Singer Rihanna wore this colorful but uninspiring getup to match her red clown wig on the set of her “What’s My Name” video over the weekend. While the pictures are cute, the real news is the falling out between Rihanna and her BFF former lover Melissa.
As loyal reader Eugenia points out, Melissa has been missing in action on the set of Rihanna’s new movie ‘Battleship’:
Hi Sandra,
Long time reader, first time e-mailer (and I must say it’s quite exciting) but moving on… Knowing you Sandra, you would have already clued onto this but just in case… Are you as curious as I am as to where Melissa, Rihanna’s presumed BFF is these days? I haven’t seen her in any of the recent shots of Rihanna, not in Hawaii whilst she was shooting her “movie”, not at Vegas by the pool or at Kathy Perry’s Hens and certainly not at Matt’s recent Birthday bash.I’ve noticed that since Melissa’s disappearance, Rhianna’s fashion sense has fizzed… Case on point- Rihanna’s hair at the moment is not the business, her outfits (on and off stage) at the VMA’s were tragic and we’ve rarely seen photos of her out and about looking fly.. It makes me query the extent of Melissa’s influence on Rihanna? Is it possible that Melissa deserves a significant amount of credit for Rihanna’s rise as a fashionista?
I certainly believe so, I read an interview with Rihanna a while back (the name of the publication escapes me) in which she credits Melissa for teaching her how to push the envelope in terms of her fashion and general attitude.
Eugenia has a point. Rihanna benefited from Melissa’s sense of style. And she certainly seemed happier when Melissa was around.
