New Rihanna songs

2008 was a succesful year for singer and fashion icon of the year Rihanna. After such success many would think that Rihanna would take a break before releasing a new album. But this Barbados beauty doesn't feel this way and seems unstoppable. With a plan to release her fourth album in March/April 2009 this is what Rihanna has to say about her upcoming album:

“I’m currently working on record number four and I’m having so much fun. I’m having so many new experiences and meeting so many new people, it’s amazing. I want this album to head in the same direction as Good Girl Gone Bad but with even more edge. The tracks will be less R&B influenced and will have a feel closer to that of, “Disturbia”, “Shut Up & Drive” and “Breakin’ Dishes”.

Although March/April may seem for away for the fans, some of Rihanna's tracks have already leaked on the internet. Check out her new sounds.

Rihanna - I'm Back



Rihanna ft Akon - Emergencee Room


Rihanna - Sexuality
Some fans have alreay mistaken Rihanna for Prince, because according to them their might be a 'physical resemblance'. With this track I have to say that Rihanna incorporated a style and some beats that is reminiscent of the old Prince songs. But that is as far as the resemblance goes.


Rihanna - Give it


Rihanna - Bitch I'm Special

Barack Obama: Officialy the new president of the United States!

Barack Obama is now officialy president of the United States. The new president gave a memorable speech yesterday in Washington where more than 4 million people attended his inauguration. In November 2008 Barack Obama marked a milestone by becoming the first African-American president. Obama won the heart of the American public not only with his speeches but with his charisma and human side as well. Some even say he has the appeal of a celebrity and let's face it, he looks like a stylish James Bond.

Obama enjoyed the support of many celebrities who helped him in his campaign. Some even paid tribute to him in their songs like Young Jeezy and Nas.

Congratulations to the new president and may he continue to inspire the USA and the world with his inspirational words!

Fashion Trend: (Colored) Pantyhoses

Aren’t you sick of covering up the whole time during Winter time? Even when it’s cold outside we still feel the need to be sexy and wear dresses at times. But sometimes it’s just too cold and you don’t wanna scare anybody off with your milky white legs. Black panty hoses offer the perfect solution and add an instant touch of glamour that finishes off your look.

Colored Pantyhoses
Be different and try bright colored pantyhoses. The Gossip girls have proven us that they can look fun and trendy plus they can transform your look from random casual to fashionable and fierce. Blair’s crew are regularly spotted in purple, red, green, blue, yellow and pink pantyhoses. The Gossip Girl fashion style proves that black pantyhoses aren’t the only way to go.

Prints

Do you find colored pantyhoses a bit too much? Opt for fishnets or pantyhoses with prints. They still look classy and offer a subtle difference.
