With Rihanna‘s new project in dire disarray, the 27-year-old is clasping at even more straws than before.

Current single ‘Bitch Better Have My Money’ barely scrapped a top 20 peak on the Billboard Hot 100. So, in hoping to send the polarising cut into the higher echelons of the tally, the model has called on rising Dance DJ R3hab for assistance.

Given that streaming proving an ever important component of where songs sit on the charts, will the new incarnation of the track aid its cause?

Your thoughts?

It looks like Pharrell Williams has something else to be “happy” about.

For, just months after teaming with fashion gurus Chanel for their critically acclaimed short film/music video, the hitmaking producer has been named the face of the line’s pre-fall “Paris-Salzburg” collection.

It’s a good time to be Brandy!

If you need further proof, the R&B diva’s most recent sit down with ‘Queen of All Media’ Wendy Williams should suffice.  There, B-Rocka dished on her current critically acclaimed run as Roxie Hart on Broadway’s ‘Chicago,’ new BET sitcom, and so much more.

Vegas fans were a bit worried after pop megastar Britney Spears took a tumble during last night’s performance of her 1999 hit ‘(You Drive Me) Crazy.’

Bringing her high octane show to a close, the songstress was going through her standard fare of lip-syncing spoken and sung vocals while slackly participating in choreography when her heel gave way.

Early this morning, Spears assured fans that she was ok – presumably ever thankful her trusty backing track was able to carry on in her stead.  See the incident below:
