Rihanna Adds Sexy Twist To Her Outfit With Pairing Of White Minidress & Thigh-High Leather Stockings

She certainly knows how to court attention when it comes to her outfit choices.
So when it came to choosing an ensemble to celebrate her brother's birthday in New York, Rihanna decided to go out by accessorising her white minidress and sky-high black heels with a pair of leather stockings.
The stockings went over the heel of Rihanna's shoes, and up to her thigh - highlighting her slim legs in the process.

Rihanna finished off her look with huge gold hoop earrings and necklaces, covering up in a quilted navy jacket in the chilly Manhattan temperatures.
The 25-year-old singer wore her raven hair slicked down, and added berry red lipstick to finish off her look. 
Her hair was similar to the 'doobie wrap' look Rihanna sported to the recent American Music Awards - although she decided to leave the studded bobby pins at home for the evening out.

Addressing the backlash over the hairstyle, Rihanna's stylist Ursula Stephen told Elle.com: 'It was actually Rihanna's idea. She had her mind made up! 
'Honestly, I was a little hesitant but I knew she could pull it off, so I was all for it.'
Rihanna's outing came after it was revealed that singer has donated over $100,000 (£61,000) to help the Philippine victims of Typhoon Haiyan.

Beyonce Fails To Impress Zahi Hawass (aka Egypt's Indiana Jones) & He Claims He banned Her From Visiting The Pyramids After her "stupid and rude" Behaviour

She is adored by her millions of fans and has even earned the nickname Queen B.
But Beyonce failed to impress the man known as Egypt's Indiana Jones when she visited the country in 2009.
Zahi Hawass, Egypt's former head of antiquities, claims he banned the singer from visiting the Pyramids after her ‘stupid and rude’ behaviour.

The star visited Egypt back in 2009 as part of her I Am... Tour, where she toured the pyramids with Hawass.
But according to the Huffington Post, the controversial archaeologist bad-mouthed the star to local reporters back then, allegedly calling her a 'stupid person' who 'doesn't understand a thing'.
Now, in a new interview, Hawass, 66, claims the Love On Top singer arrived late for her tour of the ancient site.

'Most people I take on tours are very nice and we become friends. But this lady...,' the former minister of state antiquities told The Independent.
'She said she would come at 3pm but she came late. I said "You have to say I'm sorry I'm late". But she didn't open her mouth,' said Hawass, who is described as the 'gatekeeper' of the pyramids.
The last straw came when Beyonce's photographer allegedly almost hit Hawass.
'I brought a photographer and she also had a photographer and a guard. When my photographer started to shoot, he said "No, Stop! I am the one who says yes or no, not you!"
'I said: "In that case since you almost hit my photographer and you are not polite - out! I am not giving you the privilege of having you on my tour!" I said Beyoncé was stupid and I left.'

However, Beyonce's rep told E! News the story was a 'lie'.
'This never happened,' said the rep. 'The last time she was in Egypt was on tour in 2009. Nothing like this happened. Lies and more lies.'
Hawass is a controversial figure who has been criticised for his love of the spotlight.
During the interview, he boasted about his fame.
'People attack me because I am famous. When I took President Obama to Giza, the camel driver recognised me and he asked "But who is the friend of Hawass?" When I gave a lecture at your Dome of the Millennium 1,700 came to hear me. Bill Clinton got 700.'
Famous man: Hawass said the camel driver recognised him and not Obama during the President's trip to Egypt in 2009

Hawass is currently under investigation from the US Justice Department for allegedly accepting a $200,000-a-year pay packet from National Geographic to allow the magazine access to the Pyramids and other sites.
He is also branching out into fashion.
According to Vanity Fair, he has launched a clothing line that focuses on khakis, leather jackets and denim shirts, with profits said to be going to the Children’s Cancer Hospital in Cairo.

Justin Bieber Heats Up Female Fans As He Goes Shirtless For Steamy Show In Brisbane...Seriously Though, Is He Not Hot In Those Leather Trousers?

He spent all day at the beach earlier on Wednesday, chatting to pretty bikini-clad girls and working on his tan.
And Justin Bieber was eager to show off his newly acquired bronzed body as he took to the stage in Brisbane, Australia on Wednesday night.
The 19-year-old had his female fans in a frenzy as he took to the stage shirtless to perform an array of his hit songs.

