Rihanna Banned..!!

Islamic leaders in Malaysia are pressing ahead with calls to ban Rihanna (boo hoo) from performing in the country - just weeks after she promised to tone down her forthcoming live concert. The Malaysian government has strict rules when it comes to female performers, artists are required to cover up from their shoulders to their knees. The PAS has urged authorities who issue concert permits in the primarily Muslim country to reject the organizer’s application. (LINK)

Ruth Osman along with Trevor John on the piano , stunned the audience last night with a breath taking performance. Why in the world this lady ain't get an award. Her performance was the stunner of the evening, simply incredible. Guyanese talent at its best, no question about it. Her vocal range is astonishing and her voice is simply classic.

Rhianna gets Award for " Catchiest Song Ever"

Rihanna achieves yet another major honor! Shit. This time her platinum-selling hit “Umbrella” was named catchiest tune of all time in a new survey. How major is that when you consider all the catchy tunes she had to compete with like “Ring the Alarm” or “Superman that Hoe”?

" RIHANNA’s
hit song UMBRELLA has been named the catchiest song ever in a new survey.The song, which topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for seven weeks and the U.K. singles charts for ten weeks last summer (07), beat off stiff competition to take the title. Abba’s 1976 hit Dancing Queen came second in the poll, while YMCA by the Village People was awarded third place." boo hoo.
