Rihanna Bikini Photos: So Transparent!

December 30, 2011


Amid reports that she may be rekindling a romance with Chris Brown, a svelte Rihanna hit the beach in her native Barbados, without a care in the world.

Without much covering her up, too, it turned out.

Hanging out with her little brother at the time, the star was in a family-oriented mood, but certain images that resulted from her romp in the sea were anything but.

Rihanna’s orange bikini turned transparent in the water. Take a look:

Rihanna makes a splash in the Caribbean.

She may be bad, but she’s perfectly good at it, and if Rihanna pictures like these surface as a result, we doubt many people will be complaining too loud.

Where In the World is Lindsay Celebrating New Year’s Eve?

LindsayLohan1230.jpg

While all the stars are in Las Vegas, will Lindsay Lohan be ringing in 2012 in Dubai? It was reported earlier this week that Lindsay would be partying it up in Dubai to celebrate the new year, but now sources are saying this is definitely not true!

The false claims, made by an overseas party planning company, have Lindsay outraged, according to a source. Lindsay’s rep had this to say to the media: “Lindsay is not going to Dubai, nor had she ever considered doing so. She will be spending New Year’s Eve in Los Angeles with a few close friends and family.” Lindsay is said to be very unhappy that her name was being used to promote a New Year’s Eve party cruise on the Queen Elizabeth 2, and her legal team is taking care of the issue with a cease and desist letter. Party girl press like this is not what the starlet needs after so many legal problems lately, so it’s understandable that Lindsay would be so upset.

Taylor Kinney and Lady Gaga Step Out, Go Public


Lady Gaga’s officially going public with boyfriend Taylor Kinney.

With a series of just-released photos in which she makes no attempt to hide her affection, the 25-year-old is finally acknowledging what we’ve known for months: She and The Vampire Diaries‘ Taylor Kinney are an item, and a cute one at that.

Sources say they’re taking it slow, but definitely going strong.

Gaga, who first met Kinney on the set of her “You and I” music video (below) when he starred as her love interest and makeout partner, casually slung her arm over her boyfriend’s shoulder as they strolled along a California beach.

While the pair appear cozy and are getting along fabulously, a source close to Gaga insists they’re not super serious – mostly because of the strains of her career.

“They’re hooking up and getting to know each other,” explains the insider. “Gaga can’t be too committed because she works 24/7. But she thinks he’s the best!”

Good to hear. Let’s just hope they make time for each other!

Source: Russell Brand, Katy Perry in “Massive” Fight


Katy Perry and Russell Brand are so in a fight.

No, seriously, it’s bad. So much so that the spouses of a little more than one year parted on expletive terms and spent the holidays 7,000 miles apart.

After planning to fly her family via private jet to husband Brand’s London hometown for the holidays, Perry changed course, opting to fly to Hawaii.

The reason? “They had a massive fight,” an insider says. “She was like, ‘F–k you. I’m going to do my own thing.’ Russell replied, ‘Fine, f–k you too.’”

Which explains why, come December 25, the record-setting singer was seen splashing in the Pacific Ocean off the island of Kauai sans wedding ring.

Meanwhile, Brand was catching up with some pals in a pub in chilly Coverack, Cornwall, without his ring on either. They’re definitely having problems.

“They haven’t split up just yet, but things aren’t good,” acknowledged the source, adding that the divorce rumors are untrue, but rooted in reality.

“The fighting is getting worse.”

At issue? Among other things, explains another source: “Katy doesn’t think that Russell respects her parents’ Christian beliefs or her friends.”

Jeremy London to Be Charged in Wife Attack


Troubled actor Jeremy London will be charged with domestic violence following an alleged attack on his spouse in Palm Springs last month, reports say.

Area cops were on the lookout for London to question him about the fight, during which Jeremy allegedly injured estranged wife Melissa Cunningham.

The ex-couple was fighting over custody of their son, when London flew off the handle, then fled without a trace, leading authorities to search for him.

He’s communicated with police via his lawyers.

