RIHANNA FOR ELLE (3) BEHIND THE SCENES W/ ELLE RIHANNA FOR ELLE (2)

On Chris Brown:

“We’ve always been friends, but we’re very close now.”

On the rumor about a relationship with Jay-Z (once again):

“Well, it’s crazy that you ask me that. People know that it’s not true,” she says, straightening up. “I think it’s kinda a cliché question, and people know it’s not true, so I don’t even know why it’s still addressed to this day. I get asked about it all the time and I’m like, You’re asking, but you know the answer. I don’t even like to address it anymore.”

  2. IAMDARKAQUA

    IF YOU LIVE IN NORTH CAROLINA…GET YOUR ASS OFF CONCRETE LOOP AND GO VOTE…i already did…so DON’T ASK!!!

  3. i'm just here for the free food

    lookin good.

  4. tire

    whatever. Rihannas album is off the chain. My fav songs are Question Existing,Good Girl Gone Bad,Umbrella and Sell me candy. You check the sells for how its achieved it mark in Europe. we love it over here.

  5. She looks fab. Isn’t that grey dress the same one that Tamia wore to an event like last week? I think the pics are on here somewhere.

    Agrees with 64…I love her album, she might not be a great singer or performer. But Def Jam did a good job at hooking her up with good writers and producers. Along with looks, that’s all you need to make it now-a-days. It’s sad, but true.

  6. COMETOME

    This girl can look good and look fierce at the same time wiv those clothes, although she is wack as a music artist………She needs to seriously change careers to be a high fashion model coz that girl can dress and look pretty, but her singing is just terrible to me I cant see her being the next Mariah Carey or Beyonce, I cant ever see her as an artist in the same league as those ladies, she just need to quit and do modelling! Maybe not acting tho coz I watched Bring It On with Rihanna in it and she quite terrible at acting but she can be a high fashion model tho lol!

  7. UM...I GUESS

    she is so sickeningly FIERCE! i♥her

    and on her and chris being “really close”…wutev we all know you two are dating! give it up already!! lol

  8. Juicy SuperStar

    WOW, she is beautiful.

    I think should could be the hottest chick in the modeling world right now if she decided to become one…. (NOT the hottest chick in the game)….

    LOVE the dress with the red belt… All the pictures are great…

    Her and Chris make a cute couple. They seem like they would be silly and playing all the time… I wish her much success.

  9. Bahamas/Chicago/Cayman Gal

    Rihanna is a beautiful girl, and she definately has made her presence known in the fashion world, I mean Marc Jacobs named a bag after her for goodness sake!! She ain’t no Mariah but the girl does have talent and the music she has given us has been fire!!! She is young and talented, but a tad over exposed in my opinion, which can be scary because I want her career to have longevity!! And as for comment #1 she is an island girl, she doesn’t have to change for anyone, her accent is as much a part of her as anything else!!!

  10. ME

    I LOVE RIRI SHE’S FABOLOUS!!!!! GO GIRLY

  11. DH

    She is too cute. I love the gray dress with the red belt and the swimsuit shot.

  12. KEEPEMUP

    She is the new Halle B

  13. What a lovely sunny day...!

    i personally think she has slightley changed her acccent. it use to sound very raw but now she kind of mixed it up with the american part of it too. With it she stand out though,which is a good thing….

  14. Buffy

    The smartest thing Rihanna could have ever done is cut her hair…it made her endearing…and now other celebrities are certainly more natural looking lol I’m picking but I’m kinda happy they are…I was seriously tired of the wigs…they had begun to trickle down and people I passed on the street were wearing those ridiculous hair hats…

  15. 18

    i think she not the greatest performer,but no one can say she cant sing,she growing in the business, she will learn how to control her voice like beyonce,mary and did. she has her own voice and its unique. she can hold a note. Rihanna working on her 4th album aswell.

  16. Lady Architect

    She always kills a photoshoot. She looks great.

  17. kori

    Well thats the thing, we DONT know the answer Rihanna, thats why they asking bout you and Jay derrrr. And why she acting pissed bout the question? Its just a question lolz. Its either true or false and she chose to dodge the question, I dunno if this rumor is true or not cos Ive missed whether she has actually mentioned it was false, Ive always thought RIhanna kept dodging the question….

  21. www.MethodAtelier..com

    This chick is a star!!! Say what you want but she’s gonna be a Legend.

  22. hood_shit

    She def should MODEL!

  23. gwadalove

  24. itzzzkimmm

    She is fierce as hell!

  25. Emma V's Great-Grandaughter

    She looks nice.

  26. Tabby

    Punked show celebrities true colors. You can tell who is really messed up by their reactions. I’m banning that show. Why is it, everytime they are punking a black person the police have to be involved?? It’s a terrible pattern. I’ve been saying this for years. When they punk white people, the police “should” be called. Because, 9 out of 10 they are drunk and driving…But nothing is said. But punk a black person and the cops are there asap.

  27. silly_rabbit

    OMGGGGGG *rushes to CVS*

    rihanna is my girl!!!!!! ahh i need that right now!!!