The pop star, who has recently buffed up, has been posting several snaps of his muscular body on his Instagram of late, and once again he whipped off his shirt for the performance.
However, he surely must have been feeling the heat, for he donned a pair of very heavy baggy leather trousers for the show
As always, the pop star's signature drop-crotch bottoms came in danger of falling completely off his slim torso, exposing his black underwear in the process.

Justin teamed the look with a pair of matching fingerless gloves and some black high top sneakers.
During the show, he executed some raunchy dance moves with his female back-up dancers and was seen grabbing his crotch several times.
Just hours before, the singer was seen taking to the waves at Wategos Beach in Byron Bay.
He and his crew headed to the celeb-friendly seaside town on Wednesday morning after the star performed in the first of his Aussie Believe concerts the night before.

The group headed south from their hotel in Surfers Paradise and took the 45 minute drive straight to the beach.
Justin stripped off for his first session learning to surf with an instructor, but sadly he was a bit of a novice and didn't manage to stand up for long.
Nevertheless, he and his instructors high-fived his achievement.
After his surfing attempt, the pop star then headed to the beach to pose and relax.

The single star was also spotted chatting to a couple of bikini-clad girls as he reclined on the sand surrounded by his entourage.
But it wasn't too long before he slipped back into his half-body wetsuit and hit the waves for the second time.
This time he was accompanied in the water by a young bikini-clad babe, whom he reportedly stayed in the company of for just over an hour.

Justin had a busy day on Wednesday.
In the early hours of the morning he was seen doing graffiti on a wall after his first performance in Queensland's capital. 
The perpetual pop brat was seen spray painting a PacMan ghost-style pink cartoon complete with black teeth and a single black eye for his throw up.

The star was spotted with his entourage, who were also spray painting, in an outdoor area of his hotel at a wall near a basketball court.
It is unknown whether the area was a designated graffiti zone or Justin and his gang were illegally vandalising the property. 
When contacted by the MailOnline, Justin's publicists declined to comment.

According to a report in the Brisbane Times back in April, new laws, which were set to be passed this year, ask for a maximum penalty of up to seven years jail for graffiti vandals, making the state's punishment the toughest in Australia.
A couple of hours ahead of his spray painting expedition on Wednesday morning, Justin had performed his first Believe concert in Brisbane, 100km away.
He had reportedly arrived back at his hotel about 20 minutes earlier and immediately unpacked his spray paints.

Wearing a hoodie with 'The Future' written on the back, Justin is said to have spent 30 minutes on his creation.
This is not the first time Justin has got handy with the spray can.
He has been seen leaving his mark in several destinations around the world, most recently in South American countries, Brazil and Colombia.
At the end of October, he was spotted spray painting a wall with the words 'Free Breezy' - referring to bad boy rapper Chris Brown's nickname - in Bogota, where street art is a legal activity.

But during the next stop on his graffiti tour, Bieber found himself on the wrong side of the law when he once again tried the act out in Brazil.
The pop star was charged with illegally scrawling graffiti on the wall of a £23 million hotel in Rio de Janiero.
As well as childish drawings of faces and baseball caps, the teen star scribbled phrases such as 'Bielibers 4 life' and 'respect privacy' on the side of the property in upmarket district of Sao Conrado.
A police spokesman described the case as a misdemeanor which would be forwarded to a small claims court where the Canadian pop star now faces a fine.

Rita Ora flashes her knickers as she attends her 70's themed birthday party in a revealing red gown

She kicked off her birthday celebrations by posting a sassy shot on Instagram – and it was an equally upfront Rita Ora who attended her 70s themed party on Tuesday evening. 
The hit-maker turned 23 on November 26 and she was keen to finish her big day in style with a star-studded party at central London night club The Box. 
With a retro theme and a guest list that included Kelly Brook, rapper Eve and current beau Calvin Harris it was never going to be a low-key affair – and so it proved when Rita arrived in a plunging cherry red ensemble. 
But while the outfit turned heads, it did so for all the wrong reasons as she inadvertently flashed her white nickers after climbing out of her cab.

Indeed, the singer was quite a sight as she exited the black cab with stylist pal Kyle De'Volle, her outfit’s generous hood loosely hanging over her bouffant hair.
 
