Rihanna Is Letting The World Know She Is Madly In Love With Chris Brown [Photo]

Rihanna and Chris Brown are definitely back on good terms and RiRi seems like she has never been happier.

Last month the two love birds publicly kiss and hug at last month’s MTV Video Music Awards. There are also some rumors that Chris Brown and his girlfriend Karrueche Tran called it quits after photos surfaced online last week of Beezy getting really close to singer Nicole Scherzinger in a Los Angeles club.

This could be good news for fans who want to see Rihanna and Chris Brown back together, but bad news for those who oppose a reunion.

Yesterday Rihanna liked several of Chris Brown’s photos on Instagram that were posted by fans. The below photo caught her attention the most with the caption “that smile.”

Rihanna was spotted leaving her favourite restaurant Giorgio Baldi last night looking gorgeous. The Bajan fashianista donned white top, strappy sandals, and a black skirt. (Story courtesy Urban Island)

Rough justice: Boyband favourites Rough Copy are kicked off X Factor in visa row

Rough Copy

 The X Factor has got us feeling all discombobulated this morning, following the apparent replacement of Rough Copy with another TWO bands at Judges’ Houses.

After the Boot Camp episode, we were all under the impression that Rough Copy, MK1, GMD3, Mitsotu, Poisonous Twins and Duke had got through to Judges’ Houses.

However, at some point between the two stages, it was discovered that one of the members of Rough Copy “has a visa application currently being considered by the UK Border Agency” and could therefore not leave the country. While they could – but they wouldn’t be allowed back in.

A source told the Mirror at the time: “It’s a total disaster. The band’s progress into the finals was almost a formality and producers were excited about them. But they found out about the visa situation just as they were organising flights.

“They have no option but to axe them from the competition and replace them with another band which has proved a massive headache.”

Kazeem Ajobe

Therefore Triple J – who are now called Union J after adopting a fourth member, soloist George Shelley (who didn’t get through Boot Camp) – and Times Red flew over to Las Vegas to perform in front of Louis Walsh. If you’re wondering why Rough Copy were replaced by two bands rather than one, it’s because there simply wasn’t time to narrow it down.

Louis Walsh said:  “When Rough Copy left, I found it difficult to choose between two groups to fill their place. In the end I invited boyband Triple J to come to Judges Houses, but still felt that as I’d lost such a strong group in Rough Copy that I wanted to make sure the category was the best it could possibly be.

“I asked Gary, Nicole and Tulisa if they minded if I took a seventh act. They were happy as they felt they’d got the right six acts for their Judges Houses trips so I asked Times Red to come along and they said yes.”

“We are all totally gutted by this as the longer we were in the competition the more we felt we had an opportunity to showcase that “sweet but street” urban flava to the whole world that we do right here in London.” – Source Mirror.co.uk

Kate Middleton Lookalike (Heidi Agan) earns £650 a day after quitting £6 an hour Burger King job. (Photos)

Heidi Agan has joined London-based agency Susan Scott Lookalikes in February and has stocked up on some of the Duchess’s most memorable dresses, including the blue Issa dress she wore as she and Prince William announced their engagement, as well as her favorite shoes and accessories.

However Heidi says she won’t be following her lead by being caught topless.

‘I felt really bad for Kate when the photos were published as she was on a private trip with her husband,’ says Heidi.

‘If someone had done that to me I would go to the police. She and William don’t get any time out and they were just trying to be a normal couple. It’s a terrible invasion of their privacy.

Rapper splashes out on private island holiday and designer gifts.

KIM KARDASHIAN can never accuse boyfriend Kanye West of being tight.

The US rapper has set aside $1million — that’s £615,000 — for the reality TV star’s 32nd birthday celebrations next month.

Kanye has also been in regular contact with Kim’s family over the past few weeks to ensure that his party plans go down a treat.

A source said: “Kim has been really down about turning 32 and having two failed marriages behind her and no children, so he wants to make this extra-special.

“Plus it’s her first birthday since they’ve been together as a couple.

“Kanye has never been shy of splashing out on the women he loves, but this time he’s pulling out all the stops with presents.”

He’s not doing badly. So far, Kanye has organised a trip to Pine Cay, a private island in the Turks and Caicos group, with a load of their pals for a special birthday celebration.

Gaga shave

 Lady Gaga is daring to bare -- the back of her head, at least.

On her website Tuesday, the pop star, 26, shared a photo of an especially daring new hairdo, after she shaved off most of the hair on the back of her head.

The "Edge of Glory" singer's strange new look, as she wrote, was meant as a tribute to her friend Terry Richardson's late mom, who passed away Tuesday at the age of 74.

Princess Kate and Princess Diana in style comparison

Looking through iconic photos of Princess Diana on the anniversary of her death on August 31, 1997 reminds us, once again, of how lovable she was. How photogenic, how stylish, how fully alive and still real she seemed in the firestorm of publicity that surrounded her. Her successor, Kate Middleton, now Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, is enormously popular as well, and seems to have achieved some of her departed and dearly missed mother-in-law's grace, adding to it her own tough, polished aplomb. If Diana was a romantic princess, Kate is a professional princess. And if Kate struggles with her weight or her inlaws, none of us expect to hear about it the way we did with Di (and Kate's husband, and his father, and his father's mother are probably thankful for that). Kate Middleton and Princess Diana have both also achieved status as style icons, in very different ways. Their signature looks for some of the same occasions and milestones tell us worlds about both their personalities, the style of their respective decades and the changing faces of womanhood.--Valerie Isakova
