It’s been a while since I made a post about Rihanna. Here she’s seen gracing the red carpet at the 2008 Spirit Of Life Award Dinner honoring Doug Morris in Santa Monica last night. Rihanna looks radiant in a red hot silk strapless two-piece Monique Lhuillier Resort 2009 number with black 3 in. heels. Thank God her stylist did something with her hair! It has been looking a mess lately. Rihanna looks splendiferous as B. Scott would say!

Toni Braxton was also at the dinner looking the picture of health in a black Hervé Léger by Max Azria cocktail dress with pink rose detail and black slingback pumps. HAWT!

One day after celebrating his 30th birthday with his wife Tameka and close friends at an intimate dinner in Atlanta, Usher was back on the road. He stopped by the GQ magazine Gentlemens Ball in NYC last night. Apparently, Tameka forgot to pack his black suit and tie for the affair. Yes, Usher, they’re laughing at you.

Rapper Lil’ Jon didn’t get the memo that the dinner was a formal affair.
