Rihanna Slapped With Exercise Lawsuit From Trainer

An estimated 27,000 is what Rihanna is said to owe her fitness trainer, Cynthia Percival, according to OK! via TMZ.  Word is that though Rihanna wants to stay fit, Cynthia’s pockets were going thin after not getting paid the proper amount of money for working Rihanna out.  Because of all this, she has filed in LA County Superior Court a suit against the singer so that she can get all that loot…shoot!  I’d be mad, too!  Breaking a sweat for no cash.  Please…sit down and eat a doughnut on the clock!

Anyway, this is all what the trainer says, not Rihanna.  As a matter of fact, Rihanna hasn’t spoken a word about it.  Not surprising.  Whatever RiRi doesn’t want to talk about, she sings about…much later.

Kelis Talks Today’s Music: “95% Boring”; Rihanna In New Album Mode For Summer 2010?

Kelis

So it’s time for Kelis to put together her tracks for her next album, and she gets to tweeting about some thoughts running through her head.  These thoughts were on music, and though she is a fan of music being an artist herself, Kelis reveals that she considers most of the music out here just plain boring, truth be told.  Check her words below:

Absolutely. I can get a lil leant to the side in a party just as much as the next chick and have a ball. And I agree that all music shouldnt And can’t be new or thought provoking. But seriously don’t lie 95% of this stuff is just down right BORING! Like snoozer, nap time. I mean How drunk do I have to be on a regular basis to let this crap slide. I’m not bashing or hating I just can’t help but take some bit of Responsibility. We all have to. Yes you. I have always said the best music comes from people we believe. They don’t have to be the most Gifted, not the best performers or dancers. Its the people we believe. Who do u believe. Whatever, point is I reminded my self how to still Have fun and stay true to myself amidst a world that is prone to smother difference. Who cares if u get it or even like it for that matter Ha, made you look ; ) xoxo

Now wait a minute before jumping…Kelis admits to a few beers prior to the tweets!  Anyway, love Kelis or not, her album Flesh Tone drops soon, and she has just finished the shoot for the album cover over the weekend.  For anyone shocked at this statement from Kelis, don’t be as we all know, she has proven shock ability of about 95%.

On the flip side, Rihanna, a young lady who Kelis herself has stated rips her style much(catch that video here), is rumored to release new music or new album this summer.[source]  Again this is rumor, but Rihanna has been a talking about setting the stage for a new sound, more energetic, so the thoughts of more music and soon aren’t far from her head at all.

Wonder if Flesh Tone and RiRi’s will be similar?  If so, all stuff will break loose!

Rihanna Going More Energetic In Next Album, Less Hard(Interview)

Say what you want, but Rated R is a difficult album to get with.  Rihanna, however, loves the album, and that’s fair enough as she is the artist.  One thing seems to come out of the whole Rated R vibe though, and that is that it seems Rihanna would have never gone so dark without the assistance of that pre-Grammy night fight with her ex Chris Brown.  Back then it didn’t seem her speed and even now, in ways, the album plus Rihanna seems misplaced in raw emotion of a particular time.

Obviously, Rihanna is even more attracted to the highly energetic pop side of things and this is what she vocalizes in the interview below.  Now we don’t want to speculate, but now that Rihanna seems happier and more involved in a better relationship with Matt Kemp - no matter how long it lasts - art seems to imitate Rihanna’s heart.  That being said, yes, as long as her heart is entertained and bringing smiles, as she states in the video, we should definitely look for more upbeat music from the Hard singer.

Rihanna & Matt Kemp Still “Kickin It” Like Xscape; Nicole Richie Has Permanent Bonding Regrets

Just when I thought they were over…I’m WRONG!  Surprisingly enough, Rihanna and Matt Kemp are still together as a don’t tell anyone we are a couple.  Below is a photo of them both as she celebrates her 22nd birthday.  Looks like they are still “hanging” tough.  Tick tock, tick tock..

Rihanna, Matt Kemp

While Rihanna and Matt Kemp are still a-bonding, Nicole Richie isn’t too fond of the permanent bond that she has made with the ink and piercings on her skin [source].  Dating back to when she was 15 and free, Nicole Richie started out with piercings then on to tattoos that she all now regrets because they don’t seem to flatter as much as they used to in her eyes.  Naturally right?  Anyway, there is not telling if she will get any of the tattoos removed due to that thing called pain, but the newly engaged star to Joel Madden is resourceful.  She will figures something out on how to deal with those big ugly monster scars that look like angel wings.
