"When I purchase an album, I like an album where I don't have to skip any songs. That's the kind of album I tried to make. There's something on there for everyone ..." - rihanna
Rihanna was born February 20, 1988, on the Caribbean island of Barbados, as Robyn Rihanna Fenty. She went to Charles F. Broome Memorial School, a primary school in Barbados, and then on to the Combermere Secondary School, where she formed a musical trio with two of her classmates.
In 2004, she won the Miss Combermere Beauty Pageant and performed in the Colours of Combermere School Show, singing Mariah Carey's 'Hero'. At the age of 15, Rihanna received her big break when one of her friends introduced her to music producer Evan Rogers, who was vacationing in Barbados with his Barbadian wife, Jackie. Rogers, along with his partner Carl Sturken, helped Rihanna record material in the U.S that was sent to various recording companies. One copy of Rihanna's work was sent to Jay-Z, who eventually signed her to his record label.
Rihanna's debut album Music Of The Sun, which she co-wrote, was released in August 2005, led by the single 'Pon De Replay', which peaked at number two on both the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart.
The second single, 'If It's Lovin' That You Want', was less successful than its predecessor. The album itself peaked within the top ten in Canada, and the US, and within the top forty in the UK. It has received platinum certifications in several countries and a Gold certification in the US. To further promote the album, Rihanna toured with Gwen Stefani. The album itself sold almost half a million copies in the US and two million worldwide. (read more)

Fetching RSS feed... please stand byRihanna - Unfaithful
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul
'Cause it seems like one
Really loves my company
He's more than a man
And this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
The clouds are rollin' in
Because I'm gone again
And to him I just can't be true
Unfaithful Lyrics
Rihanna Reunites with Chris Brown
Word is that Rihanna has taken Chris Brown back. The duo are reportedly spending time together in Miami -- at the 13,000-square-foot beachfront home of Sean "Diddy" Combs.
Chris Brown & Rihanna back Together
Why is an abused woman takes back her abuser? Look, I know how love is...I know how powerful it can be. But even I know where to draw the line; even I know the things lovers shouldn't do...and one of them is beating the person they supposedly love.
Do you think agree with her choice?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byIt's her choice

JamaicaBlue says:
They're both young and have a lot to learn. Domestic violence and beating on women is plain wrong but the fact is that if Rihanna wants to go back and take the chance of getting beat on I guess that is up to her.

Jay-Z gave them some good advice when he advised them to break it off for now. On a personal level, its definitely the best thing. On a marketing level, them re-uniting after the beat down was killing both of their fan bases.
