Ah yes, the style icons in Tinseltown have been waiting on pins and needles this week for the long awaited annual 10 Best Dressed Stars list of People Magazine. Hmm….who do you think made the cut? You will probably notice that there are few if any surprises, but let’s keep in mind there are only 10 slots to fill, and yes, I am sure there was some disappointment in Hollywood once the names were announced. Not surprisingly at all, Sarah Jessica Parker hit the list for probably her umpteenth year in a row, and was chosen due to her ‘expert eclectic style’ and I love that. Anne Hathaway has been wowing designers ever since she broke it big in ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ and she made the cut, along with Charlize Theron, Rihanna, Eva Mendes, and of course Kate Hudson. Heidi Klum hit the list for being ‘Model Chic’ and one surprise I noted was Fergie, who was described as a ‘Refined Rocker’. I don’t think she has any style ‘issues’ per se, however, she wouldn’t make a top 10 in my books. Another surprise came from Gwyneth Paltrow’s appearance on the list, and she was chosen for her evolution in the fashion world this year, having ‘revved up her classic look’ as we see here now less preppy and more in the thigh baring mini dresses and mongo heels. What DID surprise me the most was seeing Michelle Obama’s name appear, and her style was defined as ‘Classy and Confident’ and again, though I am not saying she is not a very well dressed lady, there were a few Tinseltown style queens that were probably a little pouty about being beat out by Michelle Obama. Those pouts I am sure are hanging on the lips of Victoria Beckham and Katie Holmes, two infamously impeccably styled women that well….just didn’t make the cut this year. Sorry girls. Better luck next year.

Here is a shot of Rihanna performing at the HP Pavilion in San Jose this past Saturday night. This is one girl who is really into the color pops this season as she has been showing up at events with the brightest looks, and here her nails are doing all the talking for her color choices. But I am wondering why this choice of nail color however when she’s got an obvious clash with the rest of her ensemble. It may be just because she is one busy girl. Rihanna is in talks now with Ne-Yo, along with a few other collaborators, to help him finish his latest album ‘Year of the Gentleman’. Ne-Yo is trying to wrap it up as he prepares to go on tour with Alicia Keys and Jordin Sparks and the album is described as ‘not exactly urban, not exactly pop’. Hm, sounds like a great team for an album with a unique sound. And Rihanna is always a good choice for anything musically inclined these days. She may not have time to change her nail color, but that is one talented girl.

Here is Rihanna singing live for her ‘Believe’ Charity event at Ruby Skye last week in San Francisco. And it seems that this girl is not too shy to play around with the color palette, is she? She is certainly capable of brightening any room with this getup, you know, the hot pink outfit paired with the hot pink lips. But what is WITH the green nails? Eesssh! Oh no….not one of those good choices I don’t think. But she’s been a little busy with her major tour schedule these days, so maybe she just experimented and didn’t have much time to ‘undo’ the damage. No, I didn’t think so either. She’s also been a little busy fighting off rumors that she and Chris Brown are in the coupley way. They walked the carpet together last week as the Kids’ Choice Awards, but they are both adamant to say they are ‘not in a relationship or anything’. Rihanna’s camp hasn’t said boo about it, but the Brown camp is denying it pretty hard. Hmmm….I wonder. Doth he protest too much?

Rihanna didn’t let any of her fans down when she appeared @ the 9th NRJ Music Awards in Cannes, France on Saturday. This singer was recognized for both her fashion sense, and her amazing talent. Rihanna won International Song of the Year for “Don’t Stop the Music” which came of no surprise to her fans. This 19 year old singer also stood out on the red carpet in a gorgeous Grecian inspired one shoulder dress that was gathered and ruched in all the right places, showing off her gorgeous figure. She finished the outfit off with some sexy ankle strapped heels and her signature chic do. Is it just me or is her hair getting shorter? Either way, it is sleek and sexy, and now she is wearing it short enough to show off her star tattoos on her neck as well as her three ear piercings. Just when you think she can’t get prettier!!

The January 2008 issue of Allure Magazine will give Rihanna fans something to look forward to after the holidays. In this issue Rihanna gives a beautiful photo spread and speaks candidly in an interview geared to clearing up some of the rumors swirling about her. There is talk that she is hooked up with Josh Hartnett and she clarifies that it is simply a matter of her people and his people having each other’s contact info. So if that’s the case, why were there kissy pictures out about them after she ran into him at Pink Elephant? She also makes it clear that while she doesn’t hate hate Beyonce, they aren’t friends friends either. Ok, whatever that means. On her new hairstyle, it was her own choice and one that she made against her label’s advice. She wanted to stand out as an artist and it seems she’s done just that.

You have to love when you catch celebs going hog wild with their diets. So here we have Rihanna mowing down on a pile of fries, and I am loving it. And no, not in the catty let’s hope you get fat kind of way either. It’s clear she doesn’t give a you know what about who’s watching her, and that’s a good thing! Yes, even the beautiful people have their fries and eat them too. And that’s good, with so many crash diets and eating disorders on the rise, it’s nice to see a beautiful person swaying from the Hollywood organic norm. How does she do it? Perfect skin, perfect body, perfect everything. Maybe what we aren’t seeing is the 3 hour workout that follows, but hey, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! You go girl!