Its deep neckline afforded waiting photographers a view of her ample cleavage, while the large thigh-length slash gave her the opportunity to show off her toned legs. 
Flanked by security guards, Rita quickly sashayed across the pavement in one of her birthday presents – the stylish Christian Louboutin heels she’d proudly showed off on Instagram earlier that day.

Justin Timberlake's Cringeworthy Impersonation Of Rihanna's Mother's Bajan Accent During His AMA Acceptance Speech Raises Eyebrows

Justin Timberlake raised eyebrows at the American Music Awards on Sunday night, when he did a somewhat cringe-making impression of Rihanna's mother. 
The 32-year-old singer attempted a Bajan accent as he collected his award for Favorite Male Artist (Soul/R&B) at the ceremony, paying tribute to Monica Braithwaite Fenty's comments about her daughter as she presented her with the Icon Award earlier in the evening. 
Beginning his comment, Justin said: 'Can we talk about cute Rihanna's mom is?'

Returning to his normal accent, Justin then added: 'I am too. Rihanna, I love you. Congratulations on that award, you totally deserve it.'
But Justin's decision to attempt the accent divided opinions among viewers on Twitter. 
One clearly unimpressed viewer wrote: 'Justin Timberlake just shaded Rihanna's mom, that was out of place, unless he knew her personally which clearly he didn't.'
While another added: 'Justin Timberlake is not funny, he hella rude for trying to mock Rihanna's mom lol.'
However, others praised Justin for his attempt at humour, with one writing: 'Justin Timberlake decided to talk about how cute Rihanna's mom is and congratulate her for award aw how can you not love him.'
And another wrote: 'Lol Justin timberlake made me laugh when he was mocking Rihanna's mom accent.'
Earlier in the evening, Monica struggled to control her emotions as she presented her daughter with the Icon Award, telling her: 'Rihanna, I'm so proud of you tonight.'
Monica continued: 'I know the journey in your career has not always been an easy one, but tonight I applaud you and admire you for being so strong and so positive and so humble and so focused.

'It's amazing how you always manage to take good from all your experiences. I'm so blessed to be a part of this historic moment. 
'I just want to say how proud I am to present to you the first-ever AMA Icon Award.' 
And it wasn't just her mother who found the moment moving.
Rihanna opened up as she told her: 'Just about 20 years ago is when I really started making your life a living hell - my annoying little husky man voice, you call it.
'You keep me driven, you keep this special.'

Lady Gaga takes inspiration from Britney Spears as she wears a nude, bejwewelled bodysuit after the AMAs

She's known for pushing the boundaries when it comes to her outfit choices.
But Lady Gaga appears to be running out of ideas on how to hit headlines with her ensembles, and instead took inspiration from another pop princess as she headed out after the American Music Awards on Sunday night.
Gaga appeared to have taken some tips from Britney Spears' Toxic video as she sported a revealing, nude, bejewelled bodysuit to continue her celebrations after the ceremony at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.

While Gaga's outfit was slightly revealing, it is a far cry from her usual eccentric ensembles. 
However, the 27-year-old did flash a bit of flesh by going bra-less in the outfit, opting for just a tiny thong to preserve her modesty as she snarled at the cameras while heading into the nightspot. 
Clearly a fan of the bling for her evening out, Gaga teamed her all-in-one with a pair of silver sparkly stilettos, and two diamonds stuck on her forehead.

J-Lo pays tribute to Celia Cruz at AMAs

Jennifer Lopez has stolen the show at the American Music Awards with a sexy tribute to Latin music legend Celia Cruz.



The Puerto Rican-born singer performed a medley of the late diva's songs at the annual award show which was held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles overnight.
J-Lo's high energy performance was notable for the singer's numerous costume changes and highly choreographed dance routine that saw her flipped through the air and triumphantly elevated by a male dancer.

The actress turned singer sung in Spanish while a number of backup dancers gyrated to the music made famous by the Cuban salsa legend Cruz, who died ten years ago at the age of 77.
The performance received a standing ovation from the star-studded crowd with another singer turned actor, Justin Timberlake, filmed applauding exuberantly.
Ahead of the tribute Lopez said she "felt very honoured and a little scared" before adding "I don't think there is anything better for this year's AMA."

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon nix 'separate lives' rumours by posting a romantic photo

Following speculation over why they had not been photographed together for a long time, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon sent a not-so-subtle message on Twitter.
The 33-year-old rapper posted a romantic photo of himself in a tight clinch with his 42-year-old wife late on Wednesday night.
With his arms wrapped tightly around her waist as Carey is draped around his neck, Cannon captioned the telling black and white photo, '#WCW,' which stands for 'Woman Crush Wednesday.'

