I feared bug was going to kill me: Rihanna’s dad

Image
RIHANNA'S father feared he was going to die after being struck down by a killer tropical disease. Ronald Fenty, 57, was rushed to hospital when he was struck down by dengue fever. Speaking as he recuperated, Ronald said: "It was horrible. I thought I was going to die." And he revealed he had no way of contacting Umbrella star Rihanna, 23 – real name Robyn – until one of his daughter's pals lent him a phone. He said: "I was actually in a hospital ward that Robyn's friend worked in as a doctor. She offered me her BlackBerry to call Robyn. I called her and she was worried – she said, 'Daddy, what's wrong with you?'." Despite the peril, Ronald reassured his daughter – now back in LA after a pals' holiday in Europe – that he would be fine. He added: "Luckily I pulled through after a scary few days." The pair were once estranged over Ronald's crack addiction but are fully reconciled. Rihanna's half-sister Kandy – who, like Ron...

Rihanna’s £215k on girly yacht hol

Image
RIHANNA would need more than a boot of a Volvo estate to fit the drink she necked on her booze cruise. The star forked out £200K hiring a yacht for the past week for her and her pals – and they drank the boat dry. The Bajan singer has been bongoed until 6am every night and getting straight back on it the next day. After flying to Nice, south of France, on Monday, Rihanna has spent the last five days on a no-expense-spared trip to St Tropez, Cannes and Italy's Portofino and Sardinia. One thing you can't call her is tight – she's been splashing around £3K a day on Champagne and meals out for her and her mates. She's also been tipping crew and waiters around 100 euros a time. A source said: "The crew ordered the maximum amount of Laurent-Perrier Champagne they thought a few girls could down in a week, but they drank it all in just over a day. "By midday on Monday they had sunk 12 bottles. On their nights out they ordered Moët & Chandon Champagne, Grey Goose v...

Rihanna on Shaq's love interest list

Image
AN E-MAIL exchange between former basketball player Shaquille O’Neal and Newsweek journalist, Allison Samuels, has revealed that the sportsman had a thing for Barbados-born singer, Rihanna. The racy e-mails between O’Neal and Samuels were reportedly exchanged in 2008 when O’Neal is believed to have rekindled his relationship with his wife, Shaunie. The couple had separated in 2007. The Los Angeles Times newspaper alleged that Samuels sent the former LA Lakers player a list of names of women whom he could pick from for dating, but the player is said to have turned each one of them down, saying none of them was his type. He then came up with his own suggestions, it is claimed It is alleged that he told Samuels: “All I want is you or Rihanna.” However, the newspaper said, Samuels hinted at the Loud singer’s age saying: “Rihanna is too young - 19 - she is just legal.” Neither Samuels nor O’Neal, who retired from professional basketball in June this year, have commented on these reports.

Rihanna Dances On a Yacht

Image
There doesn't seem to be a day that goes by that we don't see a bikini-clad Rihanna livin' it up poolside -- or in this case, on a private yacht. The sexy singer recently stripped down to a bright blue bikini to catch some sun and do a little dancing in Saint Tropez and X17online.com was there to document the action. The pop star drank the day away -- she and her pals were sipping on Champagne from some very fancy crystal glasses -- and even got their dance on.

Rihanna's see view

Image
The singer has been non-stop while on her European trip with her pals. Now in Portofino, Italy, the star dressed to impress as she headed out to check the local nightlife. Just hours earlier she was necking wine with pals over lunch at the resort. The singer also tucked into an ice cream during a shopping spree. Wearing a sexy one-piece suit, the singer looked as tasty as her dessert. Rihanna's personal trainer Ary Nunez recently revealed: "Chocolate ice cream is her comfort food. She says to me, 'I need my quota.' I believe deprivation leads to disaster, so I don't stop her — that'd be asking for trouble." Huge crowds hung around on the quayside to catch a glimpse of the R&B chart-topper. Maybe that's why she went off snorkelling for the afternoon.

Rihanna rekindles romance

Image
Rihanna is reportedly back with her first boyfriend Negus Sealy, a ladies' man in Barbados known by locals as 'Love God', whose shoulder she used to cry on after her ex Chris Brown beat her up. They have been inseparable since the 'Umbrella' star arrived in her homeland 12 days ago, and Sealy, 26, who dated Rihanna before she hit the big time, was seen hanging out at her villa on the posh Sandy Lane estate. "Negus has hardly left her side. He was her first true love. The ladies here all love him - they call him the Love God," the Sun quoted a source as saying. "They've hooked up in the past when she's been back in Barbados but now things have progressed into a proper relationship again," the source said. Sealy was also photographed dirty dancing with her at the annual Kadooment Day festival of Barbados. "They were all over each other and their dancing got very hot and heavy," a fellow reveller said.

Image
Don't believe rumours that Bajan superstar Rihanna is shacking up with Canadian rapper Drake because she's rekindled her romance with an old lover from Barbados. British newspaper The Sun reported yesterday that Rihanna, 23, who dated 26-year-old ''Lucky'' Negus Sealy just before the What's My Name singer hit the big time, had been seen dirty dancing with the same man locals refer to as "the Love God".

I don't want to be a role model

Image
The pop star says she likes to get attention with her sense of style. "Getting dressed, I want to pick the most bizarre pair of shorts so I can figure out how to make it look right, or work an outfit that will make people go, "What the hell is she wearing?" On hating drama…and perfection: "I hate drama. But at the same time, nothing bothers me more than when life's perfect. And that's the sick part. I just love a challenge, whether it's a relationship, my career, clothing..." On dealing with how messy life can get: "I think honesty is the ultimate liberation in life. People want to shy away from the truth and keep sweeping it under the rug. But after a while, you pick up the rug and there's just way too much dirt, so you might as well just be up front about it." On being a role model for young girls: "I want to set the right example and, at the same time, live my life….I feel like pop stars can't be rock stars anymore because ...

Rihanna to perform at X Factor boot camp?

Image
In what could be some of the greatest news we've heard since the day someone found a copy of Now 46 in the office, Rihanna is rumoured to be playing this year's X Factor at the boot camp stage. Yeah, the boot camp stage. Pretty weird right? Well the X Factor gang (who hopefully all have matching bumbags) have allegedly decided that seeing as Chezza and Dezza Minezza (the artist formerly known as Dannii Minogue) aren't on the panel this year, they need to add some more spice to the show. Rihanna is said to be scheduled to perform in front of the judges before the contestants take to the stage during boot camp, y'know, just to make them feel really good about their performances because Rihanna's will clearly be a bit shoddy.

Rihanna likes to feel “like a lady” in the bedroom

The ‘S&M’ hitmaker – who is currently single – is happy to be forthright and forceful in her everyday life, but says when it comes to sex, she wants to be treated “like a lady”. Explaining why she likes a man to take charge, she said: “I play a very dominant role in my life, in every aspect of it. And I like to feel like a lady still, at some point. “I feel like that’s the time when a guy really gets to be a man, and I get to be a woman. And if I’m being a man in the bedroom too, there’s nothing really in it for me.” The red-haired beauty also spoke of her frustration that she can’t act like a “rock star” and have more fun in her career because she is a role model for many young girls. She told the September issue of America’s Glamour magazine: “I want to set the right example and, at the same time, live my life….I feel like pop stars can’t be rock stars anymore because they have to be role models, and it takes the fun out of it for us, because we just want to have fun with art.” H...

They are records that we wrote and produced as the Jugganauts." Verse added the song will have a different sound to 'Man Down', as Rihanna is always trying to better herself creatively and change her sound.
