We hear the 30 year old is readying a book for next year; hence, so as to get her name and face back in the fray, she posed it up for photographer  Corey S. Guevarra in what looks to be a stunning new shoot.

Rihanna‘s ‘We Found Love’ seems to be song of choice for a line of singers with actual talent to inadvertedly show the model up.

The latest songbird to bless the track? Dance diva Wynter Gordon.

Gordon, who recently performed on That Grape Juice’s Splash, once again took centre-stage – this time at the First Fleet showcase in Iowa this week, where she served up a uniquely fresh Fenty’s global smash.

Looks like it really is a Good Friday for fans of ‘Pink Friday’ maestra Nicki Minaj.

Already teasing pop fans with ‘Roman Reloaded‘s’ official lead single ‘Starships’, now the Harajuku Barbie is playing to urban radio by launching the visual to her stinging new single ‘Beez In Da Trap‘ with up-and-coming rapper 2 Chainz.

The promo machine continues to churn for a certain wigged wonder.

For, not long after a ‘Today’ saw her grace its stage, Good Friday became ‘Pink Friday’ when ‘Roman Reloaded’ rapstress Nicki Minaj took to Times Square tonight to help phone giants Nokia launch their long-awaited Nokia Lumia 900.

The surprise showing saw Minaj lending a medley of hits while the ever appropriate ‘Starships’ was the focus of the launch.  It’s said the tune was treated to a Nokia-themed remix.

Get into some snaps of the event (courtesy of the Harajuku Barbie herself) below:

Boasting additional contributions from those near and dear to the late star, the retooled episode relays her storied rise, tragic demise, and lasting legacy.

A touching watch.

Your thoughts? 

 

Ahead of ‘Battleship‘s monster debut, Rihanna took part in a far smaller role- starring as the lead lady in an ‘Elle’ mini-flick.

Channeling the character she played in 2010’s ‘Te Amo’, the film’s release follows her spread in the mag, which saw her speak openly on Chris Brown and their rekindled friendship.
