  • RIHANNA MANIA: Asia Arrival, I-D Mag, Status With Matt Kemp, & Interview

    Written by Natasha - Last updated: Wednesday, February 10, 2010

    A post for the Rihanna lover in you:

    Rih was spotted arriving into Seoul, South Korea today.

    And there’s more where that came from.   More ish when you read the rest….

    Rih is over in Asia doing some promo for Rated R.

    And here’s pics of her in Tokyo over the weekend:

    Cute.

    She’s covering the new issue of I-D magazine as well:

    Cool shots.

    And here’s a recent interview Matt Kemp just did about his “friend”:

    “I can’t get distracted by that,” Kemp said about the buzz over his Baja trip. “My job is to get my work in, which I’ve been doing. Nothing distracts me from my job, not the contract, or my personal life. When it’s time to play baseball, that’s my job. No distractions.”

    Kemp said Rihanna is “just a friend,” that he wasn’t expecting the international fallout triggered by the Cabo road trip, but accepts it.

    “That wasn’t the plan,” Kemp said. “She’s just a friend, a good friend of mine and we went down to Mexico and had fun together.

    “I didn’t think all that would come out of it, it just happened. I’m not used to that much attention to my personal life. It’s really not that big a deal. But in L.A., doing things here, you’re under a microscope, they’re examining everything you’re doing. It’s L.A., man, the city we live in. It is what it is. Can’t control what happens.”

    Source

    Rih’s PR team taught him well….

    And here’s vid of Rih on “The Thread” (Yahoo) speaking about clothes, style, being a Cover Girl, music, helping Haiti and more.

    The Randomness:

    1.We’ve added more pics of Alicia and Beyonce on the video set here.

    2.  It’s the Blizzard Of 2010 Round 2 out here.  So to all my fellow NY/NJ/DC/MD/VA and other folks….be safe.  We’ll be here snowed in and blogging away.  Again.

      She’s a beautiful girl. You can’t deny that. I’m no huge Rihanna fan, and I think she lacks talent where it counts, but I JAM that Rated R album in my car lol Can’t even front. The best thing she ever did was ditch the image her record label carved out for her (Rihyonce) and go bad. Do you, Ri-Ri.

      The lepard jacket and the hair are the business. But, let’s be real and I’m not hating, I’m, stating facts. Rihanna is known more for her beauty and fashion, than music. I think she and her PR team know this also and for her to stay relevant, she must be up on her fashion and messing with random men? and what’s this she says in the article, “I’m not a lesbian, but I love women”. Seriously? I just wanna know if this is what Rihanna has to do at a young age to stay relevant, what will she be doing when she gets to her 40s? Them boobs don’t stay perky forever!

      Are some of you that ignorant not to realize that all of I-D covers are models with one of their eyes closed? Maybe it just the hate that some of you have for this girl that you can seem to have any common sense or rational thinking when it comes to this girl.
      Furthermore what makes some of you think that Rihanna and Matt can’t just be goods friends with benefits? Why does he have to be using her, why can’t it just be mutual from both ends? All Riri needs is a dick to scratch her itch when she has one and maybe Matt just needs to fuck a good rich pussy when he needs to , without having the hassle of having to pay a bitch or take a her out on some spending trip in order to the get pussy. The way I see it without being bias or hateful towards either party, is that they both are adults who have had their share of Bad relationships and just don’t want the hassle or drama.
      let them fuck in peace, they are young, cute and rich man.Leave them be for Christ sake.

      I’m sorry- but I love when RiRi is outta character–I love her relaxed jean and combat boot look. She’s sexier to me that way cuz I know she’s just chillaxin and being natural. She’s looks great in whatever she wears, so I really don’t care. As for Matt…eh whatever, I never really cared for him anyway..to me he is an older version of CB, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks that. But he obviously was giving Ri what she needed…and that’s ok too. I knew they weren’t serious considering they just met a couple of months ago, but everyone has needs….SO GET IT IN RIRI!! I DON’T SEE NO RINGS ON YOUR FINGERS!!! At least not anymore..lolol. Anyway, I’m elated that Ri is back to work and getting her life in order music wise….I love it when she’s in business mode. I C U ROBYN!!!!

      I’m sorry but Rhihanna need to get a new hair do, her face is too long for that pompadour style. That long skinny face coupled with the hair do makes her look like an ugly conehead b#tch!

      *yawns and stretches*

      I think the day is the day that I say I am officially tired of Rihanna. Damn… I don’t even have anything to say. Her fashion game is on point… but isn’t it usually? Oh yea! Just thought of something… she usually says these off the wall stuff like “I love women… but I’m not gay” to keep people talking about her so she stays “relevant”.

      Bless her heart. 3 more years I say… 3 more years!

      I hope Rihanna has nothing to do with that leech Matt because he was just using her for publicity.

      Plus, he has alot of personal issues with women.

      Rihanna needs to hang in there. A good guy will come along.

      Guys like Beat them down Brown and Matt were just using Ri for publicity. She has to be very careful and keep any guy she is dating out of the spotlight.

      Plus, she needs to do a background check on some of these guys.

      Yeah ok, the avg person like myself didn’t know who the hell Matt Kemp was till he was photographed. Matt is cute, but a dumbazz to think he wasn’t going to get photographed with Rihanna. I luv Rihanna, but I wish she would date guys with some intellect. OH wait…they’re not dating…just taking care of the “needs”. so get over it ppl.

      Matt looks good, but needs to stay quiet and just look pretty. lol lol

      Ri looks just freaking fab in these pix above! Hair,makeup & those nails? are the business! Get it! She certainly has one of the best styling teams in the industry right now,hands down!

      As far as her “relationship” with “friend” Matt Kemp goes? well,they’re both very grown so what they do,is very much their business!

      Heck,I don’t blame Ri for just wanting to have her fun for now,especially after a painful/scandalous previous relationship. Do you baby girl

      Rihanna is the most misunderstood female artist in the industry!I mean yall call her a bitch, whore, devil worshipper,swagger jacker, etc. And then the rumors!!! CAN THE GIRL LIVE?! Why spend so much time hating on someone you don’t even know? If you don’t think she has any talent then why give her so much attention? This is why there’s always a post about her- your negative comments bring more attention to her!!! WTF it’s like some of you personally hate the girl! Why? I honestly dont get it. What is it about her that garners so much hate from women? Rihanna must be on top!!!

      Rihanna and Matt are fuck friends. People have those type of friends. The thing is they don’t go broadcasting it to the entire world. They should’ve kept that thing under raps. A lot of men are dogs. Matt wanted to hit it and he succeeded. Well done Matt. Rihanna please get a clue.

      I doubt Rihanna slept with him. She looked susicious of him when they were at an NBA game together.

      Also, when all that stuff came out about him, he was never seen with Rihanna again. I think Matt maybe bitter than Rihanna dumped him.
