ON THE SET: RIHANNA SHOOTS “TE AMO” VIDEO

Rihanna waves to the camera while filming the Anthony Mandler-directed music video for “Te Amo”, the fourth single from Rated R.

Rihanna later fought the fog in a flowing floral dress on Thursday as she walked the grounds at the castle of Vigny just outside Paris. Check out more photos below.

    that “edgy” sultry style of hers is costing her money, with her fledgling concert ticket sales…parents are no longer supporting her..oh well…time to sex it up (more) because sex sells, right? Obviously not

  2. Curaçao 4 life

    Riri looks Hot and beautiful like always
    Te amo Riri

  3. when keeping it real goes wrong

    I wonder what spells Rihanna will cast this time.

    WITCH.

  4. entourage

  5. KA

  6. SelenaBina

    Favorite song on the album!!

  7. concretebruh

    i like the song and RiRi looks sexy as usual! that rated r album is tight beginning to end, in my opinion

  8. skinnyredchick(NEWORLEANSBOUND)

    She looks sort of slim in that dress. ( very pretty)

  9. cherry pie

    LOL @skinnyredchick you need therapy, your obsessed with weight
    the song thats dedicated to melissa lol!! lets hope this video isnt another posing in front of the camera/modelling shoot kind of video *fingers crossed*.

  10. girl

    “& then we danced underneath the candleabra…”

    just glad someone at defjam is finally releasing some of the catchier songs as singles…is melissa gonna play her love interest in the vid??

  11. girl

    & wasn’t “te amo” released internationally already?

  12. MIMI

    (HMM..MY COMMENT DIDN’T POST SO HERE WE GO AGAIN)SHE LOOKS NICE BUT THATS WHERE IT ENDS, I’M SURPRISED J DAKAR POSTED THIS AND NOT ANGEL (FOR SOME REASON I THINK ANGEL IS IN LOVE WITH RHI RHI)

  13. meme76

    Girl,
    Yes, it was number one in Brazil last year but I don’t think it was ever officially released anywhere, just leaked. I don’t understand Def Jam and their stubborn refusal to just close this lame era of hers out. “Rude Boy” was a fluke hit. After that, they should have just ended it and let her come back with a single and new release as consistently pop as RB. Rockstar 101 is the absolute lamest thing I’ve heard in years. I’m beginning to believe she didn’t care if it flopped in the US because Te Amo is the song she’s banking on internationally to compete against Lady GaGa’s new latin inspired single.

  14. meme76

    To the people asking about her love interest (LOL@everybody saying its Melissa) I think I’ve seen some images of a model…French, I guess, who’s probably starring opposite her. Unfortunately, she’s wearing some of that lame goth sex shit Rihanna wears often.

  15. I heart Chris

    FAIL…… Rihanna is so played out and im so tired of this chick
    Her image is so fake and corny. She should just quit music and go to school or something cuz shawty is wack

  16. KEEP IT 100

    LMAO @ THE COMMENT FROM A CHRIS BROWN STAN.
    FOOL SIT DOWN! RIHANNA ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE. SHE HAS LOTS MORE TO RELEASE OFF OF RATED R SO GET NICE AND COMFY. SHE WILL BE AROUND FOR A NICE LONG TIME. YOU IDIOTS THAT KEEP SAYING SHE IS DONE AND HER TIME IS UP…HAVEN’T YOU BEEN SAYING THAT FOR YEARS NOW?? THIS WOMAN IS AN INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR. DON’T LIKE IT? OH WELL.

  17. *~*lady_love

    That dress is gorgeous, she is gorgeous, and I love that song. Not to mention her legs are to die for! Rude boy was not a fluke hit. It’s a good song! Just give the girl credit for her success and move on. Just because you don’t like her doesn’t mean millions of people around the world don’t. She’s doing her thing and has been cranking out good music consistently.

  18. ☆☆☆5STARCHICK☆☆

    Rihanna’s style is still smoking hot just like her career. Who mad?

