What a tangled web Pop Princess Rihanna weaves for herself.

She may be the undisputed Queen of the Hot 100, but it seems for all her hits, it’s apparent Rihanna has no real desire to thank those who afforded her that success.

For, after coming under fire for numerous occasions for her arriving late (and at times lack lustre) at her own stage shows, she cared not to put to an end to his habit…arriving three hours for a gig she booked in Monaco last night.

With ‘one hit wonder’ talk of his cause well and truly dead, ‘Fake ID’ Rapper Macklemore made his way to Ebro Darden‘s ‘Hot 97‘ for an interview many are calling a must see.

Packed with a freestyle and nothing but honesty from ‘Thrift Shop’ purveyor, his time with station saw him speak openly on his stance on homophobia in Hip Hop, and how his new single ‘Same Love‘ seeks to push the equality he thinks the field is missing.

An interesting watch below…

Move over Miley! Leona Lewis is in a twerking mood.

Renown for her “prim and proper”, the balladeer drops down low and pops it in this new “How To Twerk” video manual.

In recent years, the existence of new Lil’ Kim material has become a myth of sorts. Indeed, promises of a new album have only yielded an LOL of a mixtape and an arguably lost battle with Nicki Minaj.

Still, in a bid to show that she still has “it”, the self-styled Queen B sprung a surprise on fans this morning in honour of her 39th birthday – the full version of new single ‘Looks Like Money’.

Taking to Twitter, she wrote:

Here’s just a LITTLE gift from ME to U on MY birthday! #LooksLikeMoney

The ego-soaked number (which takes a swipe at Minaj from the first line) may look like money, but does it sound like it too? You be the judge after the jump…

Alexandra Burke is wasting no time drumming up buzz for her forthcoming album. Case, point, these new promotional snaps, which are dripping all sorts of diva.

The 24-year-old X Factor winner recently told That Grape Juice that she’s channelling a more soulful sound this go round, one she likens to “Whitney Houston-meets-Coldplay”. To bring her vision to life, the powerhouse vocalist has paired up with American mega-manger Kevin Liles and producers such as Rico Love as well as the maestro’s behind Drake’s material.

Needless to say, we can’t wait to see what Ms. Burke is cooking up — especially as it’ll dub as her US debut.

For now, though, peep more pics below…
