When all else fails, reach for the controversial. This, so it seems, is an M-O aspiring singer Rihanna is well versed-up in. For, despite vowing this time last year to move on from the topic of Chris Brown, The Noise spoke once again on the intimate details of their controversial relationship.

This, of course, having nothing to do with the minimal buzz surrounding her new LP ‘Loud’, which is but a few weeks away from release.

R&B star rocked the red carpet last night at the ‘Ultimate Face-Lift’ gala to benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation. The event, which took place at Lord & Taylor‘s in New York, was also attended by the city’s mayor Michael Bloomberg – who was snapped posing with the stunning ‘Ride’ singer.

Randomness: While we evidently take to Ms. Harris here at That Grape Juice, it’s impossible to side-step the fact there’s some serious BS popping off behind the scenes with this ‘Basic Instinct’ project.

All signs point to the album itself having been finished some time ago; yet, despite dropping one of the hottest videos of the year with ‘Gimmie Dat’, her promotional train has barely left the station. No televised performances and minimal interviews. Do her team expect to cram the bulk of her promo-push into the week of release and/or after? If so, they may be in for a rude awakening. Singles, as most know, are used as vehicles to drive album sales. Hence if the singles aren’t being pushed (and believe that both ‘Speechless’ and ‘Gimmie Dat’ are already available on iTunes), then what do they expect back in terms of album sales?

As sad as it is to say, it’s all looking rather bleak at the moment; which has me really itching to see Ciara manage to turn it all around. For, on her end – she appears to be fulfilling her obligations as an artist (delivering hit worthy material, bettering herself as a performer – both vocally and with the choreography); yet the forces around her don’t seem to be syncing to make it all work.

Regardless of how this all pans out, it will be oh-so-interesting to see what changes, if any at all, Ms. Harris makes  (see: label, management, image) after riding this campaign out.

‘Basic Instinct’ hits stores December 14th.