The Riverside County D.A.’s office has made a decision to charge Jeremy London with misdemeanor domestic violence. If convicted, he may face a year in jail.

A rep for the star said, “The allegation is false and no such abuse occurred.”

“It is unfortunate that the Riverside DA’s Office has elected to reward Melissa’s malicious behaviour and disregard the facts regarding the incident.”

Beyonce Gives Birth to Tiana-May Carter … According to Twitter


Rumors about Beyonce giving birth are currently blowing up Twitter, but have yet to be confirmed by the singer, husband Jay-Z, or any reputable source for that matter.

So … there you are.

The (very possibly made-up) consensus seems to be that Beyonce welcomed a girl into the world this week, and that the little bundle of joy is named Tiana-May Carter.

Twitter makes up cute names at least.

The rumors we’ve read online – and again, these are just rumors from social media, not even celebrity gossip sources – say she was taken to St. Luke’s Hospital in New York City, and overnight, word spread that she had delivered a daughter.

Multiple outlets have picked up the story, but all cited the growing buzz on Twitter as the source and nothing more. She’s due in February, so it’s probably baseless chatter at this point, but also not impossible for her to give birth early.

Either way, the final countdown – which began after Beyonce’s pregnancy reveal at the MTV VMAs – to the birth of the most famous celebrity babies in years is either over, or close to being over. We’ll keep you posted as we learn more!

The Celebrity of the Year: Kim Kardashian!


We’ve reached the top of our Celebrity of the Year countdown. Or, as many might say, given the winner, the bottom.

The THG staff has spent the last couple weeks breaking down the most newsworthy stars of 2011, from Lindsay Lohan at #10, up to the impressive comeback of Jennifer Lopez at #9, to the popularity of Selena Gomez at #8 and the hilarity of viral video stars at #7.

There was the hit-generating Katy Perry at #6, Justin Bieber and his hair at #5, those gorgeous British Royal Family members at #4, Charlie Sheen and his winning ways at #3 and the most charitable, eccentric celeb of all at #2, Lady Gaga.

So who remains? The woman who accomplished both everything and nothing in 2011, our #1 selection of the year… Kim Kardashian!

Kim Kardashian Motivational Poster

For the record, this is a business decision. We do not like Kim Kardashian. We wish we never had to write a word about Kim Kardashian. We fail to see why a single human being is a fan of Kim Kardashian. But the facts speak for themselves, and no celebrity made more headlines in 2011. Consider:

In JANUARY: Kim kicked off the new year by debuting a single that made Kim Zolciak sound like Whitney Houston. She also met the family of Kris Humphries for the first time and premiered the highly-rated, critically-lambasted Kourtney & Kim Take New York.

In February: She starred in a Super Bowl commercial and whined over her latest nude photo spread. It also came out that she and her family made $65 million in 2010.

In MARCH: She appeared in a Midori ad campaign, as buzz first circulated that she might marry Humphries.

In APRIL: She lashed out at Turkish Cosmo and posed on many red carpets in a cleavage-baring dress.

In MAY: She came out with a new fragrance, got angry over the misuse of her bare boobs and, oh, got engaged to Humphries.

In JUNE: She appeared on the covers of multiple tabloids and defended herself against rumors of infidelity.

In JULY: She took photos of herself in Humphries’ hometown and got into trouble for complaining about the Casey Anthony verdict.

In AUGUST: She married Humphries. Perhaps you heard about it.

In SEPTEMBER: She honeymooned with Kris while her publicists plotted how to best announce the upcoming divorce. Someone also tried to purchase the rights to her sex tape.

In OCTOBER: She turned 31 and rumors started to swirl that her marriage was already in trouble. She ended the month by filing for divoce.

In NOVEMBER: She whined and cried and played ignorant as to why anyone would dare questions her motives to marry. She visited Australia and Minnesota and premiered season two of Kourtney & Kim Take New York. Over three million people tuned in.

In DECEMBER: She was considered one of the Most Fascinating People of 2011 by Barbara Walters and will conclude her most prosperous year to date the only way she knows how: by standing around a club in Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve and earning $600,000.
