Rihanna performed on the Today Show this morning looking fierce as always. Not loving the hat, though. I'm all for hats, don't get me wrong, but it didn't work it with the outfit, in my opinion.

Here's a video of her performing Umbrella, or at least trying to. There was something wrong with her mic. Or she forgot the lyrics. She also sang Don't Stop The Music and Take A Bow, but Madonna did it better.

I want Gucci to honor me. I'm totally jealous. This past weekend Gucci held a dinner in honor of Rihanna. For what, I don't know. Still jealous. Free food and free gucci. Ugh.

Lookie who else was there:

Becki Newton!!!

and

Rashida Jones

Maroon 5 are collaborating with Rihanna for their new single If I never See Your Face Again. It's not wone of my favorite songs on their album, but the collabo with Rihanna really works.

Check out the entire song below:

Molly was right! It is Rihanna. She attended the Chanel fall-winter 2008 ready to wear collection show in Paris last week.

Just a note for anyone who wants to buy me a birthday present. So what if it isn't until July, better early than late, right?

Rihanna attended the Sonia Rykiel show in Paris this week for Fashion Week. I don't care how hideous unique her outfit is, bitch is fierce. And the hair is starting to grow on me.

Here's Rihanna's new milk ad. I like it. Then again, I like pretty much anything Rihanna does, so I'm biased.

The 50th Annual Grammy Award nominees were announced this morning and lookie who was nominated:

Irreplaceable
Beyoncé
Beyoncé Knowles, S. Smith & Stargate, producers; Jim Caruana, Jason Goldstein &
Geoff Rice, engineers/mixers
Track from: B'Day

The Pretender
Foo Fighters
Gil Norton, producer; Adrian Bushby & Rich Costey, engineers/mixers

Umbrella
Rihanna Featuring Jay-Z
Kuk Harrell & C. "Tricky" Stewart, producers; Kuk Harrell & Manny Marroquin,
engineers/mixers
Track from: Good Girl Gone Bad

What Goes Around…Comes Around
Justin Timberlake
Nate (Danja) Hills, Timbaland & Justin Timberlake, producers; Jimmy Douglass &
Timbaland, engineers/mixers

Rehab
Amy Winehouse
Mark Ronson, producer; Tom Elmhirst, engineer/mixer
Track from: Back To Black

Please, let Amy Winehouse win it. Why? Because she had the best song. I loved the Foo Fighters and wouldn't mind if they won. As long as Beyonce and that horrible Irreplaceable song doesn't win, I don't care who takes home the award. That song was horrible. My bet is Rihanna for the win, though.

Rihanna's new single from her CD Good Girl Gone Bad is Breakin' Dishes. It seems like a cool song to drive and dance to, but the "ow's" and "am's" are going to get on my nerves like whoa. Eh, eh, eh.

Robin Thicke and Rihanna got together to pose for a GQ.COM shoot. I'm loving these two together. If he weren't already married to the unbelievably gorgeous Paula Patton, I'd say they should totally get to banging. That's alright, I'd settle for a duet. Get on that, Ri-Ri.

Now this is what I'm talking about. Oh, Rihanna, how I love you. It's fun, it's hip, it's young and it's out there. And best of all, it's not boring.

P.S. - I hate it when people bend over to blow a kiss at the camera. So corny.

Rihanna says that she will never enter rehab because she doesn't feel that she'll ever have a problem with alcohol or drugs.

"I refuse to crack under pressure - in fact I thrive on it. So when I read about Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse who have suffered under it, it's sad.

"It is easy to criticise them but it happens. You just have to stay focused and keep your feet on the ground.

"Staying down to earth in this industry in general is no easy, but I am strong and when I feel lost or depressed on the road, I call my best friend Melissa. When I see people turning to drugs and alcohol, then that's when I call Melissa. She helps me."

Awe, I love Rihanna and she seems to have a good head on her shoulders, so I doubt she'll ever need to go into rehab. Then again, you should never say never...
