She said, “Thirty-one is a decade away. I better be in love by then.”

HOTT NEWS!

Well … sorta’!

It isn’t that RIHANNA’s rude: She’s just shy. But her reserved side is often mistaken for a diva attitude because she isn’t always open and chatty when she meets new people.

She told WPGC radio: “I don’t really open up to a lot of people, usually I go very quiet. If I don’t know someone often I don’t say very much, I observe and people think I am snooty because of that. People assume that I’m a b***h. But I don’t think that I am. I just don’t feel I have to be that enthusiastic if I don’t know who you are yet.”

Rihanna, who was famously assaulted by then-boyfriend Chris Brown last February, also said that despite the incident, she had never considered stepping out of the public eye and can’t see herself making the decision to do so in the future.

She added: “If I could step away from the music industry? I’d never do that because I really love what I do and it would be a shame to give this away because I dreamt about it for so many years.”

Still, Rihanna’s emotions were running so high when she returned to the recording studio after her split from brown that you can hear all her feelings in her new album Rated R. She said: “The vocal performances definitely were influenced by the emotion, the feeling. I wasn’t just singing lines. I was singing every word and every word meant something because it was my story. It was a lot more personal, a lot more real. I was venting.”

She did, however, say recording the album was a positive experience. She added: “Making this album was still a lot of fun, I have to say, it was really good for me.”

Rihanna, 21, also said during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last month that she has set herself a goal to find a new love in the next 10 years. She said: “I hope I am in love by then. 31 is a decade away. I better be in love by then.”

Despite being recently photographed on holiday in Mexico with baseball player Matt Kemp, the singer claims she is currently single.

The pop princess dished that she’d “love” to get into acting, but she’s got a massive tour in the works at the moment. After that, we’ll see!

HOTT NEWS!

Maybe she could be the new Grace Jones of the 2010’s! … LOL!

Singing sensation RIHANNA is a pro on the stage, and now she’s thinking she might try her hand at dropping the mic and picking up some acting gigs in the future. She’s already given it a shot when she appeared in a digital short on Saturday Night Live, and now she might be ready to step it up even more. After her performance at the Pepsi Super Bowl Fan Jam in Miami, Rihanna confessed to Extra’s AJ Calloway that she would “love” to get into acting.

“After the tour, we’re definitely going to focus on that a little bit more,” she dished. The pop star also knows who she wants to share the screen with! RiRi calls beauty Charlize Theron a “perfect 10″ and thinks funnyman Jonah Hill is “hysterical.”

Rihanna is currently hard at work getting ready to kick off her world tour this spring. “I’ve never done a tour to this capacity and the production level is really exciting,” she said. “I can’t wait for the world to see it!”

The singer says that despite some steamy shots of her with Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp, she’s still without a boyfriend.

HOTT GOSSIP!

Believe it! Or NOt!

RIHANNA shot down rumors that she’s been seeing pro baseball player Matt Kemp on a radio show Thursday morning. The singer was on Los Angeles radio show Valentine in the Morning on 104.3 MY FM, when she opened up about her dating life.

When asked about her date for the Grammy awards, Rihanna said, “”I’m going to the Grammys alone, as always! Even when I was in a relationship, I always have gone alone.” Bored with the game, Rihanna went on, “I’m still single, if that’s what you really want to ask!”

Rihanna and Kemp were spotted earlier this month kissing on a yacht in Cabo San Lucas. The two later appeared together at a Los Angeles Clippers game. When asked about the racy Cabo pictures, Rihanna said of the trip, “It was a blast!”

Jay-Z, Kanye West and Rihanna are jointly nominated for a Grammy for “Run This Town,” for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. Of the nomination, Rihanna said, “This was actually the first piece of music we did since the last Grammys. It’s exciting that it’s nominated.”

Rihanna was scheduled to perform at last year’s Grammy awards, but the appearance was canceled after a violent incident in which then-boyfriend Chris Brown admitted to beating her.

The New Year brings rumors of a new man in Rihanna’s life.

HOTT GOSSIP!

WOW-SERS! Riri … has a new man every other blog post we do! … but do we care …?

Rumors are flying that Rihanna and Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp are getting cozy with one another. Gossip tycoon Bonnie Fuller’s new site HollywoodLife.com is reporting that the two rang in the New Year’s together, partying in in the United Arab Emirates after RiRi performed at the Emirates Palace on New Year’s Eve.

Kemp, 25, is a native Oklahoman who made his Major League debut in 2006. He’s the most recent man linked to Rihanna, who has also been connected to a whole string of celebs, including Justin Timberlake, rapper Drake, and 90210 star Tristan Wilds.

“Rihanna and Matt are starting to get serious – he even followed her to Dubai for New Years,” says a source speaking to HollywoodLife.com. “Rihanna likes him because he’s such a gentleman…and super sexy!”

“Such a gentleman,” huh? Sounds like the exact opposite of Chris Brown.

The singer’s book ‘Rihanna: The Last Girl on Earth’ will supposedly hit shelves this June!

HOTT NEWS!

She’s steppin’ into another realm!