  19. Cee

    Rihanna is so last year … Lady gaga has stole her shine and is now on time magazine most influential peoples list … Beyonce is still the raining queen … Just ask anybody with a brain, eyes and ears …. Rihanna is competeing with divas she can’t touch … Poor child … Just keep taking off ur clothes and maybe ur ticket sales will increase …. Beyonce sold out the O2 arena 3 nights in a row … Let’s see if rihanna can even sell out 1

  20. Mississippi Scarlet

    Tired

  21. Wow.

    Agree with above. Such a bore. Go away!

  22. BOBBY

    LADY GAGA STOLE RIHANNA’S SHINE?? HA! ROFLMAO
    THAT TRANNY B!TCH IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO RIHANNA’S LEVEL. SHE MAY BE THE NEW HOT WHITE STAR BUT NONE OF THE BLACK FEMALES I KNOW WANT TO LOOK LIKE OR DRESS LIKE GAGA NOR DO THEY BUY HER MUSIC. RIHANNA IS BEAUTY IN MOTION. SHE HAS HAD MORE #1 SONGS THAN GAGA. HER STYLE IS MUCH MORE FASHIONABLE THAN GAGA. HER BODY IS BANGING. GAGA IS A DUDE IN A DRESS. SHE IS THE NEW GAY ICON. HER MUSIC IS STRICTLY FOR THE GAY CLUBS. NOBODY IS RIDING AROUND BUMPING GAGA IN THEIR RIDES. BUT THEY ARE BUMPING RUDE BOY. RIHANNA’S MUSIC IS NOTHING LIKE GAGA’S SO THERE IS NO COMPARISON BETWEEN THE TWO. STOP TRYING TO HYPE THAT FUGLY B!TCH UP LIKE SHE IS THE 2ND COMING OF THE MESSIAH OR SOMETHING. SHE IS A CAUCASIAN BOOTLEG GRACE JONES AND A MADONNA WANNABE. IF ANYBODY IS TIRED AND LAST YEAR IT’S GAGA WITH HER LATE ANTICS. AT LEAST WHEN RIHANNA TAKES HER CLOTHES OFF PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANT TO SEE IT. GAGA STANS CAN KILL YOURSELVES FOR TRYING TO COME FOR RIHANNA. SHE HAS ALREADY MADE HISTORY FOLKS.

  23. wtf

    co-sign @ Bobby.
    I still love Rih Rih. Time magazine & no other white media tells me what’s hot. I’m supposed to love Lady Gaga because they say so? Nope not buying it. I don’t like hypocrites on here bashing Rih Rih for holding hands with her bff Melissa then praising Lady Gaga who has publicly admitted she is a bisexual. Rihanna is in her own lane doing her own thing. Why not be happy that a black chick is doing it big instead of giving all the white artists the glory? They have enough support from their own. When are blacks going to support their own?

  24. bey & Rih stan (beyhanna)

    Ok So Rihanna isn’t a powerhouse vocalist but she can hold a note and she is definitely sexy eye candy. Britney can’t blow either but people still support. Jennifer Hudson and Fantasia can blow but people hate on their image. Rihanna gets negative comments because she isn’t known for dancing but when Ciara dances people complain that she’s doing too much. Rihanna dresses a certain way and people complain that her look is tired. Gaga wears the same thing and people say she is original and a trendsetter. Gaga’s image is completely manufactured by the stylist Nicola Formichetti but people act like only Rihanna has a stylist. Basically Rihanna can’t do anything right for the haters on this site. I’m glad her tour is selling out even though people are lying on here to make her look bad. I’m glad she’s doing well and she deserves all the success she is having.

  25. bey & Rih stan (beyhanna)

    Yes Bey is the reigning queen but Rih is the reigning princess! Not Gaga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  26. B.B.

    @ LALALA Please, if your going to be negative, at least post facts. Rihanna’s tour is actually doing very well, her european leg of the tour is sold out. Stateside she is selling tickets as well. If you don’t like her than why waste your time and energy writing comments on a post about her. It’s funny how it’s always the people that want to hate and claim they are so tired of her that are always making her the topic of conversation, thus keeping her relevant. Go worship you know who. Anyway, Rihanna looks beautiful as usual and I can’t wait to see the upcoming videos for Te Amo and Rockstar 101. I’m sure they will kill the charts. Lol Haters are mad!!!! Stay Mad because THAT RIHANNA RAIN AIN’T GON’ LET UP! BELIEVE IT ;)

  27. SARAH

    TIME IS TICKING FOR THIS PERSON TO FADE AWAY, NEVER TO BE SEEN OR HEARD FROM AGAIN, CANT WAIT!!! QUEEN BEY ALL THE WAY

  28. jessica

    for the stans who are so naive, her tours are NOT doing well especially the ones in the U.S and u all know it so stop…..

