Pop star Rihanna is the covergirl for the April Issue of VOGUE (U.S.).
The spread was shot by longtime photographer Annie Leibovitz and it set to hit this week.

Fashion trend: Cropped Tops

The ninties are totally back these days! The harem pant, the Bleached jeans, the Skinny jeans and the wedges are all comeback trends. But we’ve got a new one for you girls, the Crop Top!

You probably already know what I mean and some of you might have worn it youself when you were a little girl. The short shirts that show your belly have made their comeback!

The new styles were already seen on the catwalks by Dolce and Gabanna, Givenchy, Alexander Wang and Missoni. Not everyone can wear a crop top that is as short as these, but if you have the flat abs for it, it looks great! You can go different ways with the crop tops, Sweet, Stylish & Classy or robust. So make your choice.

Different celebrities were spotted wearing it, like Cheryl Cole, Diane Kruger, Audrina and Lindsay Lohan. Take a look and get inspired!

Tougher than a lion
Ain't no need in tryin'
I live where the sky ends
Yup, you know this

Never lyin', truth teller
That Rihanna reign, just won't let up
All black on, blacked out shades
Blacked out Maybach

I'ma rock this shit like fashion, as in
goin' til they say stop
And my runway never looked so clear
But the hottest bitch in heels right here

No fear, and while you getting your cry on
I'm getting my fly on
Sincere, I see you aiming at my pedastal
I betta let ya' know

That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard
That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard

Ain't like me
That chick to phoney
Ride this beat, beat, beat like a pony
Meet me at the top (top, top)
Gettin' lonely

Who think they test me now
Run through your town
Ill shut it down
Brilliant, resilient
Fan mail from 27 million

And I want it all
It's gonna take more than that
Hope that ain't all you got

I need it all
The money, the fame, the cars, the clothes

I can't just let you run up on me like that (all on me like that)
Yeah

So I think I gotta let ya' know

That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard

Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard
That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard
So hard, so hard, so hard, so hard

Go hard or go home
Back to your residence
Soon the red dogs will give the block back to the presidents
I used to run my own block like Obama did
You ain't gotta believe me, go ask my momma then

You couldn't even come in my room
it smelled like a kilo
Looked like me and two of my boys playing casino
Trying to sell they peeping my bag they can't afford it
Tell 'em to give me back my swag
They tryin' to clone me

See my Louis tux, Louis flag, Louis frames, Louis belt
What that make me
Louis mane?

I'm in an all white party wearin' all black
With my new black watch call it the heart attack
Cardiac arrest, cardiac a wrist
Yeah, they say they're hard
They ain't hard as this

Hard!

The one word describes me
If I wasn't doin' this
You know where I be, too hard

Where dem girls talkin' trash
Where dem girls talkin' trash
Where they at, where they at, where they at?

Where dem bloggers at
Where dem bloggers at
Where they at, where they at, where they at?

Where your lighters at
Where your lighters at
Where they at, where they at, where they at?
So hard, so hard, so hard, so hard

That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard
That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard
That I, I, I, I'm so hard
Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so hard
So hard, so hard, so hard, so hard

That I, I, I

Music Video: Rihanna - Russian Roulette

Lyrics: Russian Roulette

Take a breath, take it deep
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take a gun, and count to three
I’m sweating now, moving slow
No time to think, my turn to go

[Chorus ]
And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest
And I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
Know that I must must pass this test
So just pull the trigger

Say a prayer to yourself
He says close your eyes
Sometimes it helps
And then I get a scary thought
That he’s here means he’s never lost

(Chorus)

As my life flashes before my eyes
I’m wondering will I ever see another sunrise?
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye
But it’s too late too pick up the value of my life

(Chorus)

Fashion Trend: Ripped Jeans

Ripped jeans can easlily be made. If you have an old pair of jeans in your closet you can pimp it up and update your look.

1. Do some research. Look online and in fashion magazines for the best-looking rips.

2. Most jean companies seem to place them in areas that you wouldn't naturally tear.

3. Decide upon the jeans. Use old or new. Try jeans from a thrift shop for practice.

4. Decide upon the size of the rip. It may enlarge each time you wash your jeans.

5. Decide upon the shape of the rip. You may wish to extend a rip in several different directions.

6. Decide which techniques to use. You may wish to let the fabric become thin on its own. A few techniques, to begin the process, may be all that's needed.

7. Gather your jeans, coarse sandpaper, pumice stone, wood file, grater, utility knife, scissors and a small, flat block of wood.

8. Draw a cutting line or pattern on your jeans with a pencil.

9. Place a block of wood inside the pant leg beneath the area.

10. Rub and scrape the fabric in several different directions. Use sandpaper, a pumice stone, wood file and grater. These will fray the fabric.

11. Loosen fibers by scraping with the blade of a utility knife.

12. Using the scissors, cut a hole through the loosened fibers.

13. Retain all of the loose fibers. They will progressively fray each time you wash your jeans. Use a dryer for fluffier fray.

14. Wear colored nylons or stockings beneath your ripped jeans. (... or don't)

Rihanna Interview On 20/20 [Full 28 Min]

After almost 9 months Rihanna finally told her side of the story and about what happened the night that she got beaten up by singer Chris Brown

On what she said happened that night:
“I caught him in a lie. And he wouldn’t tell the truth … I was being more annoyed at that point in our relationship he had to lie about something so stupid. I couldn’t take that he kept lying to me. And he couldn’t take that I wouldn’t drop it. And … it was ugly.

“I was bleeding. I was swollen in my face,” she said. “So there was no way of me getting home, except for, my next option was to get out of the car and walk. Start walking in a gown, in a bloody face. So I really don’t know what my plan was. I didn’t have a plan. That whole night was not part of my plan.”

On getting back with Chris:
“I don’t have a desire at all to be with him,” she said… I can’t see how we … would get back together, but I’m also not God and I can’t predict the future.”

On whether or not she hates Chris Brown:
“I don’t hate him at all. I actually love and care about him and I’m concerned about him doing well. I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up, and just take this as something that you had to go through to grow up and learn.”

Chris Brown quickly replied in an interview

Chris Brown Interview With Sway Talkin About Rihanna (Addresses Her GMA Interview) [Full 21 Minutes]

Rihanna's latest single has already created a buzz on the radio and on the internet. Some critics say that her lyrics are very provocative and could encourage influenceable people to commit suicide.

Check out what other critics had to say

Entertainment Weekly:

After a few listens, I think those risks absolutely pay off. Rihanna is in fine vocal form throughout, and Ne-Yo’s songwriting is economical and evocative per usual. I have a feeling “Russian Roulette” is a single we’re all going to be hearing a lot of in the coming months.

LA Times:

It’s hard to imagine it blasting out of car windows or even controlling a club, but it’s all attention-grabbing stuff, standing in stark — emphasis on stark — contrast to much of the current pop landscape.

Even though I didn't think it was possible Rihanna has edged up her look even more. Even when she hadn't even released her single you could spot her outfits daily on the internet. And let's admit it, she looks absolutely stunning and her outfits truely inspire every fashionista as Rihanna isn't afraid to push fashion boundaries.