RIHANNA’s got the music stuff down pat, and now she’s apparently giving a new creative medium a go. The songstress has apparently been penning a book titled Rihanna: The Last Girl on Earth, and it’s due out in June! The 144-page book is getting some help from Simon Henwood, the guy who did the logo for her latest Rated R album, according to Examiner.com. And, it’ll sell for 50 bucks! Ouch!

From the first emerging details, it sounds like it might be a picture book type thing. We have a hard time wrapping our heads around paying $50 for anything less than 144 glorious pages of Rihanna pictures!

Rihanna brought in the New Year by performing at the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi, for a whopping $500,000, it’s been said. She could buy a lot of her own books with that cash.

ok! … that line was cheesy … f*ck y’all!

HOTT NEWS!

Very believable!

It isn’t entirely surprising that singer RIHANNA says LADY GAGA was her favorite musical artist of 2009. The two share a renegade approach to fashion, for one, as was evidenced by the bondage-inspired ensembles both sported at the American Music Awards in November

Rihanna reportedly said of Gaga, “Lady Gaga has a very bold, fearless image and, I have to say, I have so much respect for original artists who aren’t afraid to do what they do. That’s what I respect the most. She’s awesome.”

With the release of her latest album, Rated R, Rihanna has been uncharacteristically forthcoming about her whirlwind year. She also told a reporter (via BangShowbiz) that she thinks the abuse she suffered at the hands of Chris Brown was ultimately humanizing: “Before, young girls thought my life was perfect. Now they realize it’s not. Nobody’s perfect. I’m living the same human life that they are, just with a more public career.”

HOTT GOSSIP!

Whelp, and the rumor continues!

RIHANNA and KANYE WEST reportedly hooked up at Whisky Mist where she gave him a “very private dance” to Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You.”

HOTT NEWS!

HOTT! Damn!

RIHANNA’s a nutcase!

HOTT MUSIC VIDEO!

“So Hard“

The 21-year-old star also admits she is “embarrassed” that she had such strong feelings for the singer following the brutal attack which left her covered in bruises and cuts.

HOTT NEWS!

Love lost in the tides of emotion!

Despite CHRIS BROWN attacking her last February, RIHANNA doesn’t hate her ex-boyfriend. In fact, she thinks he can learn from his mistakes. She said: “I can’t see myself never speaking to him again. There’s emotion there. I think it’s possible to change.”

The 21-year-old star also admits she is “embarrassed” that she had such strong feelings for the singer following the brutal attack which left her covered in bruises and cuts. She added to Glamour magazine: “It’s embarrassing that I fell in love with that person. He was my first big love and the more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for one another.”

Despite Chris’ attack on Rihanna, the couple reconciled briefly afterwards, which Rihanna has since admitted was a mistake. When asked why they got back together briefly, she said: “Love doesn’t go away easily.”

HOTT BEEF!

Hoping that it escalates!

RIHANNA speaks on TILA TEQUILA making negative comments about her in the past.

HOTT LEAK!

Although there’s been no official confirmation from CHRIS BROWN’s camp that “Famous Girl” is an ode to ex-girlfrend RIHANNA, listening to the lyrics, it’s hard to imagine that it wouldn’t be!

In t his track C-Breezy goes in on Rihanna and says he was wrong for writing “Disturbia.”

Let us know your thoughts.

HOTT SPOT!

As it shouldn’t be unbelievable!

RIHANNA’s arrives in London with a craving for her native Caribbean cuisine. The 21-year-old Barbadian recording artist headed for a late night snack at Ochi Caribbean take away in Shepards bush and quenched her thirst with authentic Barbadian Tiger Malt beer straight from the bottle.

Rihanna Performs “So Hard“ On Good Morning America

BTW, folks! Is it me or does Riri sends a subliminal diss to Chris Brown in this vid? Fast forward to the 01:45 mark to see what I’m talking about!

HOTT MUSIC VIDEO!

But it’s a bit creepy though!

“Russian Roulette”

The new tracks were written in the wake of her assault by ex Chris Brown, so Rihanna has some butterflies in her stomach.

HOTT NEWS!

As it will never hurt record sales!

RIHANNA will release her new album Rated R later this month, and she’ll debut a slightly darker side of her personality on the latest tracks, since many of the songs were written in the aftermath of the Chris Brown assault. Needless to say, she has some butterflies in her stomach about performing the new material. She said:

There are a lot of butterflies, a lot of excitement. I’m anxious. Like, I can’t wait. But you’re always nervous, because you’re about to go do something big. It’s a new thing, a new era. But I’m not scared. I’m just really excited. I just can’t wait to start.

My first time performing the songs was on Sunday night in Los Angeles with Jay-Z. We did ‘Run This Town’ and ‘Hard,’ and I kept thinking, ‘Why the hell am I so nervous?’ And I couldn’t figure it out. But then I knew why: It was the first time performing one of my new songs.

Marking her new era, Rihanna looked radiant when she stepped out in New York on Monday night to accept a Woman of the Year award. The hitmaker was one of several high-profile females – including author Maya Angelou, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s wife Maria Shriver, designer Stella McCartney, tennis star Serena Williams and comedienne Amy Poehler – honored by Glamour magazine.

First Lady Michelle Obama was given an award of special recognition for bringing the importance of mentoring to the forefront. The honorees are chosen by a board of former winners, including Jennifer Lopez, and awards were presented at a special ceremony at Carnegie Hall.`
