In a recent interview WPGC radio, Covergirl model Rihanna discussed what she believes to be the biggest misconception about her – that she’s a “bitch”. Check out the video above for her explanation of why folk seem to assess her as such.

R&B veteran R. Kelly has revealed that he has more ‘Trapped In The Closet’ chapters ready for release – that is, only if fans want to see and hear.

Originally debuting in 2005, the hip-hopera, as Kelly then deemed it, was a collection of songs which related to a particular narrative; with each chapter connecting to the next. As I’m sure most of you know already, the first-of-its-kind release was hugely successful, with radio and consumer lapping it up. What we’re keen to find out though…

Do you want more ‘Trapped In The Closet’?

Here are some screenshots from Rihanna’s music video for ‘Rude Boy’. The song is the 3rd official single to be released from her platinum-selling ‘Rated R’ album. The video will premiere on February 11th. Peep more shots below:

The ever-trendy Rihanna is going to be recording some new material with David Guetta. This will be the first time that the model will be working with the Dance music producer/DJ. There is no word whether this project will be for a new album or a re-release of  her ‘Rated R’ LP. {Source}

This is not shocking in the least. Everyone has been chasing after Guetta since he worked his magic with Kelly Rowland on ‘When Love Takes Over’. It would be interesting to hear what they two come up with as I’ve always likened Rihanna’s voice to Akon’s and his track with Guetta, ‘Sexy Bitch’, was a great one for the club.

The video for Simon Cowell‘s charity single for Haiti, a remake of REM’s ‘Everybody Hurts’, premiered a few hours ago. Set to propel the song, which hit iTunes yesterday, into the stop spot, the accompanying video -which visually highlights the magnitude of the disaster- features a number of the track’s featured artists including Alexandra, Burke, Leona Lewis, JLS, Robbie Williams, and Cheryl Cole. Acts such as Mariah Carey and Kylie Minouge laid down vocals, however, were unable to appear in the video due to scheduling conflicts. Still, an admirable effort by all those involved.

Beyonce‘s much hyped Vizio commercial premièred a few moments ago during the last quarter of the 44th annual Super Bowl extravaganza in the US. Check out the Wally Pfister directed commercial above….

As ever, Bouncy stays stacking the endorsement deals; and with this one reported to have netted her a cool multi-million dollar figure, we’re certainly tipping our hats to her. Go Bey!

Songstress Alicia Keys will be celebrating tonight; the 29 year old’s fourth studio album ‘The Element of Freedom’ climbed to the top of the Official UK Album Chart today – her first ever #1 on the tally. ‘Element’ jumped up one spot from last week to clinch the coveted position, achieving the feat after eight weeks on the chart.

The news comes on the heels of Keys’ increased presence here in the UK, which has seen her perform on several high profile television shows, exclusive industry events, as well as the announcement of her forthcoming UK arena tour.

While I can’t say the album rocked my world (I actually found it rather boring), I respect Alicia’s artistry and the fact she makes quality music (most of the time). What’s more, I’m enjoying that she’s upping the ‘entertainment’ aspect of her craft (aka not just sitting at the piano all the time) – as evidenced by her performances of  recent single ‘Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart’. More power to her.