  28. FIRESTARTER1981

    I don’t think that I’ll ever buy a cd that Rihanna sings on but I have to give credit where it is do. I just love this girl style. Whoever her stylist is they are on the damn job! That red dress on the cover of the magazine is really nice and stylish, the short grey dress with the red belt is very nice also. Her clothes flatter her body and her hair cut. She’s not a musical genius but she damn sure knows how to dress. Momma Knowels needs to take note.

  29. LoNdOn GaL

    AWWW. how sweet. her and her bro.

    concreteloop, might as well call their website onlyriri.com cause most of ur posts r bout riri. wen she was an r&b star u guys werent all in her biz like dis.

    anyway she looks fly ive got 2 say

  30. BT

    I think fashion magazines are the devil. Don’t buy them, they will make you hate you body, skin, and hair and want to waste your money on things created by designers who don’t employ Black models. That aside, Rihanna looks pretty good. I like this cut better than the last one, but I still think she looked best when she first started making music.

  31. Dev

    I like Rhi, she is a refreshing look to the usual lost in weave artists that we have, she wasn’t afraid to take out the weave and cut her hair into a style that was copied across the word and then change it again. Yes, she may not be the best singer (a Mariah, Whitney, Celine or Christina) but she does her thang, she created a pop style album that many artists are copying now. If it all ended for her tomorrow she would have made her mark in popular culture.

  32. Buffy

    wait, that shot of her in the leotard is hot! They should have thrown a satin mini skirt on her and had that as a cover shot!

  33. I

    Looking beautiful as always Rih!

  34. sweetie pie

    Do it Rihanna!!!! She looks terrific.
    Yes, she had a stylist for the magazine shoot. Stylists are a requirement for any magazine shoot to capture the the editors vision and because the clothes for the shoot are loaned TO THE MAGAZINE for the shoot so someone has to put a look together. Whoever put that outfit together may have been hired by Elle Magazine.
    To those saying she can’t sing must not have heard Take a Bow, the song with Maroon 5, and heard her on the Glow in the Dark tour. Baby girl’s vocals have come a long way. Since she has been on Glow in the Dark she has surprised a lot of people with her singing ability. She needs to work on energizing her performances but she is a good singer.

  35. KRoc

    Mad KUDOS to the stylist!!!

  36. Becca the Promo Mami

    she’s so beautiful… and she makes fun music.
    leave the girl alone.

  37. Flygirl

    I never hear anyone say kudos to so and so so’s stylist. I have heard one RnB Queen say I never leave the house without checking with her stylist first. So why ya’ll tripping like this entertainers know how to put themselves together all the time. They are a product (themselves) they are selling an image. I think Rhianna looks great and I love her style.

  38. peace

    SHE DOIN
    HER THING

    ……………..CONTINUE

  39. STLCHICK

    She looks great as usual. She’s just a boring performer in my opinion. Isn’t her photographer that famous photographer off of America’s Next Top Model?

  40. scorpiopooh19

    I really like the grey dress with the red belt…its it just me but Rhi Rhi would be a great modelz?…hmmm…maybe she should try her hand in modeling…just a thought.

  41. SAxlerod

    Think about it. Ever since they covered up her forehead, she’s had nothing but mad success and exposure. I wish her the best and this is just my observation.

  42. Minzin

    One Word : FASHIONISTA!!
    Wow Rhi Rhi’s Killin Em’ Damn She So Fierce

  43. 18

    cosign @ 100 Peace

    102.

    STLCHICK

    yeh thats right

    Its him from ANTM !

  44. 18

    104 that is right, but without a doubt she is beautiful,but some people in the industry are addicted to perfection and just have to hide the flaw.

    I also think men are more attracted to her now,that she has this sexy back look lol. i.e chris (they have alway been friends,but now they are close, i remember reading in 2006 they went on a date,but nothing much happened.) and she was in ASK top ten desirable women poll. i think she beat some famous names. she was at number 6 or 7.

  45. Buffy

    #107
    yeah, she climbed up in that poll as well as the beach bodies poll and every other hottest outfit/body/style/look/hair poll but about the ask men poll…it’s the strangest thing but every single year AFTER they release the results, the men who frequent the site always complain, as if they never voted for the women in the first place. It puzzles me…

  46. TA- N i A

    WHY HASN’T SHE EVER BEEN 0N THE C0VER 0F ViBE?? THATS CRAZyTO ME

  47. bhzlacewigs.com

    HOT! Her stylist is doing their thang!

  48. pistol p

    SHE’S A LIL “OVER RATED” BUT SHE BAD THOUGH HANDS DOWN.

    She looks like she was made for modeling. She looks like a natural model. I don’t really like the cover shot, but the other pics are def. high fashion quaity I think.

  52. SweetThang729

    That great dress with the red belt is HOT!!!!! I’ve seen like 2-3 celebs wear it all in this one month…

  53. emaa

    does anyone know where we can get that gorgeouuuss donna karan red dress on the cover? IT’S SOOO PRETTY.