  29. SayItLoud

    Te Amo is a tremendous song. Its romantic and so its no wonder Paris was chosen for the video. Rih is loved by the French and the city is coined and def is the romance capital of the world. The city of love and romance so this def is the ideal setting for this ish. GREAT CHOICE.

  30. MINDFUL

    Rihanna is cool, I mean she has had an ass of success you gotta give it to her, I salute Riri on that but I dont understand why people compare her and Gaga. I’m not much of a fan of this “Fame Monster” but whether you give Lady Gaga her props or not she is HUGE I mean completely A HUGE ARTIST. She has the general public’s attention and they wont let go of her! Its hard to ever compete with an artist that explosive at this point. As you can see even Ms Knowles is jumping at Gaga lately. Within just a few months to a year Lady Gaga has accomplished things that took Rihanna two years to do! and trust me I’ve looked at the both of their stats.

    Also just to say in NO WAY am I bashing Riri. She’s doing well still getting her #1 hit singles etc but if you look at how fast Lady Gaga success is growing within little time aww man its soo unfair to compare those two because Gaga is so explosive right now.

  31. Cathyhi5RiRi

    @ MEME76. HELL to the NO NO NO! Tough luck if u looking n hoping for Rated R to be closed out. Aint hapnin. Guess what, . . .Rated R remix is coming soon. Coming to a store near u. I suggest u sit tight enjoy the long ride and welcome again to the Madhouse remixed!!!

  32. nita

    Rihanna pics in that dress above and the background is reminding me of Beyonce video De ja Vue! SMH

  33. roses

    cant wait for this chick to crawl under a rock and disappear from the public.she’s overrated, cannot sing to save her life, doesnt write her own songs.SHE’S A PUPPET!!

  34. honeygirluk

    Why do people keep comparing rihanna’s sales to gaga’s?
    Any black person with a brain knows that it’s harder for us to sell anywhere near as much as most white artists can….they have a more crossover appeal.(sad but true).
    Anyway i’m looking forward to this video.

  35. Weekend_Love

    The song is garbage but the dress is fabulous, not feeling the lipstick and hair

  36. FlyyIAm

    WRONG SINGLE CHOICE DEF JAM!

    The album has so many other songs that could be a single and they choose “Te Amo” SMH Whatever happened to her video for “Rockstar 101″
    Rated R is a dope album but I see the album isnt catching on here in the states. Its just selling internationally oh well

    Lady Gaga is better than Rihanna.. Gaga is a excellent visual artist and she is unique in her own right.

  37. Big Boss

    Te amo, I thought was one the best song on the album (didn’t buy it, unlike last cd which was great, b/c this one is only aiight). I’m glad though it finally became a single. Hope the video as good as the song …

  38. RIRI is BOOMBASTIC

    Miss Boombastic,

    what u want is some boombastic fantastic romantic loverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

  39. neon

    @bobby well if we’re on the subject of sales, why is it that gaga’s albums sell better? last time i checked the charts (that was last week), the fame (her debut) was in the top 10 after spending 75 weeks on the chart, then the fame monster ep was at like #11 while rated r which was released at the same time was at #21. like the post by mindful said, gaga has achieved what it took riri years to do and riri HAS been trying to compete.

    and no, her US dates aren’t selling that well. i knew (before it was reported) that they weren’t selling well b/c that whole madison square garden thing was a lie. it didn’t sell in 24 hours because tickets were still being sold even last week. i think her team is sending out lies to try and make it look like she’s selling

  40. MS. THICKNESS

    When you become popular you have to accept the good and the bad and combine them all together and keep it moving. I am a big fan of Riri i think she is very beautiful and her style is whats happening. Her style is so unique, in a lot of the cosmotology school in Miami they use her as the role model for different haircuts and styles. And also at the Flea Market where they have different booths for doing hair, Rihanna hair styles is main ones that the girls like for their hair. When Madonna and Lady Gaga broadcast their bi ways everyone loves that. You can tell who most of their supporters are. Rihanna keep bringing these bitches new shit. love u, and love the clips of the new video!

