Rihanna kicked off 2012 on a positive note, choosing to wear her bra and panties under her clothes, and not instead of them.

The model rung in the New Year at CIROC‘s Miami end of year bash, which was hosted by Diddy, and saw the likes of NeNe Leakes and Vivica  A Fox also in attendance.

Also notable by his presence was Fenty’s former boyfriend, Matt Kemp, who you can spot hovering in the shot above. Could it be a rekindled romance for the pair? Who knows. Who cares. We just hope McFenty rekindles her relationship with a vocal coach and choreographer. {Source}

“She’s a flop!”

A phrase used all too often, yet rarely probed.

The gargantuan success of mega-sellers such as Beyonce and Lady GaGa have seen acts who don’t meet their commercial benchmarks cast as “failures”.

But are they, though?

Hit ‘PLAY’ to watch us examine this, with particular reference to two of R&B’s most debated acts – Kelly Rowland and Ciara. Be sure to let us know what YOU think below…

The last 15 years has seen Beyonce establish a work ethic like no other. As such, rumours of her child’s arrival were never going to slow down the promo train for her latest LP ‘4’. Case, point, her “appearance” on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve last night.

Much to the chagrin of her detractors, the singer offered a previously-recorded performance of ‘I Was Here’ – ironically stealing the show despite not being there.

Watch the stirring showing after the jump…

Pop tour de force Lady GaGa saw out 2011 with the same way she entered it – with a bang!
