Earlier this morning, during her concert in Sydney, Australia, Rihanna passed out on stage while singing her hit song “Umbrella” with her boyfriend Chris Brown. She apparently just got done flying around in a harness.
When you watch the video you can see Rihanna grab her stomach and bolt off stage, where the paramedics helped her immediately. Chris continued to finish singing the song, then rushed backstage to Rihanna’s side.
I hope she’s all right. The media is sure to say that it was due to “dehydration” or something. We wish her the best of luck for a fast recovery.

Following the release of her hit single “Umbrella,” Rihanna launched a line of totes to celebrate her success. She recently told UK magazine that she is planning to launch another unusual product, underwear.
Soon after she released this public statement, a new claim has emerged that Rihanna is also planning on becoming one of the Victoria’s Secret models.
“No one even contacted [Victoria's Secret], they contacted us and they were throwing around all kinds of numbers and ideas. Everyone’s excited, especially Rihanna,” a source close to Rihanna told Media Take Out.
There has yet to be a confirmation as to if Rihanna agrees or not to model the brand.

The show that has been touted as the “most revolutionary stage experience of the past two decades” and has become the hottest ticket in town has finally arrived.
Kanye West’s Glow in the Dark tour featuring Rihanna, Lupe Fiasco and N.E.R.D., invaded the LA Live Nokia Center on April 21st with a completely sold-out crowd. Among celeb fans in attendance included Jaime Foxx, Pete Wentz, newly-pregnant Ashley Simpson, and Gwen Stefani.
The concert offers more than just a performance of songs, but instead, creates a storyline with the music. Think: hip-hopera… in space!
Confused? Here’s the jist…
Kanye is sent on a mission to space to bring creativity back to Earth. He’s been gone for over a year. All of the crew on his ship are dead, leaving Jane, the on-board computer system, as Kanye’s only companion.
His ship crashes on an unknown planet. As Kanye begins to explore the unfamiliar surroundings, he is greeted by a female alien. Um, do alien’s have sexes? Anyway…
Kanye asks, “Do you know who I am?”
“Of course we know who you are. You are the biggest star in the Universe!,” replies the femalien.
Wow, biggest star in the Universe? Must be difficult for you to play this part, huh Kanye?
The Glow in the Dark tour follows a tough emotional journey of the singer. Kanye’s mother and main inspiration, Donda West, passed away late last year. A tragedy that would have paralyzed many, provided Kanye the inspiration he needed to produce, arguably, the best work of his career.
The show is pure candy for the eyes. Many screens, big and small, showed scenes of whirling galaxies and cataclysmic weather. In collaboration with elaborate lighting, special pyrotechnics and interactive stage pieces, the show elevated from mere concert to grand entertainment spectacle.
Kanye uses his lyrics to narrate the adventure. As his ship is hit by meteor debris, causing it to begin losing altitude, West begins singing the hit “All Falls Down.” After being away from Earth and stranded out in space for so long, he pleads for someone to help him. “Jesus Walks,” representing his faith, provides him the energy to keep going.
While the show is a feast for the eyes, the most memorable period of the night comes when the lights go off. Kanye gave a heart-breakingly emotional performance of “Hey Mama.” The crowd was swept over with silence and tears. Kanye, at his most vulnerable, finds it hard to get through the song. It is at this moment, fans watch a teary-eyed Kanye stop being the heroic astronaut and “arrogant asshole” he is made out to be and come back down to Earth.
Glow in the Dark is an emotional rollercoaster and an musical experience unlike any other. Kanye West has once again outdone himself. It’s a must see.
Unfortunately, the remaining dates of the concert are sold-out, but you can always try your luck with scalpers and eBay.

Rihanna is the #1 rudest celebrity that is! When it comes to fan appreciation I think Rihanna beats out Will Ferrell for the number 1 spot of the list of the worst. While making an appearance at the WeHo private school that Heavy D’s children attend, Rihanna completely ignored the children at the school across the street. The young kids were yelling out her name and she didn’t even turn and wave. Rihanna acted as though they were not even there. Perhaps it is time Rihanna gets a little reminder who pays her bills. YOUR FANS!!

Last night Jack Black hosted the 21st annual Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards live from UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion in front of 10,000 screaming fans–almost all of them teens and preteens.
I haven’t watched the awards since I was a kid, but from what I heard, I didn’t miss too much. Jack Black wasn’t so funny (the hosts rarely are since it’s all so pre-scripted) and the performances by Naked Brothers and Miley Cyrus apparently left much to be desired; which isn’t too surprising because they always sing the cheeziest songs about school and friends. Some teeny-boppers really have no talent.
Here’s a little re-cap:
Akon crashed a dune buggy into giant containers of Nickelodeon’s trademark green slime; Usher blasted a sumo wrestler several yards with slime fired from a cannon; and supermodel Heidi Klum, attached to a bungee cord and wearing a specially equipped “butt spike belt,” flung herself into a wall covered with slime-filled balloons.
Cameron Diaz injected one serious moment into the 90 minute show when she accepted a silver blimp as this year’s ‘Wannabe Award’ winner, representing the person kids most want to be like. After a montage of clips from both her movies and her efforts on behalf of environmentalism was shown, she encouraged the crowd to do their part to protect the planet.
“You’re going to change the world. Every one of you kids is the future,” she told the audience. “Everybody go out and make the world a better place.”
Diaz, who was the first ever Kids’ Choice Awards burping contest winner, has long said that was the favorite of all her awards. She said this one has now trumped it.
Jason Lee accepted the favorite movie award for “Alvin and the Chipmunks” and said it was one of his biggest thrills.
“I’m going to hang this from the ceiling because it’s the greatest award anyone could receive because it was voted on by the kids,” he said as he held his blimp.
Jack Black, announced that 88 million votes were cast this year, more than twice last year’s record number of 40 million.
The show concluded with Black and Orlando Bloom sitting in chairs high above the audience being drenched with what Black claimed was 27 million gallons of green slime.

Rihanna is on the February issue of Germany’s FHM magazine. I remember her saying not to long ago that she was never going to pose nude. Um yeah… right.
