God's plan. I'm
just following through my destiny. I don't think it ever ends. It just
evolves."
News from the Internet.Thank you for your

Kicking off their European tour run in
the UK, Jay-Z and Kanye West unwound following a concert in London on Saturday
night (May 19) by throwing a 'Watch The Throne' tour London show after party at
DSTRKT.
As for the star-laden after party, Kanye
turned up to DSTRKT with his black dress clad E! reality star girlfriend, Kim
Kardashian, on his arm.
Enjoying being able to spend time with
her man on the road, Kim tweeted a pic of two plates of gourmet food with shiny
gold and silver utensils atop to go with a message reading, "Meal with my baby
on the throne before the show!"
With Kim's brother Rob also turning up
with his new lady, Rita Ora, other star power int he house at DSTRKT included
Jay's Coldplay rocker pal Chris Martin, who was joined by his actress wife
Gwyneth Paltrow and designer friend Stella McCartney.
Topping off the list of 'Watch the Throne
partygoers was the always-gorgeous Rihanna, who certainly sounds as if she had
an eventful evening - though she's having trouble remembering it.
Jet setting out of La La land on a trip
to Lonodn, Rihanna was seen catching a flight out of LAX Airport in Los Angeles,
CA on Friday.
Once arriving, the Barbadian beauty made
a stop at one of her favorite restaurants in the area that gives her a little
taste of her hometown.
In career news, we know the Grammy
award-winning singer can handle the music business, but it sounds as if acting
came as more of a "challenge".
In a recent interview with MTV News,
Rihanna dished about her acting debut in "Battleship", saying, “For me, acting
was a whole different world. We make mini-movies with music videos, but there's
always a song track that's playing, you don't have to speak, so [with acting]
you have to tell that emotion with the tone of your voice, and I have an accent,
so I had to change it to a bit of an American accent for this movie, so that was
different."
Now that the 24 year-old has some
experience in the artistic medium, will she return for another go around?
"There's nothing you can have under your belt with acting, not in my opinion,
because I'm not a natural. This isn't my first so I don't know. I think it's
always going to be a challenge for me, but I like that."
If you want to catch Rihanna in her
acting debut, "Battleship" is currently in theaters nationwide!
Showing off his romantic side, Chris
Brown just dropped the steamy video for his latest song "Sweet Love."
Delivering some mouth-watering moves for
the ladies, the 23-year-old R&B artist goes sans shirt for much of the
clip.
Really amping of the sexiness, the spot
features several ladies dressed only in sheets any lying in bed as Brown
serenades them.
Later in the video Chris can be seen
getting cozy with his onscreen interest, even making his way under the covers
with one lucky lady.
British pop star Cheryl Cole is backing Chris Brown and
urging fans to forgive him for assaulting Rihanna three years ago.
Convinced Brown has made positive changes in his life
since assaulting Rihanna in February of 2009, the "Call My Name" singer and
former "X-Factor" judge sat down for an interview with Alex James on "In:Demand
With Alex" to encourage others to forgive and forget.
"I think it's really kind of Rihanna [to forgive
Brown]," the 28-year-old explained, "She's come out and publicly forgiven him,
really."
Although Rihanna recently stopped following Brown on
Twitter, sources told US Weekly in January that the pair have been seeing each
other the past year, and in February they released two new songs they recorded
together.
"I think it's about time we all [forgave Brown], if I'm
completely honest, if you want my opinion," Cole added, "I think it's time we
all moved on. That guy is talented as hell."
Over the weekend Chris thanked Cheryl by sending her a
message on Twitter saying, "thanks for the support and believing in me as an
artist!"
As for RiRi, she spoke out against the criticism she's
getting for talking to Brown again telling ELLE in May, "I respect what other
people have to say. The bottom line is that everyone thinks
differently".
The 24-year-old "You Da One" singer admitted, "It's very
hard for me to accept, but I get it, people end up wasting their time on the
blogs or whatever, ranting away, and that's all right. I don't hate them for
it."
Joining in on one of the biggest acts
this year, Rihanna made her way on stage for a surprise performance with Kanye
West and Jay-Z for their "Watch the Throne" tour in London.
The Barbadian beauty took to the London
O2 Arena on Sunday night (May 20) wearing a cropped black top, skinny jeans and
a beanie to perform "All Of The Lights" with Kanye as well as joining in on
Jay-Z's hit "Run This Town."