The blunt message from the couple who have been married for five-and-a-half years, came after speculation by RadarOnline.com that the Me Sexy singer was putting his career over his wife.
Mariah did not attend the 2013 TeenNick Halo Awards on Sunday with her spouse, and Radar claims that their once-hot love affair has turned into a long distance relationship, with 107 days elapsed since the couple were last photographed together.
Carey admitted to the strain during a recent interview with Hot 97 in NYC, saying that the couple’s first year of marriage in 2008, 'was the easiest... And then (in 2009) he started doing America’s Got Talent so he just works constantly.'
Mother and daughter: Nick also posted a photo of Mariah and Monroe, again tagging it 'Women Crush Wednesday'

The show is based in LA - where Nick spends most of his time - but Glitter star Carey has been increasingly spending her time in New York City.
'I like to work at home in my little studio,' she explained. 'The house in L.A... I mean, he loves L.A.'
Where ever they are physically located, home is always where the heart is, and Cannon proved his heart is with his wife and children, two-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe.
Showing that there is room for two women in his life, the proud father posted a photo of Mariah holding Monroe on his Twitter, again with the caption: '#WCW.'

Affectionately nicknamed, 'Dem babies,' the fraternal twins were born in April 2011 on the musical couple's third wedding anniversary.
Last May, the romantic pair celebrated both the children's second birthdays, and their fifth wedding anniversary by shutting down Disneyland to renew their vows in a lavish fairytale-themed ceremony in front of the Magic Kingdom.
The Touch My Body singer was transformed into a princess for her trip to the say 'I do' yet again, before arriving in a pumpkin-shaped horse drawn carriage for her waiting prince.

Carey recently revealed that she didn't feel like royalty during her time as a judge on American Idol, however, admitting that she 'hated' her job on the Fox show.
'I thought it was going to be a 3-person panel... but it wasn't that. It was like going to work every day in Hell with Satan,' she told interview on Hot 97.
'Satan' was her nod to fellow judge Nicki Minaj, with whom she had a high-profile running spat during their time on the talent show.

Chelsea manager Mourinho and Lampard Praise Mikel Obi

Mikel Obi

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho and his midfield star Frank Lampard praised Chelsea’s performance at West Ham on Saturday evening and paid tribute to the exceptional defensive work of Mikel Obi.
Mourinho was full of praise for Lampard and Oscar following the 3-0 London derby win at West Ham but tied Lampard’s performance to the quality cover provided by the Nigerian who now enjoys a commanding role with his national team.
Lampard scored twice against his former club as Chelsea claimed a second away win in the Premier League this term, with Oscar also on target at Upton Park.
The 35-year-old England midfielder converted a penalty and a trademark strike from the edge of the area to end a 10-match scoreless run in the Premier League and take his tally to five goals in his last five league games against the club he left in the summer of 2001.
“He played very well,” Mourinho said.
“We gave him the protection of Mikel to let him go forward a bit more. After that Lamps felt a bit more freedom to go and to support and to arrive in shooting areas.”
The England midfielder, like Mourinho, acknowledged the role of Mikel in his performance and also had kind words for the Nigerian.
He told Chelsea Tv, “It was enjoyable, because from the first minute we were on it. We haven’t done it well enough away from home this season and having lost some silly points in the last two games we were very up for it. It was a very complete performance. We caused them loads of problems.
“Obi in there is a great guarantee behind you. It certainly gives me a few more opportunities to get forward.”
Mourinho then revealed he hopes to help Lampard to a successful conclusion to his career.
“I was his manager in the best period of his career and now I come back with him to enjoy the last period of his career,” said Mourinho, for whom Lampard was a mainstay in the side during his first spell as boss from June 2004 to September 2007.
“When he has this relationship with the manager, I think he feels even more comfortable to enjoy himself. He’s in a moment where he has nothing to prove – to you, to the fans, to me, to himself. He has nothing to prove. He has just to enjoy the last years of his career, try to play the maximum he can, try to score because scoring was always something that was part of his DNA as a player, and enjoy life.”
Mourinho would not be drawn on how long he expects Lampard, 36 next June, to continue, but believes Oscar has a long and bright future.
