Hit R&B couple Rihanna and Chris Brown Take Home the Prize

The biggest winners of this year’s American Music Awards are hit R&B couple Rihanna and Chris Brown. Rihanna, famous for hits like “Umbrella” and “Disturbia,” won two awards in the Favorite Soul/R&B Female Artist and Favorite Pop/Rock Female Artist categories. On the other hand, Chris took home the awards for Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist, Favorite Soul/ R&B Male Artist, and Artist of the Year.

In terms of their relationship, Chris Brown has said that he’s fond of Rihanna but that, “Our relationship is growing. We started off as friends and we’re getting a little bit closer now… But I don’t want to let down all my girlfriends, so all the ladies out there, I still love y’all!” Dispelling rumors that they’ll be moving in together, the “With You” crooner added, “I’m 19! I barely want my friends to stay over more than three days.”

Meanwhile, Rihanna and Chris Brown have gotten entangled with some paparazzi trouble. Rihanna and Chris Brown are being sued by paparazzo Luis Santana after Rihanna’s bodyguards allegedly beat him and broke his camera. Reports state that, “a photographer with tbt, a St. Petersburg alternative publication, is suing the R&B singers, saying their bodyguards beat him and broke his camera.” The paparazzo filed the $1 million lawsuit, which “also names the bodyguards and a St. Petersburg club where the attack allegedly occurred May 6.” However, Chris Brown’s attorney, Kenneth Meiselas, have said that neither Chris Brown nor his security guards were involved in the incident.

However, the couple’s legal troubles don’t seem to be affecting their star power since they’ve been spotted performing in a variety of gigs. Rihanna and Chris Brown have been touring the world and performing in countries in Asia like the Philippines and Singapore where the Barbados gal performed hits like “Pon de Replay,” “Don’t Stop the Music,” “Take a Bow,” “Shut Up and Drive,” “Good Girl Gone Bad,” “Hate That I Love You,” and “Umbrella.” Chris, who wrote Rihanna’s hit song “Disturbia,” has mentioned that he wrote two songs for Britney Spears. He said, “I actually wrote a couple songs for her (Spears) now. We’re on the same label, so all the executives heard the records and they love the records.”

Celebrity Fashion: Rihanna

On Wednesday (December 10), Rihanna took to the red carpet and performed at Capital FM’s Jingle Bell Ball in London, England.

Rihanna is always one for making unique fashion choices. Her latest? Smiley-faced fingernails!

The question for you, celebrity fashion fans, is …What do you think of Rihanna’s nail polish? Love it or hate it?

For me, I love the nails with a passion “a smilling sensation” and the outfit looks great. Also I love the jumpsuit and the necklace.

Enjoy the pictures of Rihanna at Capital FM’s Jingle Bell Ball (December 10).
