It may not take much for Barbadian beauty Rihanna to sail a single to the top of Billboard charts, but as spring 2012 proved, she isn’t the best captain on the movie-front.

Indeed, after quickly sinking at the box office, Ri’s ‘Battleship’ didn’t exactly make a splash with critics either – now landing she and crew aboard the 2013 Golden Raspberry Awards (Razzies) list.

With a whopping 7 nominations (just behind hit film ‘Twilight: Breaking Dawn II‘s eleven nods), including ‘Worst Picture’ and a ‘Worst Supporting Actress’ nod for her own showing, it looks like somebody at the Razzie academy – much like other academies – was not pleased with Ri’s performance.

She’s in good company, however.  As, much like her fiercest chart competitions, she will go head to head with movies featuring the likes of music starlets Ciara, Jennifer Lopez, and more:

After setting the net ablaze with a sneaky preview of her GQ cover, Beyonce‘s sizzling pose on the magazine’s February 2013 issue has been unveiled in high-quality.

If there was ever any doubt about the mother of one’s sex appeal in the wake of the birth of her daughter Blue Ivy, the 31 year old dispells it and then some with the Terry Richardson shoot – the rest of which will be uncovered on January 15th.

The feature kicks off what is set to be a busy window for the Destiny’s Child graduate. For, on the horizon are performances at President Obama’s inauguration and the Super Bowl Halftime Show, as well as a HBO Special and Vogue cover. Mobilizing all of this, of course, will be the singer’s new music – the first taste of which we hear is due any day now. Exciting times!

Your thoughts?

Yesterday welcomed the arrival of this snap, confirming Beyonce‘s cover of GQ’s February 2013 issue.

Now peep more sexy snaps from her shoot that surfaced online today, showcasing her phenomenal ‘body’ of work weeks before the release of her brand spanking new single and fifth studio album.

So, until we all have the pleasure of picking up her scorching edition, let us know…

Is This Bey’s sexiest shoot yet?

 

500,000.

While the likes of Drake, Beyonce & Lady GaGa find shifting the above number in units all too easy, their ‘less gifted’ competitor Rihanna continues to struggle to do the same. Well, at least in the same amount of time.

Sure, though global sales of her new LP ‘Unapologetic’ have been sweet to say the least, its US run has been a little ‘so so’ to say the least. So unimpressive, it has only just been certified Gold for sales of over 500k…two months after release.

It’s almost a year since Miguel‘s mega-smash ‘Adorn’ first appeared on his “between albums mixtape” ‘Art Dealer Chic Vol 1’. Fast forward twelve months, and the track has become the hit that keeps giving.

With the 55th annual Grammy’s exactly a month away, the crooner is milking the cut for all it’s worth – taking to the stage on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno last night to perform it.
