Rihanna inks her 15th tattoo to celebrate TTT going gold
Depressed singer Rihanna, 23, had something to smile about last month: her flop album, Talk That Talk, was finally certified gold after 2 months on the charts. To celebrate that minor feat, Rihanna visited a tattoo parlor in West Hollywood where she got her 15th tattoo inked on her body. We don’t know what the tattoo says, but the word “LOSER” might be appropriate to sum up Rihanna’s life right now.
Rihanna wore a color blocked wool sweater over boyfriend cut jeans and white Christian Louboutin pumps. After getting her 15th tattoo, Rihanna went out to dinner with her ex-boyfriend, Dodgers baseball star, Matt Kemp, whom she rang in the New Year with in Miami. Kemp, who is dating other women, has been telling friends that he is not back together with Rihanna.

Last night’s game was the return of Amar’e Stoudemire, who missed two games with a sprained ankle. He poured in 25 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in the losing effort.

Celeb Style: Lil Wayne in Nike Air Yeezy
Lil Wayne has bigger problems to worry about than what you think about his personal style. For instance, he has enough trouble keeping his jump offs separated from each other. Weezy was spotted sitting courtside at the Atlanta Hawks vs Miami Heat game yesterday (Jan. 2) at the American Airlines Arena in Miami. The Heat suffered their first loss of the season at the hands of Josh Smith and T-Mac of the Hawks 100-92. The two teams meet again tomorrow night (Jan. 4) at the Philips Arena in Atlanta.
According to Upscalehype.com, Weezy was clad in a grey Odd Future “Earl” hoodie ($75), spotted animal print shorts, and Nike Air Yeezy Net Tan sneakers ($215). Seated next to Weezy on his left is actor Adrian Brody and on his right is Young Money rapper Mack Maine.
And this is what Wayne wore to the Charlotte vs Miami game in Miami on Jan. 1.

NYE 2012 in Miami: Ludacris, Rick Ross, Mike Epps, DJ Khaled, Terrence J, Larenz Tate
Rapper Ludacris and his lovely fiancee, Fab Eudoxie, attended the New Year’s Eve festivities in Miami, Florida yesterday. Luda hosted the Red Bull Sound clash concert where he performed in front of thousands of enthusiastic rock fans. My source tells me the bridge to the beach was grid lock, so Luda hopped into his luxury speed boat to ferry his mom and his entourage to Bayfront Park.
Other celebs, such as actor Terrence J and rapper Rick Ross, hosted separate parties on the beach as well. My sources tell me that rap mogul Sean Combs filmed part 2 of his “Luck Be a Lady” commercials at his mansion on the private and exclusive Star Island yesterday. In addition to employing extra security, Sean reportedly installed cell phone blockers to prevent anyone from tweeting pictures. You might recognize some of the guys from the Ciroc commercial in the pic below.

Jim Jones Accused of Stealing Drake’s Bomber Jacket Design
Beyonce and Dipset rapper Jim Jones both have something in common.
The 35-year-old rapper whose fading Hip Hop career peaked in 2006 with the release of his only hit (“We Fly High”) is being accused of ripping off one of Canadian rapper Drake’s leather jacket designs.
The two jackets do look very similar when placed side by side. The only difference seems to be the fur trim on the hoodie.
Drake recently released his limited edition OVO CDN bomber jacket which retails for a whopping $4,000 USD! The jacket features luxury buffalo leather, a silk-linked interior and a detachable fox fur trim along with real gold-plated hardware. According to Punchbowl blog, the jacket is available for purchase beginning on December 28, in Drake’s hometown, as well as in New York, Tokyo and Osaka.
Now Jim Jones is also hawking a black leather bomber jacket for $175, made from cheaper materials with a design that is similar in almost every detail to Drake’s limited edition OVO jacket.
