Check out Rihanna a-front of Harper’s Bazaar!

The Bajan sensation serves all sorts of stunning in the March issue of the publication, which is set to hit newsstands later next week.

With a Grammy performance set for this Sunday and a long list of additional promo stops ahead, Ms. Fenty will no doubt be hoping her efforts help struggling single ‘FourFiveSeconds’.

Billed as the 26-year-old’s big comeback, the Kanye West and Paul McCartney assisted cut is only performing moderately well. Indeed, though jumping to #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week (up 39 spots), radio spins are slowing and the song has yet to hit the top iTunes two weeks after release. Unheard of for a single of its supposed magnitude.

ABC’s ‘How To Get Away With Murder’ has become a TV phenomenon since blazing on to the box last Fall.

Beyond its captivating story-lines and the performances of its ensemble cast, it’s received ample praise for its edgier lean. Something largely attributable to Jack Falahee‘s character, Connor Walsh.

Subverting the expected portrayal of gay characters, Walsh’s racy antics has been the subject of ample debate – as has the network’s decision to air such scenes.

Unsurprisingly, the interest surrounding the Connor character has led to speculation about the orientation of Falahee himself.

Prior to now, the rising star has maintained an air of silence on the matter. However, he shattered it today with a piercing set of quotes in the latest issue of OUT Magazine – which he also covers.
