Rihanna And Chris Brown Legally Joined (In Lawsuit)

December 4, 2008 at 9:15 AM | 0 Comments

They'll be bound together by the court documents: Chris Brown and Rihanna were served with a $1 million lawsuit in Florida seeking damages for theft and battery.

Photographer Luis Santana was trying to get a picture of the glam yet much-tattooed couple in St. Petersburg outside their limo when bodyguards chased him off. Not satisfied with that, they allegedly followed him, beat him up and stole his $3,000 camera. And now Santana wants the singers to pay up or else.

Neither Chris nor Rihanna have commented on the lawsuit but her publicist urged that newsmakers "give attention to the positive things in the world," even invoking the recession as a reason the lawsuit wasn't news. How about the fact that neither star was nominated for a Grammy, passed over for Leona Lewis and the Jonas Brothers?

Rihanna Stopped The Music In Jakarta

November 14, 2008 at 9:20 AM | 0 Comments

What, Chris Brown can't watch her back? Mere days after running off the stage during a concert in Sydney, Rihanna is canceling a show in Indonesia over "security concerns."

After delivering an underwhelming set in Singapore last night, plagued by sound problems and marked by truncated versions of her hits instead of bonus concert cuts, the R&B princess is now backing away from tonight's sold-out show because, according to her reps, of recently updated Australian security warnings. Apparently Indonesia's neighbor to the south is concerned that the execution of three Islamic militants this week could cause reprisals, and Rihanna just didn't want to take her chances on the 6,000-strong crowd.

The prevailing theory is that Rihanna is pulling an M.I.A. and hiding a baby bump, potentially related to the aforementioned Brown. Gossip blog Bossip has already named the baby Chrianna, which gave us a little chuckle.

What's Wrong With Rihanna?

November 10, 2008 at 8:45 AM | 0 Comments

When a pop star rushes offstage, there's usually a costume change at hand. But pop star Rihanna never returned to do the second half of "Umbrella" at a concert in Sydney over the weekend. Thank goodness boyfriend Chris Brown was there to cover for her.

Thanks to the magic of cameraphones, we can see Rihanna's run off the stage, for which her rep blamed a combination of overheating, dehydration and the smoke effects used in the show. Another doctor criticized her skintight suits in which she classically performs for not letting the singer breathe. So if you're holding tickets for a forthcoming Rihanna concert, you may want to have a plan B.

How do two hot R&B stars make their getaway? In extraneous layers, apparently! Rihanna and Chris Brown are heading back to the US from Grantley Adams International Airport in Barbados (where she was born), but they sure don't look as if they were just on the beach!

Rihanna has the rest of the summer off from touring, while Brown has one more concert on Wednesday before taking a tour break. Hopefully they'll have time for a less stressful vacation.