  41. FlyyIAm

    @NEON I agree 100%

  42. BOBBY

    @ NEON
    DON’T ASK STUPID QUESTIONS YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER TO. BESIDES SOMEONE ALREADY EXPLAINED WHY…GAGA IS WHITE & WHITE PEOPLE SUPPORT THEIR OWN WHILE BLACKS TEAR DOWN THEIR OWN. ALSO EVEN MORE BLACKS TURNED THEIR BACK ON RIHANNA AFTER THE WHOLE CHRIS BROWN SCANDAL. A BETTER QUESTION IS WHY DO YOU EVEN GIVE A DAMN? YOU ARE NO FAN OF RIHANNA’S SO WHY ARE YOU CHECKING FOR HER ALBUM AND TOUR SALES?
    AND FYI HER TOUR IS DOING VERY WELL INTERNATIONALLY. SHE IS LOVED IN MANY COUNTRIES SO GET OFF THAT. HER TICKETS IN THE U.S. WILL CONTINUE TO SELL WELL ALSO. CHECK YOUR FACTS AND STOP SPREADING LIES JUST BECAUSE YOU HATE HER.
    AND FOR THOSE ASKING TE AMO IS THE VIDEO THAT WILL BE SHOWN OVERSEAS AND ROCKSTAR 101 IS THE VIDEO THAT WILL BE SHOWN IN THE U.S.

  43. No Shade

    Rihanna isn’t thinking about you hating azz b!tches on CL! lmao FAIL!
    Her body is bananas! I’m loving the thick caramel legs.

  44. dolbry

    like the song but i have a feeling this vid will boring. Rihanna has no type of rhythm to make it interesting, i imagine a bunch of chicks jus staring at each other for 4 minutes lol

  45. lalala

    @ B.B aka Rhianna

    Hey girl! How’s ur concert going? Chris says “hi.”

  46. UM... I GUESS

    te amo is one of my favorites from the album… excited to see the vid!

  47. Alaina

    Boring….we need something new.

  48. tertra114

    Ahwww showing her privates again?…that is so cute (sarcasm)

  49. wtf

    Isn’t this the song she made for her lover- Melissa?
    Oh and Gaga DID steal rihanna’s shine and her stans know it Lmao
    Which is why rihanna is trying so hard to be ‘edgy’ just so she can compete with Gaga.
    Rihanna’s spot has been taken. Who cares if she has 10 #1 singles? Gaga’s debut album sold over 10 MILLION COPIES.

  50. sali

    This girl is why a certain person can’t take her six month break. Have yall check the charts lately. Rihanna is here to stay!

  51. FlyyIAm

    @50 aww please a certain girl can take 3 yrs off and Rihanna still wont catch up

  52. ♥¸.•*´¨`*•.¸♥•.¸♥¸SHEENA♥ ¸.•*´¨`*•.¸♥•.¸

    Silence haters! Rihanna was already edgy before Gaga came onto the scene so please stfu with that. Gaga is no competition for Rihanna. Rihanna is a real woman not a tranny. Of course Gaga is doing well. The gays control everything lol!

  53. ஐಌღBåbÿ Gûrlಌღஐ

    I love you Rihanna.
    You are my style and music icon!

  54. dolbry

  55. HYABUSA RIDER

  56. The Wayno Show

  57. bey & Rih stan (beyhanna)

    @ Dolbry

    You must be nuts! She’s on an international tour! Hell no she isn’t fading! You wish! Bey and Rih rule the world right now! Nobody is touching Beyhanna! They are the 2 most famous black women in the world! They only come after Michelle Obama!

  58. 1*STEP*AHEAD

    #bitchboobye#

  60. I see you aiming at my pedestal

    @ lalala