After leaving the arena, the 24-year-old
took to her Twitter page to let her 19 million-plus followers in on her exciting
night tweeting, "Rihanna NAVi made historih tonight as the first person to Watch
The Throne AND join it!!! No one is allowed on that stage! Thank u
guys."
Universal and Hasbro Entertainment's
big-budget Battleship barely left port in its North American launch, grossing a
dismal $25.3 million.
That's well below the anticipated $35
million to $40 million that Universal and director Peter Berg were hoping for.
Battleship, designed to put the studio squarely in the tentpole game, cost at
least $209 million to produce, excluding a pricey marketing spend.
Battleship's international gross of
$226.8 million provides some cushion, but it needed a strong domestic
performance to end up in the black. A $25.3 million opening means the movie
might not clear $70 million or $80 million over the long haul domestically,
resulting in a notable loss for Universal and sparking plenty of Monday-morning
quarterbacking within the studio about what went wrong.
There's already speculation that
Battleship, starring Taylor Kitsch, Rihanna, Brooklyn Decker and Liam Neeson,
will follow the same course as Disney's John Carter, which debuted to $30.2
million in March and topped out at $71.8 million domestically. Overseas, John
Carter, also starring Kitsch, earned $200.6 million. The pic resulted in a $200
million write-down for Disney.
Kicking off the week with some Big Apple
fun, Rihanna was spotted out and about in New York City last night (May
14).
The "Take A Bow" songstress left her
luxury hotel and headed off to a party, stopping to buy a rose along the
way.
Earlier in the evening, Ri-Ri gave a
fabulous live performance at the Robin Hood Foundation Benefit at the Jacob K
Javits Convention Center.
Despite her recent heath scare, Rihanna
sounded fabulous as she sang hits like “Only Girl (In the World), "Run This
Town" and "Live Your Life."
Kristen Stewart's had quite the banner
year thus far, and now Kristen Stewart can add Best-Dressed Woman to her list of
accolades as bestowed upon her by Glamour UK.
According to the publication, the
"Twilight" star has earned the recognition due to her serious style
transformation from the years before.
They write, "Whether she's working
bodycon Monique Lhuillier on the red carpet, or dressing down in jeans and a
T-shirt, Kristen is always effortlessly on-trend. Her evolution from awkward
teen to style queen has made the Twilight star a fashion icon every girl can
relate to."

Just when we thought the pink (or blue or
green) hair trend might be dying down—the look first started gaining traction
over two years ago after Proenza Schouler's Spring 2010 show, after all—Lady
Gaga debuted pastel-streaked hair last week. Then, today in Versailles,
hairstylist Sam McKnight sent the Chanel Cruise 2013 models out onto the runway
in pastel-colored pageboy crops, solidifying the fact that the trend still has
legs.
Although it's not visibly apparent from
the front, McKnight actually created what he called a "bob-top": "wigs dyed grey
pastel then sliced in half to reveal low pony with massive bow," he explained on
Twitter, to go with the show’s punk Marie Antoinette theme. Makeup artist Peter
Phillips painted tiny interlocking-C logos on the models' faces, meanwhile, a
tribute to Marie Antoinette’s signature beauty mark.
Observing the holiday that gives thanks
to the women who raised us, Rihanna treated her mom, Monica Braithwaite, to a
delectable Mother's Day dinner on the town in New York City on Sunday evening
(May 13).
Fresh off of a trip to the tattoo parlor,
the 24-year-old donned a navy and white tummy-revealing ensemble while picking
up a pretty bouquet of pink flowers to dote unto her mother during the course of
their time together.
Earlier in the day, Rihanna was her usual
busy self on Twitter while sending out a string of well-wishing messages to the
moms, single dads and those who are without their moms.
Shooting out the more general words to
follow, RiRi exclaimed, "Happy mother's day to all superwomen out thurr! Every
day is your day. And a happy mother's day to all the dads doin it .
She then capped of the warm sentiments
with, "Sending out special love to those who lost their mothers!
Meanwhile, Rihanna previously spoke with
ELLE about her retired accountant mom's reliable nature, saying, “I still don’t
know how she did it. She always protected us—she would never let us know when we
had problems, even financially. I still got to go and get a perm every four
weeks."
Rihanna shared sexy never-before-seen
snapshots of herself getting ready for her animalistic music video, "Where Have
You Been," on Facebook this weekend. RiRi's obviously not shy about showing off
her hot bod! Plus, on Sunday Kim Kardashian tweeted an edgy pic from her Vogue
Italia shoot, and Kylie and Kendall Jenner sported some rather controversial
accessories on the red carpet Saturday night.
